Title: [WTB] SKS
Post by: bitcoinbear on June 19, 2013, 04:57:13 PM
Anybody have an SKS lying around? I would prefer a Russian or Yugo, but Chinese could work too.

I would prefer a working model, but with a decent discount I could take something less than functional.

My brother has one, would have to ask him if he wanted to sell.  It has been switched out to the synthic stock I believe and I think he had 2 30 round banana clips.

First question is what would you be offering ball park because around here those arent going anywhere cheap.



Actually I would prefer to have the factory 10 round fixed mag, less likely to run into problems with "assault weapon bans" that way.

I saw one a couple years ago for 1.2 btc (in today's exchange rate), kinda kicking myself for not buying it then. I guess I was thinking if I could get something for near 2.5 btc would be a good deal, but I wold consider offers above that.

I've never personally seen one go for 750$ but the days of the 200$ SKS are long gone.

The best resource for pricing is www.gunbroker.com. You can see plenty there for 400-600 + shipping and transfer fees.

I can't imagine spending that much for an SKS, but that's the market.

also, when checking gunbroker add "bitcoin" to the search, and search the whole description. Increasingly people are taking bitcoin at gunbroker.

No way would I spend that much for a "doe" gun either.  I live in a state with no transfer fees and F2F selling and a bunch of drillers/pipeliners coming from Texas with a bunch of money and nothing to do buying up this stuff like crazy.



just looked at gunbroker, it looks like most of the bids are in the 250-400 range, but maybe I am just reading it wrong?
