Getting closer ( a few months) to buying something else. I prefer new but have been wanting an SKS or an AK.
At the moment I don't need or want both. Actually I don't NEED either so says the wife.
I've been fondling the New C39 AKs at Cabelas and also had a feel of the Yugo SKS w/grenade launchers they have there as well occasionally at well over $300 in very good condition. I dilike the grenade launcher thing.
I would prefer the Chinese chrome lined barrel sks in like new condition but they are pricey and puts me near to an AK. No interest in the 30 round mag vs 10 with the SKS and the stripper clips.
Accuracy, dependability maintenance, re-sale parts etc.
Are they not very similar or is the SKS more accurate?
Anybody have experience with both and kept one over the other?
Anybody see a good selection of SKSs for sale to look at in a GS lately?
