Russian SKS value?

[Robroyb]

Not common I bought ten in 93 and have 3 or 4 I'm holding on to!

That's a bunch of SKS's. How many didn't have real wood?

im also going into this thinking were talking about tula exclusively. remember izhevsk made them in 53 and 54 as well and those will bring actual big money to the right collectors, for a good non referb you'd be looking at 1200+

Now that's more like it. I'm good with values climbing. But I guess with these things, it goes up and down.

I had no idea these were out there. And referbed that way by aresenals in Europe. Just doesn't seem like the way they do/did things overseas.

yah they are just one of the ones where the small details make all teh difference. standard referbs are dropping just like all other prices right now but i doubt they will ever drop back to what they "should" be. But the rare variations are definitely increasing in desirability so their prices are still on the rise, lots of folks became sks "collectors" so they wanted all the variations.
