I need to know the value on my Russian made sks plz?
Condition is good (8 out of 10 range) all numbers match, that is the numbers on the bolt, barrel and stock. Are there more numbers?

    Take the money and run! A sporterized SKS has virtually no collectors value. If yours has been drilled and tapped for a scope moun,t and doesn't have the original mag, it's just a shooter. Times are really rough now money wise, $350 would be a good deal IMHO.

    I agree with rufe-snow take the buyers offer the detachable mags are useless anyway and so are the cheap scopes and mounts. They add no value to any gun.

    Since you have "extras" with it and the original stock ect., good deal for both.imo..nambu

    Yes- but he said he had the original wooden stock and bayonet to return it to original condition- right? But if it was tapped for a scope- that could be a drawback.

    Thanks guys. I do have the original mag installed currently, and I have the original wood and bayonet. It could be put back to original except the tapped holes for the scope mount. I do see guys asking for more than that regularly here, but I'm not sure they get are getting it. That said, the general opinion seems to be its a fair deal?

    You can find the actual selling price of common guns by clicking on the Smart Search button at the top of the GB home page. Enter the key words, select COMPLETED AUCTIONS, select HIGHEST NUMBER OF BIDS FIRST. Disregard all auctions where the number of bids is 0. Look at the auctions & find photos of guns that look like yours.

    In the case of Russian SKS's, there are many variations. The highest prices are for original finish guns that are like new, then arsenal rebuilds that are in excellent condition. Shooters (like yours) will be near the bottom.

    EDIT: Good point about the holes. If what you have is a top cover that's been drilled, it's easily replaced by you & won't affect the value. But, if the receiver has been d&t'd......you take a big hit.

    IF its actually been "drilled for scope",,,take the deal and don't look back..That is the biggest turn off for me on that kind of rifle..imo..nambu
