I 'almost' bought one from a guy a while back and should have. I'll get one most likely before too long.

Looks like you keep it in good shape too. Nice.

Dont piss this guy off when hes on his scooter.

You could get an ar10. For "vintage" i would say am m1 garand but theyre way over priced. Even the non-wwII ones. I see them as a collectors or just bougt to just have rifle.

The sks is a blast. There are many models (origins) of it. Ive only shot my yugo and its great. You uave to actually put some work into sighting in the irons wih an actual. Theyre not quick adjust knobbed like new rifles. So i you hear some one say they suck, well either they were lazy and didnt sight it, their barrel was worn out, or one from a bad country.

I saw a dragonov today at where im having my rifle sent. It was tits. Even had the scope. Ill get some pics of it when i go pic my rifle up.

VINTAGE???????

Don't forget they had to lower the requirements so get the 5.56 NATO round to pass. ( from passing thru both sides of a metal helmet to only having to go thru one side, for one example )

If the shit hits the fan, a M1 garand would be one of my first choices. Regular ball ammo could get you plenty of choices of current rifles

I'd love to get a Garand. The repro's that Springfield Armory was making for a while went for.. I forget. $1200-1400, I think? About what their base M1A's are going for now.

As for SKS's, I had a Norinco back in the 90's when they were going for <$100/ea. I ended up trading it for a MAK90 (Norinco AK sporter) and now I'm wishing I hadn't. All SKS's have gone up in value and the Chinese models seem to be more sought after than the Yugos (which seem to be the most common on the importer/reseller market right now).
The MAK90 is ok. I've done it up with some aftermarket furniture to drop the pretty yet not-so-functional thumbhole sporter stock. Unfortunately it will never have the accuracy potential a well massaged Simonov does.

Yup. The yugo has doubled in price since i got mine back in '05.

I got both my Garands from the CMP / DCM. The Springfield was $300 and the IH was $500. Both came with paperwork so they have appreciated quite a bit.

Want a M1 Garand ( or a M1 carbine ) from the CMP?
http://www.thecmp.org/

Rifle Sales
M1 Garand
M1 Carbine
M1903 M1903A3
M1917 Enfield
.22 Target, Surplus
.22 Target, Commercial
CMP Air Rifles
Miscellaneous Rifles

If you want one, get the best grade you can afford. They aren't making these anymore and they are a great shooting rifle.
