When buying an sks are we worried about if it's rare and keep it for best? I see the 1949 model go for a bit more to the hardcore collector but the average joe would sooner just go to Canadian tire or wholesale sports and pay $169
If you can find them for $169, score me a few. They’re running $210-$260 around Calgary right now. Still, an almost indestructible semi-auto that uses uber cheap ammo for under $300 is a deal and a half.
