Why are SGL31s $1250 on K-Var?

[dominicandemon]

Been waiting for SGL31s to be available again, but why so expensive? Still riding the panic?

SGL31 (Saiga) 5.45x39...

Simple rule of supply / demand. Caveat Emptor.

This is a little off topic but I was looking at the part sets for the AK74 on this site and they state they can't ship them to South Bend. Anyone know why? The rest of the state seems fine.

South Bend has or had some funky regulations I think. I'm not sure what the additional restrictions are, but maybe someone from there will chime in soon. If I'm not mistaken, last year state law was implemented that no longer allows municipalities to enact their own gun laws if they are more restrictive than the state laws. I don't think that some manufacturers/retailers have caught up with that though.

South Bend made their own restrictions that hold no weight under law, but most businesses that are out of state play it on the safe side and won't ship to South Bend regardless. It's really dumb, but hopefully one day it'll phase itself out.

Thanks guys! I was looking at kits on Apex and didn't see anything about restrictions and couldn't figure this out.

They had city ordinances on mag capacity. The states preemption law has invalidated their ordinance. If you want something, I would suggest sending them a copy or try explaining it to them.

Find an FFL just out of South Bend city limits. Oh, and wait for the price to go down.

Thanks, just making sure this was the reason.

What's a good kit price for a ak74? These don't seem too bad to me from what I've seen so far. I know some guys say they were able to get them for around $100 but that was years ago.

that not a horrible price, not great but not horrible.

THe SGL31-95 is the 'new' version of the SGL31-94, which is the folding stock version of the rifle.

The 95 is only like $150 more than the 94 was when they were available pre-panic, so like I said, not 'horrible'.
