Was wondering for those who have received your Russian SKS does it come with box?

Saw one on youtube and the poster claim its brand new (not sure if its refurbished because it has black bolt) but it does comes in a box with oiler bottle / sling etc).:confused:

The box you see in your picture is used and supplied by the USA importers, not Canada. My SKS came with standard accessories and wrapped in cardboard sheeting plus shrink wrapped. The Americans have turned into major SKS collectors as the Clinton Administration banned importing and the prices there have jumped to $700 or more at gun shows, having the USA box, for a seller, is an additional bonus.

Thanks for all those that replied!

I am still waiting for my to arrive and saw that video so I was just wondering!

Anyway, Norseman: that is not the box came with the Russian sks every CGNer knows about Yugos you guys bought so you can't cheat us (LOL).

There was a thread on the survival forum someone buried some rifles / ammo looks like that the box you've got is the perfect candidate...........is the box for sale?:D

Thanks vettefever333,

That make sense because for around a couple of hundred dollars I don't see any reason why our importers has to to so much to dress up surplus rifles.

The rifle in the video seems in very good refurbished condition (looks like new) so do you think the sks that can be bought South of the border may be in nicer condition than here?
