They all know the odds are they'll be banned and they're all trying to get as much and make as much off them as possible. And the sad thing is, it is on most firearms that this mat happen to and mags of 10 or more rounds as well. Price gouging don't ya' know.
And I have heard the Yugo SKS market is becoming fewer? As to the truth to that, I haven't a clue...

It says a great deal about the lack of trust the American people have in the Democratic Party and the empty suit they are running for the top slot, that the American people are buying firearms and ammunition in sufficient quantity and with demand far exceeding the supply of surplus battle rifles and combat-worthy pistols that the prices are being inflated and people are still willing to pay inflated prices just to get their hands on them.

Our prices have stayed the same, but they are all disappearing fast. I was at the Gun Shop yesterday, and 6 people in a row came in looking for an AR or AK !! SKS's go for around the high two's to high three's depending uopn condition.

I hate elections!

It's obvious by the past voting records of Obama, Reid, Schumer, and Pelosi that if Obama gets into the Oval Office, there will be a replay of the 90’s "Bill Clinton/Janet Reno Gun Laws" against the American public. Well, that's the price for one issue conservatives not compromising and not closing ranks for the common good. How much do you want to bet that Obama doesn't have a list of “anti-everything” judges ready to fill the federal district courts, and even a couple seats in the U.S. Supreme Court. Remember, their terms are for the rest of their lives … and yours.
They're pretty much gone here; gun shows are about the only place you may find one. If you do, it will be worn out, over priced, modified, or all three combined.
I'm just glad I got my Norinco when I did; it looks brand new, has a bayonet, wasn't messed with, and only $229.
Bought mine for $165 last year, and it was well used cosmetically. Ordered a few replacement parts and a few accessories and now she's a great shooter !!

Mine cost me $199 from Classic Arms a year ago, plus a $15 transfer fee when I picked it up from their FFL guy. Just went to their site and they are out of them today. But they are closing out .308 Saigas, and they are closing out .223 Golanis, and they just got in some M-1 Carbines. Worth taking a few minutes to look.
mine is a Norinco with a triangle stamp with a 3 in it followed by 3 chineese markings ant then the ser. # 1900xxxx can one if you tell me the approx date of mfg. its in fairly new condition so i would guess its a newer model.
also is it common for all the parts to have the last 5 digits of the ser# stamped in them . ie: stock, mag cover,trigger group, barrel.
