Well I got back a few hours ago empty handed. I was looking at a few SKS's which was what I really wanted but I felt for what they were the prices were way too high. All in the $380-400 range. I even saw a Norinco without a bayo for 389. Which in my mind is about 100 too much. I brought a shotgun that I was going to sell but ended up leaving it in the trunk. Guess I shoulda brought it in just to get rid of it. Anyone else go and have better luck??

Depends. For a yugo, a little high, for a Russian, about right.

 

check out Surplus city in feasterville, they usually have a bunch of yugo for 300 or so.

I had the same experience at the Oaks show. I went there looking for an inexpensive sks, and left disappointed. The show had plenty of Mosin 91/30's and ARs, but not much else. I did find a .22lr AR 15 round mag, so I got at least one thing on my list. (that and beef jerky)

The days of the $159. SKS are long over, $300 and up is the norm now, unless it's a complete beater.

yeah I guess so. If I was smart enough to bring my shotgun in and sell it I would have been more inclined to just spend the money and get one. But I left it in the trunk because I didn't see anyone else walking in with their own stuff to sell. Guess I could always try here.

Post it up in the marketplace. I'm sure if it's priced well, it will sell fairly quickly. Most of the items in the marketplace do sell quickly.

Also saw a 22lr ar that was selling for 429 and a few mosin-nagants w/scope cheapest going for $509 average around $525. Also left empty handed... Beef Jerky in the same booth with the coin guy was good though.

What a great show. I was not there 5 minutes when I saw a table outside the mens room with a guy selling reloading equipment which you never see at a gun show. This is what I bought:
