Russian SKS45 long thread.

Well: I got my letter asap, and if from what I have read about Russian refurbs and if their condition match other companies: VG - Very Good - May have several small marks in the wood, and some blueing worn on the edges of the metal. May have some slight surface rust, then I think we all should be pretty happy. I am using the time to order in scope mounts etc. I am not good at waiting though.

relax jay , pour another beer in the pan .:D

with SIR , it depends on how you place the order , if you place it by phone , they will give you ref number and they may or may not also send you a letter.

for those who placed it thru the internet , a letter are mailed to you .

so regardless how you placed your order , the important thing is the ref number/back order number , make sure you have one cos thats in the order the SKS45 are shipped out . if you dont have one you can call and they can check .

They'll get here when they get here. I'm sure the dealers want to sell them as soon as they can. Only the importer can give an ETA, and that can (obviously) change.

Ha ha ha, there "are" 3 beer in that pan if you look closely... Also, I did my ordering with SIR over the net, and DIDN'T receive a letter... All I have is my "Order Confirmation" that I printed out after placing my order. There is NO back ordered/reference #, just my Confirmation #: which is a combo of the date the order was placed & my postal code...

Can anyone else confirm the same on their order?

And yes Stevo, we are all big kids! ha ha ha Save for the fact there were NO minivans when I was a kid, we had to make due with stationwagons!!!:runaway:

Cheers
Jay

Yes, my online order contained only the confirmation number. The fact I have a confirmation number is proof positive that peer pressure is a b*tch. :D

I know!! I blame you, all these fine CGN'rs and the $169 price tag. (Oh and the wife has been a miserable SOB lately so a gift to self for putting up with her was in order). BUT DON'T TELL HER I SAID THAT!!! YIKES!! :eek:
 
I haven't got any mailed confirmation after placing an online order. But I have faith that all is well :redface:

Also... my wife is really pissed at whoever suggested that people place parallel orders from Frontier, just to make sure you get at least one. I on other hand thank you! :)
 
Yep... I ordered from both. I've personally called them and they said I'm guaranteed a rifle. I'm not sure how trustworthy that is... but hey, I'm expecting 2 Russian SKSs now, and if I don't get them both, I'm gonna go ape. I just got my confirmation\backorder letter from SIR as well yesterday.
Next gun for me is gonna be a 1911... Oh so expensive.
 
So while you guys have been reading this thread in the day and sleeping at night - I've been buying lots of ammo. My basement is starting to look like a Soviet small arms 'kombat supply point'. :)
