lets say my sks was for sale

[newdumdum9825]

how much would you pay?



not mentioning names but i was at a gun store today and the person behind the counter offered $100, ik they gotta have a profit margin but im not lookin to be out either


btw this is not meant to be a classified so dont treat it like one


UPDATE

i decided... since i had bought it already with that cheap stock on it... so im keeping it and gonna put a monte carlo stock on it, bipod, recoil buffer, and a railed dust cover on it to make her a plinker and use her for huntin.

Is there ammo in that can? If so, how many rounds?
Honestly, I don't know about the value of SKSs anymore, last one I bought I paid $79 for it. I'm quite certain $100 is way on the low side.

 

[HeadlessRoland]

$150 bucks is what I would pay.

You could easily pull 400-550, though, depending on condition and make.

For some reason they've been spiking the past few years.

I like the natural look over the modified look on a SKS.. but everyone has their own likes & dislikes..

I agree. I would pay 150 for that sks. I would not pay 200.

You might do better putting the original wood back on it and selling the Tupperware separate.

its how i bought it

 

[pudly]

That's why you don't sell at a gun store. You should be able to get about $300+ for it in the current market.

 

[EvilKidsMeal]

With that stock? Realistically wouldn't consider it. Original stock? $200-$250 max, depending on condition

I meant more the condition of the wood, obviously if you bought it without the original stock it's a moot point, but personally I like (and I'm sure many more would agree) the original look of a gun like that.

A stock like that, will be a tougher sell IMO, and if you do sell it you probably won't get what you want, unless you happen to find someone really into that stock.

 

[newdumdum9825]

in other words im SOL

 

[churchmouse]

Not so much. $300 for that gun would be fair to you. Try posting it in the classifieds.
I sold mine for $450 but it had a mag conversion, optic, by-pod etc. Did I see a bayonet on yours. That is a plus.

 

[Ishootbullets777]

I'd do like 250-300.

numbers match with bayo

heck 300 wont hurt me, but im kinda lookin to trade for a used mossberg 500,used rem 870, or anyother used shotty i can switch barrels on

and im on the fence right now about wantin to give her up

 

[snapping turtle]

You could bling it out like this one.



I never saw a cromed out sks before this one so I snapped a pick.

 

[Tims87gn]

I prefer original myself. The value is lost when it modified like that. Its worth what someone is willing to pay for it pretty much.

 

[possum_128]

If it was in the orignal stock I would say $200(all an sks is worth imo and yes I own one) but in that tapco crap I would pay maybe $100 but thats just me, I'm cheap.
