Do surplus Garands surface once in a while in Canada icon

, and what do they go for
I have been surfing the web for a while and havent found anything .
I even went to a nice gun action in town yesterday , but no luck .
People seemed to be paying over the odds for long guns too so sadly i diddnt pick anything up. the stupidist thing was SKS`s were going for $300 when there was a store a block away that was selling them for $180 incl taxes.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Garands are available all over the country. You just have to be in the right place at the right time.

Unfortunately for the prospective Garand icon

buyer, they seem to be going through a real increase in popularity. Translation: prices are way up. Rifles that sold for $200 or less a few years ago are now selling in the $600 price range. The Exchange on CGN normally has a couple Garands for sale every week.

That was the Bud Haynes auction you're refering too? Were the SKSs normal Norincos or were they Yugo icon

?

If they were Norinco commercial SKSs, that's obviously overpriced. The early production Chinese military SKSs had a blade bayonet.

CGN is www.canadiangunnutz.com. I must say, I'm surprised you found this site before CGN.

I'm not surprised. We're No.1 on google when you search "milsurps"

**Stevo** · 10-23-2006 03:50 PM

Yeah, but who uses the plural when searching?

(I knew you were going to post that when you got an opening!

)
