    Just curious what was the price of it then?

    This happen every ~6 months or so if you hadn't noticed.
    It worked the first few times, but now I got more than 1 SKS :P

    As far as I am concerned, another SKS never hurts though!

    Dunno, all the modern/semi modern (aka FN, M14, G3 etc.) are all prohibs. Virtually all issued rifles now are full autos, and since converted autos are illegal once the supply of old bolt-actions and early semi-autos run out that's it.

    They made quite a few so probably they will be around for a loooong time! But soon us youngens will be telling our kids "Man I remember walking in to gun shops and seeing the walls lined with SKSs" Just like my dad tells me about Lee-Enfields and K98s.

    Just fear mongering , trying to boost sales
    Pre-orders are horrible for everyone involved. They never go smooth. We will not be doing a pre-order to bankroll this project.
