You think Lever is the only one doing that? But you are right in a sense that Lever employees always act as if they are doing you a favour. I am not going there anymore, small selection and high prices. Have you checked how much they charge for shipping? I am surprised anybody orders from them online.
so i went to lever arms to buy an sks today

Well that's an interesting opinion.
So you are saying the 97,000 + members on this site should only talk about what site sponsors have to offer ?
This is the firearm & optic forum where gunnutz can discuss the things that make us gunnutz.
We are not hot linking to any non sponsor we are not posting any non sponsors web site or phone # .
Dealers pay advertising fees (as you say) To advertise in the dealer forum .
I don't think Lever is dumping their SKS's . They just had a sale that's all . You can't compare your SKS rifles to Lever SKS rifles
No one expects a collector grade rifle for $150. Believe it or not a lot of people just want cheap rifle to go with the cheap ammo
The surplus SKS is the Lee Enfield of the 21st century . And with so many of them in Canada it will be a long time before the appreciate in value .
The $150 SKS is the $29. Lee Enfield of the 1960's.

I could not agree with you more. Maybe the Westrifle boys will loose the arrogance towards other dealers that sell the same product.There are dealers that need CGN as a selling tool and there are dealers that don't.
I have no dog in this fight but-
I had been thinking of buying an SKS for a while and even with prices of $ 200-250 I had been holding off.
Lever had their sale so I bought one. Even with shipping it was less than $200. Didn't need anything fancy, just a shooter.
I found their ordering process different, but obviously it works for them. The person I dealt with was, while not friendly, efficient.
I got my rifle quickly and with a quick inspection looks in good shape with matching numbers.
My only complaint is I asked for a 1953 and got a 1952. Oh well. Maybe they didn't have a '53.
Not enough to make a big deal about. At least I can say my rifle is older than me!

Shouldn't a Mod be modifying that post & informing the member of the rules
He should have posted it like
htp://www.leverarms.om/ammo/rifle/...corrosive.html
That way it is not hot linked & no one can find out what it is

It is obvious to me the OP is talking about quality not the price of the rifles. And that’s why Westrifle with multiple pics of every rifle in stock is much more superior to any other on line store that doesn’t let you see what you’re buying. Just my 00.2
Pictures only tell part of the story not the whole story. The best way to buy anything is in person, then there is no disappointment. Lots of great "Quality SKS's" accross Canada from Home Hardware to Canadian Tire and all gun stores in between.

Glad you put a smiley in your post, I might have lost all respect for your opinion. Exit stage left shaking head & muttering obscenities.
Terrible store! I have been there many times, hoping my bad experiences were just coincidence, but I can't say they were. I find the staff to be extremely rude. I believe the only thing keeping them in business, is the prices they have on ammo and the SKS. By the way, you can get an SKS from Italian for $199 as well, AND THEY ARE ALREADY CLEAN AND DEGREASED!
It's a gun shop. What the heck do you people want, a friggin B.J. And a latte?
I think part of this might be due to how some of you people look... Maybe the other men aren't showing you respect because you're "low T", if you get my drift.
Go in and say what you've got to say, get your gun and go home. I don't go into a gas station and ask to touch all the smokes. Frig...
