Yes I am thinking of selling my Polish underfolder. I just wanted peoples opinions on a price.

Its a Lancaster built polish underfolder on a Armory USA 1.6mm receiver. The bore on it I would describe is excellent plus, I would even say new except for the 200rnds I have fired through it. Gun Kote blacks and EVEN HAS A MATCHED BAYONET!(I found the one matching the rifle here on the forum ) I would include 1 mag and a sling + recoil buffer. I would say this rifle is near mint. This has to be the most accurate AK I have ever fired, so it kinda hurts me to get rid of it.

What would a good price for something like this be? Keep in mind its a 1.6mm receiver with a bayonet/scabbard matched to the gun.

That rifle new a few months ago was ~ $650, i see those selling for $1050 NIB at a local shop. Its hard to say, personally i wouldnt pay over $800 for it... Hell, i bought a milled UF for $1000, when these were $650. Sky is the limit

AF when they had them was selling them for around $750-800 before the panic, now I see them selling on average for around 800-850 without 1.6mm receiver.

I wish I had seen a Lancaster UF for $650, havnt seen any prices like that for like 2 years :(
Anyhow, thanks for your opinion.

Same local fun store had polish Vector UFs for$650, i remember the lancasters were the same price. Hell, i guess its been 9 months. I'm in south MS. I still can't comprehend a polish UF for $1050, but they are selling.

I think you should set the price based on your opinion of the life expectancy of the rifle.

$1000 for sarcastic people.
$900 for down to earth.

That Lancaster Polish UF 1.6mm is an excellent rifle. At this point in time I'd say at least $1000. Maybe more to a collector because of the matching bayo/scabbard serials to the gun.

I don't need a Lancaster built Polish underfolder. I built a couple myself ... for less than $300 each.
But I am surprised you own a stamped receiver rifle. Are the "pins" tight?

I pick up two Lancaster UF AKM rifle years ago for about 620.00 each, i have seen them at recent gun shows for over 9 hundred which was a big surprise. These guns are some of the better of the bread, excellent finish and look real hansom with the original wood forearm and red bakelite PG. I have examples from vector and a few others that don't even come close in build quality when you compair them to Lancaster AKM.
