Assuming it’s a Russian (nice silver carrier and most tapcos were Russian) - receiver $800
Tapco stock - $150
KD (or whatever brand) rail - $100
Temu accessories - $50 for all?
About $1100 if you were to buy all new (or used online). Don’t know the condition of anything, and it seems to not have a mag in it? I’d offer 950 or 1000 for her. Good luck

Are Tapco stocks much better than ATI stocks?
Because they still sell ATI stock Sks rifles for like 750. So I'd value this even less than you
But I know nothing about stocks, so maybe Tapco is much better! That plus the rail might make with worth the extra 200

Tapcos were one of the original sks stocks, and built in a better quality than ati. No sharp edges, less rattle, and a better feel overall.
Don’t forget ATI rifles are sold in Chinese receivers, which are worth about 100 less.
You are correct the rail does add 100 of value. Won’t find any for cheaper than that with tax. I sell these all the time online, gotta keep up with the current prices

Good info! So a better stock, and a better receiver and a rail, your price makes more sense!

Theres 71,472 police officers in canada and about 2-3 million sks. Each and every officer would have to confiscate close to 28 sks
