That would still be quite reasonable for this gun IMO.

That would be how much?

I saw the TFB video on the 5.56 version, is there a chance of production on that model too? or just the 7.62x39?

I wonder what kind of accuracy the Chinese were getting out of them?

It appears my plans for my tax return are changing to a type 81.

It should be pretty close to the price CanAm stated, they posted that beginning of January '16' the Canadian dollar was at .71 USD, today it closed around .72 USD... It's a little different CAD to Chinese Yuan but still should be around that price

So not too far from $800 then? Since you posted that last month. That price would be very reasonable. I will be buying one for sure.
Thanks

I wonder if $800-ish is for the NR version or the regular restricted length guns?

Good question.

Anything over $1200 mark for an SKS in a factory made AK jumpsuit is way too much for this guy.
I hope whoever imports these can pass on the savings somewhat to us lowly consumers. I understand the small market in this country and I also understand the costs inherent in shipping, importation fees, tax etc etc
I like to think that if the price on these rifles can be kept down to somewhere just under the $1K mark or even better yet closer to the original Cz858 mark of $800 way back when they came in they would sell every single one brought in and more.
Anything more than $1K and I won't even bother saving up 10 cents towards one. Just my opinion on it.

Please stop spreading this SKS non sense, it's not a SKS, it's nothing like a SKS, the type 81's bolt is different, the piston is different, the trigger is different, mag is different, stock is different, Safety is different, it has incorporated VZ and AK designs...
Does anyone even bother to research on a subject these days? don't just believe the next guy, me included, look it up if you are interested in the rifle, walk away if you don't, please don't spread the wrong info.
however I do agree with Travis this gun should not be more than 1k.

Okay sorry you're right, it's an SKS with a rotating bolt, pistol grip and AK47 return spring lolol
Oh and a probably $1K price tag.
Don't get all pissy because you're a hair closer to what you think is an AK47 but still just a factory upgraded SKS in an AK47 furniture overcoat Sir......
Just my opinion. I'm not seeing anything in the details so far that makes it much more than that. Especially when you put the rifle through the blender that is our gun laws; mag pinned to 5 and the barrel being longer etc and then 5 times the price.
I'm just saying. I'll shut up now and let you guys get back to "almost there" AK47 fantasy land
