You're hurting my feeling (my 1) again...... rofl
Unfreaking believable Pat. Outstanding!!!! thumb1
Not on any known list. Looks like a newly turned up one. I expect a full suite of photos when she comes in. :P

Absolutely.......too bad someone covered it in something.......http://www.gunbroker.com/item/xxx
If you need to move this to the auction section, I understand.
I edited the auction. Let's have it in your hand before we go and let the world see it (not that anyone from here would wreck your find of the century, but you never know & it's better to be safe than sorry on a deal this good.)
Bought at an estate sale though. Explains quite a bit. Seller was happy to probably double or triple his money. Nice when everyone wins.

Thanks......makes sense....did not think about that.....
Yeah. I doubt anything would happen, but you never know, money makes people do things they wouldn't normally do, and a $1000 offer thrown at the seller in an unsolicited email might make him think twice about honoring your BIN bid.
This deal puts you well into SKS legend status. Even Blicero can't deny that only an SKS legend can find a gun like this... clap1
I'm just happy I even logged on today.....I wasn't going to.
Holy Toledo!!! I mean, Holy Hanoi!!! :))
Very nice score!!!!
FYI... I reported you to the police for theft. rofl

That is one I could have gotten away with and flipped just in time for my in-laws visit... It would have looked better for my collection that they disapprove of, and haven't seen the extent of. Showing I could max out a credit card and then pay the whole thing off in a week or so (drool2 time) would show that my investments were sound, and that I would be willing to sell. (only because I would certainly have to)
Congrats! I can't wait until the photo spread. thumb1
Thanks Justin....I'll be less nervous when it actually arrives.

Truth!
Beautiful score.
So many people **** and moan about gunbroker "rawwr grumblegrumble shill bidders not a true marketplace evaluation overinflated grumblegrumble....hilary clinton..."
But the depth of my collection would be much more superficial if not for my dedication to scrounging, daily, the depths of gunbroker. And it looks like a similar approach paid off here. Way to go!
It shipped!!! Lol, probably be a bent barreled Yugo in the box.....:)

Since you have it safely in hand, these will have to do until you can get your photos up. thumb1

Here are some shots....It did not come with this sling....the sling is the one I was asking about on here last week. It is soaked in some sort of fuel/oil mix. Actually smells like gasoline. I'll add more pics as I get it apart. I am definitely removing the gas/oil coating. Whoever brought this home wrapped it in canvas of some sort...left stippling embedded in the finish.

That's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!
Original matching. That's beyond cool 8)
I can see the fabric pattern in the buttstock. I'd guess some type of synthetic fabric. Maybe he wrapped it in a couple of empty sandbags.
I like the triangle markings on the bolt. They sure look Chinese to me.
