My New Russian Acquisition

[enfield303t]

The SKS is a great gun for the money. Here in Canada they originally sold for just under 200.00 CDN but now up to 269.00 in my local gun store. They are still prevalent but for sure going to get harder to find as I think the supply from the commies is running dry.

We have one that has thousands of rounds down the barrel, still accurate for what it was designed to do and very reliable.

Congrats on your acquisition.

Back in the early 90's a friend paid well over $500 for a Russian SKS.

At the same time, brand new Chinese SKS was $89, $109 with a 1440rd case of "silver box" non corrosive ammo.
