LOL...there must be a lot of crazy gun guys out there then,,,because i sold my first one after they returned to non prohib status for $1500.00,,it was also a new Canadian Edition,,LOL..and i have 2 more,,and by the end of next week the $1400.00 offer will probably get it,,funny how some putts on here calls me an idiot,,another calls me something else,,maybe it's just that THERES GUYS OUT THERE THAT ACTUALLY HAVE MONEY TO SPEND ON TOYS,,,LOL...some keep your little snide remarks to yourselves,,,let the cash speak for itself,,apparently unlike some people on here,,when i really want something,,i buy it whatever the price if i can afford it,,if you think these things are expensive,,,you'd hate to see my motorcycle collection,,LOL...go price race kit stuff if you REALLY want to see what overpriced is,,
Anybody who pays more than $1000 used 858 is crazy! I understand it's supply and demand but 858 are just an ok shooter anyways. Marginally better than a good sks.. In my opinion. And for $1000 it better be pimped out!
i'll take that 14 offer,,i have no attachement to these,,they are a notch above an SKS,,but thats pretty much it,,but there are people who want this thing for it's collectibility,,the other one will be put up soon too,,after playing with my friends AK's in the US,,it's hard to get excited about an 858 or 958,i can only play with it a few times a year but it's a hell of a nice piece,,wish we could get THOSE here,,but they are just to dangerous for Canada LOL

So lets see here...
1) Non restricted
2) Milled Receiver
3) Points great on target, good ergos
4) Very Reliable
5) Great part's support with pretty much every firearm's retailer in Canada carrying common parts for it
6) Based on a Battle proven / Service Rifle Design
7) More than acceptable accuracy for a semi-auto (3 moa with cheap $.20 30 year old corrosive ammo)
8) Light
If you can name another non-restricted semi-auto rifle in the $1000-$1500 range that shoots as reliably and shoots a proper rifle caliber then I will give you props...
I'm sure a lot of us would love to get ARs but with the current firearm's political landscape we have I don't see a better option other than the 858 and vz58...
Sks?
