I was in Collectors (Stoneham) and Four Seasons (Woburn) this week and pretty sure that I saw one. I think it was at Collectors but not 100% positive. A call there would probably answer the question. Collectors is open today and tomorrow. Four Seasons will be a zoo and I doubt you'd get any info by phone today.
You can check both websites as they have inventory listed that is fairly up to date.
Good luck.

Whoops, I read the post too quick. i've been jumpy on SKS threads ![[hmmm]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/009.gif "Hmm [hmmm]")
, sorry Bmass. I haven't seen any Russian SKS', did you check the classifieds?

I have one. In a non matching stock but its a Russian stock. It had the trigger worked on by the well known SKS trigger guru and it did make a difference. It has a peep rear sight I installed but I have the original which is easy to re install. One pin and its installed.
I do have it for sale on a auction site now and it wont end until the end of Aug. It has a "buy now" price so it could go at anytime.
I cant post how much I want since this is not the classified section of NES but I will say its over $300.
If interested PM me.
Rifle sold, winning bid, well lets say it was WAY more than I would have paid

Huh????????? Tell me where to find a russian under $300 nowadays
Parts rifle most likely, but I have bought rifles like my SVT for FAR less than the going price. Right place, right time.

Interesting, if you don't mind, PM what it sold for. My Russian SKS hasn't left the safe in over 2 years. I debated selling it a while back but couldn't do it, I have never sold a gun, I just buy them.
Its good your in a posistikn to never need to sell a gun. I unloaded my small collection to help with down payment on my house. I have had to sell to acquire. Deal with the wife is I need to generate other income to feed my hobby. So far been pretty good at it.

Let me also say, that I haven't bought a gun in about 2 years as well. lol
Just haven't gone shooting in a while. Well, the past few weeks I have tried my hand at trap shooting. Looks a lot easier than it is.

don't do it man, just search for the thread of regrets (something like, had to sell now would buy at any price)
I'm on to a few leads...thanks for the responses guys. Man did the price on the Russian SKS's (or all the countries and makes) go through the roof while I wasn't watching! In Hickok45 video he states he bought one 10-12 yrs ago for $89. ouch...that hurts.
Well, if it makes you feel better . . . I paid a little under $250 OOD at FS back ~11 years ago for my Russian SKS.

I remember my first Yugo SKS for $199 2 years ago. now they are $379 plus shipping, with some distributors....

Oh I hear ya. But neither the Yugo, Chinese or Russian have made it out in some time.
I don't need the cash right now, it would help, but I don't need it yet. That is why I am on the fence, plus, the price of them seems to keep going up. Think I paid $350 for the Russian one when I got it.. Bet there is a wayyy back thread here when I got it, lol.
Yup, I saw that too.

There is a guy on another board that keeps track of russian GB sales monthly . they are averaging about $450 on a regular basis. some are higher some are lower based on collectability (year, make) and condition of course.
I saw a pristine all original just sell for $1100 with a buy it now. it happens.

A good price for a non refurb 51 - 54 Tula is around $450 these days but expect to see them for a few $ more. Refurb rifles will get between $325 - $425.
Other rifles such as Izhevsk manufacture and odd dates like Tula 1949 and 1955/56 rifles will get more because of rarity.

for a mis-matched refurb SKS he's asking about $175-150 too much.
If that thing sells for what he's asking, I have a closet full of AKs that I'll be selling for $1,000 each in the NES classifieds.
