J&G SKS

Good condition - $119.95
hand select - +$10.00
Excellent to like new - $159.00

Have any of you guys purchased any of these? Is the hand select worth the extra 10? Is the Ex/Ln worth the extra $40.? That's 33%!

I've been told that the barrels are all excellent. The main difference is in the finish and wood.

Help appreciated guys,
It's too late for me, save yourself.

    A guy at the range had one of the J & G Yugo SKS's. It was the the top of the line, model. The external condition was definitely excellent. For the $40 bucks extra, it appears to me, to be well worth it. As the barrels on the Yugo's aren't chromed, hopefully the bores are in excellent condition also.

    In the 25 years plus that I've been doing business with J&G I've never had a complaint!..To my knowledge they've never misrepresented anything they Sell...........

    Hi,

    My advice with military surplus arms would be to buy the best grade that is offered.

    It may not shoot any better, but the quality and finish will be superior to the "good condition". IMHO the "good condition" strictly refers to mechanical condition and the finishes and some of the parts can be quite worn on these firearms.

    Regards,

    Heavyiron
