Still reasonable as far as I'm concerned. But they better be ALL numbers matching for that price...And unless you have a C&R, they're slightly more to the north, where I'm at in Illinois. Some even asking $250...
Some may think it's too much, but for some reason, I don't. Besides, it only went up $40 bucks. Reason they've gone up, demand is still high and supply is getting low.

The same thing will happen to the Nagants when the supply starts to get low.

well for 200. i think it really depends what country. if you can find someone in the middle east who wont kill you for being american, they could probably get you a few AK's. completely full auto ones too. haha

However, there is the slight problem of getting it back into the country without getting caught...

Hee Hee!!!!
Now you know I can't meet you tomorrow.. I'm gonna be busy picking up the one you shoulda bought..

Hopefully, I'll have photos of it to post tomorrow.. I'm really glad you took the non-lami.. They're both beautiful rifles and we both got the one we wanted. (but I shoulda bought both when I picked up my Colt Light Rifle)

By the way, that's a nice looking Rifle!!!

YADDA, YADDA, YADDA! There was something uniquely attractive about the deep rich color of this one. I looked at both and this one called my name the most.

Post Pics when you get it!!
