    Wait 6 months, then you can pay $50 more for the same rifle!

    Yep, good thing is, if you go fishing next year, or in 10 years and hook the SKS, it will still be in great shape, with all that Cosmo!!

    Does anyone know how many SKS carbines have been imported into Canada?

    Does anyone know if this price hike is only for the wood stock SKS, or will it affect all including tapco/ATI types?

    My local CTC guy said it would be around $50. For the batch he just ordered ( 50). l would say if they go through with the UN labelling scheme, it may go up a bit more, I hope they do it discretely, if they look like the new TT33 stampings, I won't be buying any more sks!

    All sks rifles are imported as wood stock. They only become tapco/ati'd when an owner chooses to go that route or a business receives some in such bad condition that they can only resell it that new form. So the answer to your question is yes it will affect both, seeing as how all rifles will be imported at a new price and once old supply has completely run out the price adjustment will be the new norm. It'll be the same as today's market except at a new base price.
