sks-d

I have a deal on one of these (takes AK mags) for $300 with the thumbhole stock and wide forend,16" barrel. no bayo lug or cleaning rod. marked Norinco I think, and 98-99% easy

this a good deal? I do not want the gun, but am wondering if I can resell at $50 or so profit

 

[micmacman]

its not a D its a M,and $300 isnt bad,should be able to squeeze $350 out of it for resale

Norinco made these,the D has a folding bayo and a more traditional stock,the M comes in a thumb hole or Monte Carlo style,no bayo just a nub

My SKS-M

I picked mine up back in '95 for $179 NIB, I didn't realize they were going for so much more now! Maybe I should sell it at the next gun show... As the photo shows, it was made in 1994 just before the evil Clinton gun ban went into effect. Cool rifle ! I shot my first deer with it back in 1998.

i have a nice M,still need a D,mine only likes Chinese mags but is a awsome shooter

 

[micmacman]

nice rifle GH,i wish mine had the Monte stock,but the TH stock has grown on me and im finally comfortable with it

gunhorde, congrats.... venison just taste better when shot with a militay caliber.

You might get $350 for it, around here that's getting on the high side for a normal M... IMO they are well worth it though.

 

[micmacman]

around these parts $350 is the norm,,,,you figure if you pay $300 online after shipping and xfer fee your real close to $350 anyhow,under $300 is a great deal

the best deal on an sks-M I have gotten was a package deal I found on gunbroker about a year and a half ago. NIB sks-M $367, it came with 2-100 round chinese drums and 6-30 round chinese mags w/chrome followers still sealed 3 to a bag.

I saw an M with a thumbhole stock for sale at a pawn shop in Pulaski, VA today. They only wanted $1,250.00 for it! I think I will take mine there next week and see how much they will pay me for it. I'll be happy to take one-half of what they are asking for theirs. It only seems fair to allow them to re-sell it and make $625.00 profit. I honestly don't know where they come up with their prices.

 

[micmacman]

i tell you what,pawn shops are still a great source for deals,the idiots that want outrageous prices for some things,grossly under price on others

i made two awsome pawn shop buys just recently,and i will always stop in and check,50 wasted trips through the door is well worth the one that pays off

Buy it and keep it!
They will be more in the future. I have a D, but still need an M.

I have a M and w/ a five round mag it is by far the most comfortable sks I have to shoot. I love the thumb hole and wide forearm. It is not as easy as an AK to put the mag in, w/ the 5 rd you have to hold your mouth just right. W/ pratice it is not a problem. What I like about the 5 rd mag is being able to get my arm under the rifle for the rock solid support.

Here are some pics of SKS "D" model I picked up recently. It is near mint, still had the oringinal grease in the gas tube. It also came with a sling and oiler. It was $375 OTD.

Wow Bingo, beautiful D. Look at the quality. I'd like to see a range test on that one.

 

[leadpusher]

what about a sks-63? does anyone have one of these?

Of all of the SKS variations I have believe or not I have never shot one of them. Maybe someday I will try one.

Ran out to a gun store with a coworker during lunch today and spotted an M and a few standard Norinco SKS's, all looked they were just pulled from the box for the first time.
Asking prices were $490 and $300 respectively.

Had to pass on them.
