mmmmmmm I tought #76 was mine ?!?!?! I call nov 23... and send a email at 6h your time !!! Or maybe he choose me a better one![]()
Weird , I have confirmation from Jacques............34 and 76 have my name on them.
This could get interesting.
He has two #76's on his listing, so maybe you both got one,,,one unissued, one refurb. Same price, tho, which I thought was odd..
Jacques just has a sale on 1954 non-refurbed (and unfired, unissued) Tulas.... he got an inordinate amount of 1954's in his recent shipment. To move them quickly, he has them on for refurb prices. One of the guys above (Duff350 or shooterbuck) will simply get another non-refurbished 1954 that hasn't been posted yet. No big deal, they're all mint.

Fellas, all is well but in fact I am not getting the two that I asked for. Jacques sent me a PM this morning apologizing for the mistake
and will be selecting two other 54 non refurbs and sending me the pics so I can see for myself before buying. Mistakes happen, customer service is what makes the difference when they do. I think by all accounts Jacques is doing it right. Admitting the mistake and working with me to make it right. That's all a guy can ask for.
Shooterbuck
Will take time before get value but eventually the supply of nice sks will end and the price will go up. Somes years are rarer than others, particulary the earlier 1949. read the Sticky about russian sks, you will find lot of info.Are these collectable? Some of them are listed as rare... Please excuse my SKS noobness, I ordered two from him, a refurb as a shooter but also an unissued 55/56. It is appealing to shoot it as a brand new rifle but will it have any future value?? Just curious. Cheers!
