    Is $150 a fair price for SKS(china)? It's in good/very good condition and comes with an after market folding stock, a bi-pod and a 30 rd. mag (plastic) It also includes the original clip, 10 stripper clips and wood stock. I've seen over 1,000 rounds fired through it and it seem reliable. Should I pick it up?

    PS - and no I'm not in California.

    I notice that a few Russian SKS rifles have different magazines on them.
    Did they came with them or were they modified to accept a detachable magazine?

    I have been looking at some SKS's for a while now and I am thinking of getting on to add too the collection. But it seems the SKS is alot like the AK type rifles. Some people look at where it was made. I am looking for a all around good shooter so what would you all think one of the better makers are?

    I'm looking for advise on Buyer Beware when shopping for an SKS. Are they all used military weapons 40+ years old or are there new SKS's?

    As far as accuracy goes, what can i expect from an sks at 200 yds.
    Would say a Saiga in .223 be a more accurate rifle.

    Im with you Barto I ordored the same mags,A buddy of mine told me they were the best SKS mags you could find except the plain ten Rounders had a little more of his respect.But at that price I am willing to give them a chance.If I get mine befere you do I will let you know how it goes.I just ordered mine monday out of shot gun news.But SOG is in Ohio and Im in VA.So they should come by the first of next week.

    Best!!

    I tried some of those zytel mags and couldn't get any of them to work. They would feed from one side but not the other.

    I have two of the zytel mag for my sks. in my humble opinion, junk.dont feed half the time, and i had to insert a small metal piece for the magazine catch. the plastic wore down allowing mag to fall out after each shot. cheaper than dirt has metal onese that work great.
