I guess, it depends how you look at it. I had one for 12 months, while in Yugoslavian army, almost 40 years ago, very good gun, but there is no way I would pay this kind of money for a knock off. The only original SKS is from Russia. I love my 1951 and 1955 Tula made SKS rifles, and wouldn't ever consider selling them.
Buying non russian SKS never crossed my mind. I must be weird or nuts
I got a good way, i have them ship to my adress in Québec, this save me the QST of 10% then i drive them to my Ontario farm, i give them to my wife ( she has her own RPAL) and this way i avoid the Québec registry, in NH i buy my own firearms (very cool ones indeed) in gunshop near Concord or Merrimack, these one will never come to Canada.
I would trade a minty Polish M-44 for one of these if anyone has buyers remorse.

Come on you guy's...i thought they would have been sold out???
Had to buy another..extra shipping I know as my other has already shipped..
Tradex has put through 78 orders in the last 24 hours..
Probably not all SKS's??
But I wonder how many he got in???
They aren't making any more of these!!!!!
Wow... almost $900 shipped is amazing for these. I remember buying several in the $279-350 range in the early 2000's. Reminds me of $200 Garands and $99 P14's around the same time from Districorp. The good old days...
Keeping it real on the range since before there was a CGN.
