For the SKS fans..

Saw this in the back of my dad's safe today while visiting. An unfired Russian with the price tag from early 90s still attached. I'm sure this price stung back then...

Very nice, looks like a non refurbished one.

Your Dad is a smart man. The SKS collectors go ape over them now as you may well know.

I hadn't been paying attention to their prices lately. I vaguely recall him buying two of these when I was a young boy. One of them he shot a little and this one pictured he just never got it out. They both have been collecting dust for years lol.

I do not know. I'll try to remember to look next time I'm up that way visiting. What's the most desireable?

They're nice but, a lot of people like Tula. If it has a star on the receiver that's what it is. I'm not sure if Izhevsk made any or not.

You sure about that? There were far fewer Izhevsk SKS’s made than Tula.  Iz only made them for like a year near the end of production and those were the only two manufacturers.

I stand corrected then. I really hadn't looked it up.
