I picked up an SLR-105 R at the fun show.  What is it worth?

No box.

Used.  Black finish.  Condition is 96-98%.

SN 7XXX.

No-ban style (threaded muzzle w/break and bayo lug on sight tower, pistol grip - no thumbhole).

Cleaning rod under bbl.

Furniture is all labeled with raised "US".

5 mags.

Mag Pouch.

Ugly Green AK sling.

"MTK-83" scope mount with cantilever.  Says "MADE IN BELARUS".

Cheap Tasco PROPOINT.

It has a decent peep sight installed, but the dude gave me the original rear sight.

Cleaning kit in the butt stock.

UPDATE - thought I'd let you folks know:  I paid $450.  I only had $397 in my pocket.  I had to run around scrounging cash.

Also, thanks for all the info!

$550.00-$600.00 I would say.  That's an opinion based on your description of the rifle without the accessories.

I'd suggest that the value of a true factory no-ban Arsenal, Inc. SLR-105, which would actually be an SLR-105A1, is a tad higher than $600.   They have gone on some of the other dedicated AK Forums for $700.   I believe that you would be able to sell this rifle for $700 as well.   The SLR-105A1 is really the only original factory produced 5.45x39 AK-74 commercial variant available.   Your only other options have been kit builds.

Bulgarian AK-74 parts kits have been heading towards $300 plus $80-$100 for the receiver, plus the cost of the build if you don't do it yourself.

I agree.  Today?  $700 to $750.  The 105 is one of the BEST '74's out there.

Well, then I feel a lot better; picked up a 105 (no rail unfortunately) at an AZ gunshow recently for $650.00 new in the box. Had the "zigzag brake on it too.
I thought that an Arsenal factory build 5.45 would be a good one to grab and now I see it confirmed.
Damn, I love the 74s--

You got a good deal.  IMHO that is the best AK74 clone out there.  You missed out on the cheap mags but at least you can stock up on the cheap ammo.

...and if you DID want a rail on it?  It's not that hard to add one.  You can go two ways:  rivet model (need to replace one rear trunion rivet), or after-build screw model.  EITHER can be purchased from Tantal, both are excellent.

You have the nicest AKS-74 clone I've ever seen.  Sweet!
