Black SKSes

[MiG25]

In the early 90's, the Gunrunner had ads for SKSes with black stocks, either painted or bedliner for $60, anybody seen one in the wild?

No response? I'm guessing most are like me and don't remember this at all. You're sure they were SKS?

There were VZ52 and 52/57 with Bed-liner stocks. The stocks were beat to ####, I think that’s why the did them dirty like that.

Yes. It was nearly 30 years ago, did you read the Gunrunner? I bought my first SKS in 1995, regular Chinese versions were $75 and SKS-D's were $120.

$60 and $99 I recall.

Not at Milarm.

Milarm had 3 Russky for $200.

1 new chinese SKS and a case of 1440rds silver box for $130.00

Upon reflection, the pricing was directly related to the US import ban of chinese arms and ammunition after Norinco sold the AKs and APCs to the LA gangs...

The US importers had to dump some 100,000 guns and their ammo somewhere and we benefited.
