Skydiving with My Boy- New Ptrooper

I saw an ad in a local web classified and noticed the seller lived close to my son. "Chinese SKS - $350"

I asked for pics and when I saw them, I said, "My boy will be right over!"

Factory /26| '67 Paratrooper - unfired, still in cosmo and plastic wrap, all matching except no stamping on stock. 95% plus gun!

The lucky kid...

Nice looking shooter.

Good score!

Sweet! I saw one at a show a couple of weeks back for $350.00 in the box, but looked as though it had been de-cosmolined. If I hadn't already bought 3 SKS's the two weeks prior I would have picked it up, hated to pass it up but I had no doe-ray-me!:sad_small

If you have nothing good to say.........

Hopefully we can get it out to the range next week to see how that dog hunts! Still 3 to 4 feet of snow on the ground here in Western Maine....

Snowshoes and Swedish milsurp shooting mittens!

Looks like a good deal.

Still, we must part with the Greenbacks if we want one bad enough. I have paid top dollar for some and will again if the right model comes up!

That being said, I found another incredible deal last friday in Uncle Henrys... more to come when I get it in my hands.

nice! makes me wish i kept the wood stock on my SKS instead of the black plastic crap...
