Is this happening everywhere?

I went to the gun show today and every chinese norinco sks was at least $300.00. I'm used to paying at the most $175.00. Are we just catching up with the rest of the country or is everyone preparing for the election? Responses please include your state and average price for a good condition norinco sks in stock condition. I'm in southwestern Ohio.

Around here all you can find are Yugos. They are going for right around $250, maybe $300 if they are unissued. Decent ammo pricing, too; a 660 round can of Bulgarian 7.62x39 for $114.

Got my Yugo about a year and a half ago for $195. Guess prices are going up in NY. Good to know on the ammo.

Tulsa Ok. Norincos for 250 is common. Did pick up a Russian"paratrooper" for 260 three weeks ago. Had Norinco "para" for 250.

Saw a norinco sks at the Jackson Ms. gun show last fall that looked like it spent most of its life in a junk yard. They were asking $325.00 for it. But then every thing at that show was sky high.

I thought about selling one of my Norincos at a show this weekend. However the more I think about it, I could probably wait another 6 months, or right after the election and get $350 for it easy.
