Buy recommendations Recommendations on SKS

Post image

Hi, hope youre all doing great.

My last post here was asking on advice on whether to buy my buddy's sks or not. Apparently the sale didnt go through and he got an outrageous offer for it and sold it off.

Ever since that, i have been looking to get my hands on an sks.

Dont care if it gets banned anymore. A classic canadian staple and ill be buying it regardless only if i can get my hands on one.

Have been out of luck in New brunswick trying to get one for sub 1200$ . Was looking at firearms outlet and saw multiple still in stock.

Need recommendations/ reviews of the ones you guys and gals already own and the ones to STAY AWAY FROM BUYING.

Even if do get one, itll be very hard to check it in person as ill be trying to get her shipped all around canada. So please guide me on where to buy(already know gunpost and townpost) and which model to buy.

Thanks a ton in advance.

P.S: was willing to get the ATI stock one in the picture as a last resort.

Keyword here is 2022. CC breaches happen daily at many retailers, restaurants, gas stations and convenience stores etc

If one does a distasteful act and refuse to take accountability for it, it’s as they did it today.

Does every retailer publicly annouce when a credit card number has been misused after a purchase at their store. Short answer is no. Cards are used fraudulently every single day and I've never read about it. There are card swimmers at gast station pumps, convenience store ATMS and a host of other places. I've never read about Shell or Petro Can addressing it or Circle K or 7-11

If a card skimmer was found at those places they would remove it. Not keep it on and say, hey, give us more money!
