Are these new old stock?

Tenda posted on their site:

They are used surplus, not new. "Produced in the late 90s, all in MINT CONDITION, Matching Serials Numbers"

Thanks. It seems like the link on tenda contradicts itself. If they were produced in the 90's barrels would be pinned into the reciever not threaded

I don't seem to be able to get my head around them being in MINT condition but could have have various defects... if there are defects how can they be in MINT condition?

Ppl use the word mint very very very loosely.

Shipping to stocking dealers in 7-10 business days.

how does tenda already have them? Maybe a newer fresher shipment I'm hoping

good point but i think there are from various factories, not all from factory 26 as pictured.

at $550 , it wont sell fast.

I agree, I would have bought one around 400.00, not for 550.00

Kicking myself for cancelling my order from Bullseye a couple years ago. I felt that $189 was a touch too much, and those were near mint. Oh my how this world has changed.....and not for the better.

[FatCatsDad]

Have you priced ammo for these. ?
It's not very attractive.

Hmm, we'll have to see if any vendors offer any decent sales on these. Two for one deal maybe? I may pick up one or two if they do.

 

[Curtton]

i cant see them selling alot at $550. it has to go on sale cos i just sold a russian sks in very good condition with lam stock for $500.

I found more of my Chinese variants of better quality and condition personally, I understand the lore of the Russian background but I haven’t had many worth writing home about.

What was better?

 

[medvedqc]

i still wonder how ti can sell or sold the t81 for those low prices compared to the older sks ...
