Picked this up from Samco. I understand the prices have gotten crazy compared to what they were just a few years ago. But even at $400, this is a nice specimen. Put about 60 rounds downrange this afternoon, and I had to force myself to put the ammo away...too fun!

They definitely are a blast. Nice, clean looking specimen. And don't panic over ammo, it's still one of the most affordable calibers out there.

I held this SKS and it looked like it just rolled off the line at a modern factory. It is flawless.
