nice set up but for mine ... if im lucky to get a collector grade , it will remain unchanged and unfired .
I ordered 2 for that reason. One will get fired, the other stays a virgin.. in my hands anyway.

shoot off the case of ammo that's been looking for 3 months
was in there the other day buying some 7.62x39 and some 30/30 ammo , I asked when they were coming in and the guy went on the computer , said any time now , and (which I find interesting) that "MOST" were sold, it's no longer "ALL" were sold !

Well, I'm about ready to cancel my order, which was placed in early Feb. I've acquired a VZ-58 and an -858 in the meantime, so now I can pour my cash into those two holes.
Even better than owning a boat!
Patience Grasshopper. You'll probably never be able to get a Russian for that price again. I wouldn't cancel the order - your closer now than ever so wait it out.
for whatit's worth...
I was In SIR in Winnipeg a couple weeks back (end Jul) and asked about the yugo SKS shipment they were supposed to get in awhile ago. They told me they have 2 shipments of 600/shipment due in. One "any day now" which has all been spoken for, and the second had about 150 of them spoken for, due in after the new year.
Of course...that was a counter guy...

FWIW, I was talking to someone that I know that works there part time. I mentioned this large shipment of Russian SKS, and he said he was told by his boss that it is not Russian, but Chinese made ones.
I confirmed with the importer, Bell, that they are indeed RUSSIAN.
So it always pays to be a bit distrustful of counter guys.
i too have heard from the counter guy and he said its not chinese nor yugo nor russian but infact its albanian .:

I heard that there are no sks's at all but they are really imperal blasters and they are still on the ship from the dagabah system!!
