Unfired Chinese sks-d still in the bag

I'll never understand people, these are not nearly as nice as the unissued russians floating around.

I needed one for the X39 collection so I paid 450$ for my D, and it came with a full crate of ammo :) , The Rasheed is way more finicky than my SKS-D, and it cost 1000$. But tinkering with guns to get the gremlins out is as much fun as shooting. I found AK Pmags to drastically improve the SKS-D reliability.

Thanks for the info...it has been so long since I looked at these that I now remember the two different magazine release mechanisms.
The one on the bottom with folding stock is completely different.
I will have to pull them all out to see what is there.
When it is an "m" does that mean it was made by a different manufactured?

I believe it's the Monte Carlo aka Sporter models, yours is basically an M with a D stock if that makes any sense.

Going back on topic, your rifles should sell like hot cakes as long you stay in a reasonable price range.
 
It isn't an M. Those came with Monte Carlo stocks. Hence the M for Monte.

This is a D with the same release as a SKS. These should be stamped Made in China by XY or XZ (can't remember which of those two).

The spike SKS-D and the no bayo SKD-D has the AK mag release. The Blade has the standard SKS mag latch.

This is not an SKS-M with a D stock. I have the exact same version, with the same mag release and same inscription on the left side of the receiver. They came from China like this one as pictured.

So what price would you put on this version? I think $600.00 would be the top price myself.

I bought mine at a gun show 3 years ago for $250 ish. Got it for a steal. The mag release isn't as quick as the AK release for obvious reasons.

I have a hard time justifying anything over $500 for any SKS-D.

If you're looking to do rocking fast mag changes like an AK, this one won't. If you are looking for a harder to find version of an SKS-D series, as made by China, this one is harder to find. The American SKS nuts just figured out this version even existed not too long ago. I think we have more of this type than they do.
 
I have an SKS-D that I purchased new in or around 2001. It takes AK mags and has no bayonet or mount. I'll try to post some pics later. Also, does anyone have any idea what a VZ52/57 in 7.62x39 is worth? It is new and unfired ( I guess test fired at the factory)side folding blade bayonet and 10 round mag pinned to 5-as per the regulations here in the people's democratic republic of Canada.
 
Iunno I sold an ak release version for $750 so I see no reason this shouldn't get a bit less

I like my MC5D with this release type because it's a bit shorter barrel than normal SKS
