Not a copy of the M1, it’s a poorly executed 2/3 scale model of the FN49 (SAFN). I’ve owned and used both, know what I’m on about. Given a magazine and cleaned up trigger, and a couple or three inches off the barrel length I’d prefer it to the AK...

The SKS is, indeed, the Russian M1-Garand. Same bolt feel and quality, although the rest of the weapon is somewhat cheaper-made. Also, I’ve yet to get an SKS Thumb. :)

I paid more. But oh well. Firearms don’t seem to depreciate.

No, they don’t. I guess it might be about $350 now a days. I just happened to run across it when Bill Clinton was about to ban “assault weapons” and couldn’t pass it up. It lives in my wifes pickup these days.

Matching number good condition Russians, esp ones < 1955 or so, are about 5-600
If you go Yugo or Chinese then you go down to 350.

Just bought a chinese model. Arsenal /636\ , 1975 manufacture. Absolutely pristine, all numbers matching. At $300 a hell of a deal.
