What should I ask for my SKS?

WannaBeGunsmith · 10-06-2009, 04:57 PM

I'm considering selling my Yugo SKS. I've put 250 rounds through it and now am looking for something different. I wanted to sell everything together so here is what I have:

Yugo SKS w/ bayonet and rifle grenade launcher and sling
750 rds Wolf Military Classic
7 Tapco 20 round detachable mags
Factory 5rd mag
U.A.G 2-6x32 scope, receiver scope mount w/rings
Original parts included

Any ideas?

I can post pics if need be.

Please post a photo...it's hard to judge condition without visual reference.

I paid $399 for my Yugo, but it is in near mint condition!

gandog56 · 10-06-2009, 07:57 PM

Ummm, why would you want to sell it?

WannaBeGunsmith · 10-06-2009, 08:40 PM

I get bored. I bought it to shoot a javelina almost a year ago and have not been able to make to to the ranch since

Plus I have another semester of school coming up and it is not going to pay for itself...

The guns are going for around $250, and the rest is what it is..

srt 10 jimbo · 10-06-2009, 09:28 PM

Bout $500 with the ammo and everything. I traded mine for a Taurus PT1911

WannaBeGunsmith · 10-07-2009, 12:19 AM

Shoot. A semester costs me about $650. Guess I have to dip into my firearms fund. Ooooor, not go back to school wooohooo! lol

JebDude · 10-07-2009, 12:42 AM

You should ask $100 for it, IF you sell it to me. HEHEHEHee. JB

WannaBeGunsmith · 10-07-2009, 12:47 AM

How about 100..... 10 dollar bills?

roggom · 10-07-2009, 11:32 AM

How about saving the SKS and selling off the ammo and accessories. There are lots of people picking up the Yugo's as the prices are coming down again. The good thing is extended mags, scope mounts and whatnot can be sold locally because the buyer saves shipping cost. $250-300 can burn a hole in your pocket real fast and all you end up with is a night of clubbing and empty food wrappers (well I did back in the day).

I think that's what I'm going to do. I don't know what I was thinking when I ordered all those mags. I think I'm going to hold on to it. Maybe put an ATI Monte Carlo stock on it like I have on my Mosin.

I have the Monte Carlo stock on my Norinco, and I love it.

Cross Hair · 10-08-2009, 03:47 PM

I will give you $200 for the whole thing, with an option to buy back after school is over. nyuck nyuck nyuck

That looks goooood. Will that stock still accept the 20 rd Tapco detachable mags?

roggom · 10-09-2009, 08:55 PM

Lobo that is very nice, looks like it would make a great hunting rifle. Softpoints are around $6 a box out this way, $9 at Gander.
