For 174 bucks, you really can't go wrong.

They go for around $450+ and they're not all that abundant, so I'd run my ass down there in a hurry, were I you.

Quoted:
I came across a little small town gun shop yesterday while out for a Sunday drive. It was closed, but through the front window I saw a rifle marked as "SKS Paratrooper". Short barreled. Blond stock in like new condition, $174. Bayo had been removed, but lug was still there. I couldn't see the bottom of the gun to see if it had a standard 10 round internal mag or if it was a short barreled SKS D that takes AK mags. Good deal or no? AV1611 out...... Do you really have to ask?? |

Even if it was called an "SKS Widowmaker" it would still be an SKS. Therefore, no-go.

Well, looks like I'm going for it. No, I won't tell where the store is :) I'll just be sure to be there when the store opens.

Would it be shameless to ask for a discount because the bayo is missing?

It is now mine. I got the owner to drop the price from $174 to $164 because the bayo and cleaning rod are missing. At least that was my shameless excuse for dickering with him. The total was $173.02 out the door.
 I love this thing! It's so handy compared to my M59/66 Yugo SKS. It is a Norinco made for civilian export. So, no arsenal mark. Wood is in awesome shape. Only a few light scratches. The bluing is great. The bore is like new. The bolt carrier has some light black spotting, but nothing a little fine steel wool won't buff out.

I've owned two now, and while they aren't my first choice for a 7.62 rifle - I cannot understand the hate folks have for them.

Does it have the stamped or milled trigger guard? I can't view the photos here at work.
Either way, that is a great deal. I paid about the same for mine back in the mid 90s. Mine did not come with a bayonet and the cleaning rod has always been loose. That is probably why yours is missing. |

I don't think they made any milled. It's a made for US export gun, should be a pinned barrel too.
Wish I had one for that price! |

$164 actually
The last owner installed a 1" buttpad extension. I pulled it off the rifle, but the stock screws don't work with the original buttplate. Will have to order a few. AV1611 out...... Quoted:
