| Yugo SKS
Here's my stock Yugo. From the serial number, it was made in 1972.

I noticed that the Yugo SkS are more common than ones like my Chinese Norinco. Anyone know a good current value estimate? Thanks

Goodaim,
Not sure what yours is worth but I went to the Jackson gun show here in Ms. and found one that looked like it had been pulled out of a garbage dump. They were asking $325.00 and wouldn't come down a dollar. The thing looked like pure trash. Compared to it yours should be worth a fortune.

Audie were they the ones from Yugo or the ones from China? Cause that sounds about right for the Yugo SKS. If it had the Grenade Launcher it was a Yugo. I did see a few around here for 250 but they weren't very nice. I kept the original stock and handguard and Receiver Cover that goes on mine just for the off chance a real collector is interested. I am still trying to nail down the year it was made.
Found a very cool Reference. It's values of C&R Firearms. C&R Buds -- Military Firearm Prices

here is my yugo. I can't say whether it was unisssued or not but the stock did not have a single nick and the metal all looked new, it was soaked in cosmo and tok about 3 hours to get clean.I think I payed about $189 2 years ago.

I payed 125 for it. I added the Stock and Scope and Mount to it for a additional 95 dollars. I hadn't really thought too much about it until I started looking around and what some people have paid for theirs. I got a super deal on it. I have not had any real trouble out of it. The stock was a big prob when I bought it. It was beat up looking and didn't fit very well. That seems to be common though in the older SKS's. Mine is a Norinco Made in China. I am still trying to put a date on the rifle. Anyone know where I can find out what the numbers on it mean and figure a date of manufacture? Looks pretty good there Tex.

Mike I checked out that site on the SKS it was of some help but not alot on the year of manufacture. I guess in the end it doesn't really matter. Cause I got a really cool looking SKS for under 250 bucks LOL.
