Believe you're right. It looks more like a sporterized AK than an SKS. At a price tag of $459.00. A bit much for an SKS. Nice looking rifle anyway, except for the trigger guard. Looks junky.
They aren't the best looking rifle around, but the quality is very good. Your $459.00 price tag is a bit off, the 7.62x39 sells for under $300.00.
