Meh they have the bastard rivet through the mag body i prefer internally pinned

Internally pinned are PITA UNLESS it's the early IZH style pin welded to the follower arm. The pin that is rivited to the follower pivot point is unreliable. In addition, a small hole at the bottom of the mag body is less damage than the removal of the original pin that attaches the follower to the follower arm.
In the end, I would prefer no pin jobs, but since we're forced to limit capacity to 5 rounds, I want my SKS to work EVERY time.

They are being advertised based on their collectability strong points and are priced to reflect that. So what does the function of the pinning method matter?
Lots of SKS options are available from many dealers. For your collection, buy these. For the gravel pit, hit up any number of retailers for $65 less.
Or by all means, make one of these your main shooter....

Our friend Weimajack also just put up new, unfired, still in cosmo Chinese SKS' for $285 + taxes & shipping. Which are also priced to reflect their current availability status.
Although still considerably more than I recently paid for my Military Type 56 this past week.

Yes, $245 for mint non-refurbs is reasonable but I see regular SKS' on sale for much less. Look nice but not mint:

I see they're selling fast. Very good deal. I'm tempted to pick-up the '55, even though I don't need it.

That was fast. Not often you see a deal on a non-refurbished like that. Whoever got that transitional late '55 should be thrilled. Very nice!

Wholesale Sports from time to time has a very nice selection of SKS. I got a nice mint non refurbished 1954 Tula from them for $180 not last summer but the summer before that.
