Buy recommendations Why are Chinese sks so expensive now?

Post image

I spent $450 in December 2024 for my Chinese sks. My dad just got his pal and I was looking to get one for him and it’s $850 now? What? Why did the price almost double in just over a year?

Is there anyone that has bars in stock for $800?

Intersurplus has a bunch. Just 3006. Not any 308 sadly

Right???? I think about it all the time.  The only issue I have is getting a Bar for 800, or instead pick up a cheap 3006 bolt action for even less.... the Bar might be winning out
