I only ended up with a Chinese SKS. granted I've never wanted an SKS in my life, Combloc guns just never did it for me. that and I had gotten rid of all my 7.62x39 stockpiles after I sold my POS AK but:
1. it was only $239, everywhere else had them for sale for well over $400.
2. the LGS had three of them and they let me take my best pick.
3. why not? it's a new gun and everyone's still focusing on the uber scary ones

in the end I wound up owning a very worn SKS with a lot of metal wear and a shrunken, loose wobbly stock so now I'm putting the crapco stuff on it to make it look scarier than it really is
