Depends on country of origin, and which part of the country you're in. I've seen laminate stock Soviet SKS rifles go for well over $400. I've seen the same for unissued condition Yugoslav M59/66 rifles. You might be able to find a basic Chinese Type 56 carbine for $200 - $250 or an issued condition M59/66 for about the same. However, some Chinese models command a premium for their rarity - particularly the paratrooper carbines, and detachable magazine SKS-M and SKS-D rifles, which can cost into the $500 range. The Albanian SKS is pretty rare, and might for anywhere from $300 - $450. The most expensive ones will be the ultra rare Vietnamese, East German, and North Korean variants, which typically command prices upwards of $1000 whenever someone who has one decides to sell it.
they are about $100
no
100-350
Priceless, since a true SKS assault rifle would be a prototype only most likely. The SKS fires semi-automatically and does not have provision for full auto fire. If you have a normal run of the mill Chinese SKS it is worth 100-400 or so depenidng on condition, box, accessories, etc..
50-500 USD depending on specifics
$100 to over $1000, depending on the specifics.
Around $300- depending on condition and originality
You DO know these were made by several nations? And that serial numbers are not unique to only one gun in the world? Average price for an SKS is good shape is $250-$300
SKS Microfinance was created in 1998.
The D and M models accept AK47 magazines whereas the standard sks has an integral magazine.
The only SKS carbines currently which require registration are the Chinese-made SKS-M and SKS-D models. Those could not be imported into the state after 1989, and had to be registered by 2000.
All of the fixed ten round mags are cross compatible, but cannot be used in the SKS-M or SKS-D, both of which use a detachable AK magazine.
