No I didn't buy any. I am more into the bolt actions now than the semi autos. Besides I was just looking at an SKS for $249 less than a month ago on SOG. I can't bring myself to even entertain such prices three weeks later :big shock:

:lol: For less than the cost of two of them you could buy a Garand.

That is what I really want :twisted:. I should just cash in my 22 ammo and a couple boxes of Tide and I could get one :lol:.

From what I hear the Tide alone might do it :)

The news said so, it must be true :) Or a plot by Tide to boost sales :)

Maybe the Tide lovers have a feeling that the government is going to try to take all their Tide away and that is fueling the frenzy :lol:

Someone on this Forum a while back corrected us about the SKS. it is not a rifle it is a Carbine. :2cents:
If I were you at that price I would by one of each, and see what one you like the best. Hell at that price
by two of each. :chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles:

Oh one other thing. :welcome2: :welcome2: :welcome2: to the club
