I have a friend with a gun dealer who is claiming to be able to get me a Romanian made SKS, good to very good condition, with bayonet and grenade launcher for $118, plus about $10 shipping. Is this an OK weapon to purchase, or should I pass it by? Thanks in advance for your help.

  If it has a grenade launcher, its probably a Yugoslavian SKS. Check the bore and the gas tube. Those are two places where wear/corrosion on that rifle may or may not be excessive. If its in good shape then buy it, its a good price.

  Yea, that is a real good price if its not worn out. There going for about $180-$200 "unissued" at the shows these days.
