I think that's not too terrible these days. You might get lucky. I wouldn't do it though. PAX

I looked at the Global Firearms site and it looks scam city to me. They say they are in Los Angeles and the areas code shows they would be in downtown LA and to the south, but they have listed non-CA compliant Yugo M59/66s, a P90, and a Russian SKS in a Tapco stock (not CA compliant) all of which do not have real info for the items. English is probably NOT their first language.
My Avatar is a pic of the real "Ghost" SKS in honor of xxxsks(joe). It is a pic of a fully decked out SKS in Capco hunter's kit. This was mine, the only other pic I had ever seen of one was Joe's.

1350 for a FN P90....  nea1   uhm just a hard no.. maybe a PS90, even thats debatable. and most prices are so 10years ago.. and their inventory isn't wiped out.  and they take PayPal... how convenient. 
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse......

Leave the gun, take the cannoli.

Original image likely came from here which is probably legit as they have zero in stock:
https://dkfirearms.com/product/surplus-chinese-type-56-sks-rifle-7-62x39/



and has been used here as a likely scam as well:
https://betafirearmsusa.com/product/surplus-chinese-type-56-sks-rifle/

If BATF wasn't so busy sending guns over the Mexican border or setting up straw sale stings to catch guys buying their nephew a Ruger 10/22 for Christmas, they might have time to deal with sites like this that are clearly attempting to sell firearms w/o a license.

Thanks for the replies - I hadn't heard of them so that explains it.

I changed the title.
