The prices are all over from $35 bucks and up. They are not particularly hard to replicate and can be found with a slightly different  profile, even from the same inporter. It is in that respect that they only command a slight premium , but SKS bayos, and all parts, have gotten $spendy. PAX

Oh, you he meant a complete rifle, sorry.
In that case how much you asking? I picked up one in January for $320 (minus bayo, cleaning kit & rod) from a pawnshop in NC. They usually have a hunnerd dollar premium over a standard Chinese SKS. PAX

The paratrooper length spike bayonet (cut down regular spike bayonet) used to be $25-30 all day long, when regular length spike bayonets could be found everywhere for $15-20. $35 seems reasonable nowadays but they could go beyond that.

An actual 42cm barrel SKS "paratrooper" will start at $400 for a beat up one and go up from there.

(edit: corrected the length)

Locally $35, Gunbroker $45 + $10 for shipping, Ebay $49.99 + $15 shipping

OR, you can start it at a penny and watch it go for $80 rofl rofl
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.
