300$ 400$ for a beat up yugo or norinco!! na i will buy a new Saiga

[indyk]

No thanks for 345.00 i will just buy a new saiga 7.62


I still want an sks but refuse to pay panic price !!
i might just be S.O.L
why didn't i get one a few years ago when i could have paid 90 to 150 for a great one


Im 31 and havn't seen alot of gun pricing trends i my lifetime or havn't paid attention. Do you guys think panic prices will go down, for instance
will an sks forever be 300 to 400 for a nice one? 250 for a P.O.S?
500 for a WASR?

Personally, I think it is only going to get worse. You think the $ are bad now, wait until the first gun control bill is scheduled for a vote.

I've got my SKS up for sale locally for $350... I think the days of $200 SKSs have gone.

Anybody know of a place to get Saigas?

thanks IndyK...I'm still a plinker, so I can't reply to your PM. Also, $600 is a bit steep...

Most the guys that post on here ask top $$$ because they figure some on will pay for it. Most people see the price and figure its a deal because its used. I buy most things new. because the extra 20$ is worth it! IMO. Most forums are like this as far as the over priced used guns. And Its getting worse as people try to sell guns they bought just to resale for more money later.

I bought a VZ-58 and lots of ammo and mags before the prices went up! I have it figured that I saved over 300$ under current prices on the same Items.

I bought up some "junk" $250 Yugo SKS (look pretty nice to me after I cleaned em up and such) because of the panic. Not because I had to have them, but because I expect the prices to continue to rise and the value to go up. I also bought nice black stocks and magazines for them.

If the prices don't go up - oh well. I've had fun with my dad's Yugo for the past 15 years and it's a great, fun shooter.

yes

The deals slip right past me!!!
