Gotcha. Capital City is the same shop that took a NK SKS from some poor vet's widow for next to nothing, then brought in some gun 'expert' in Nevada who tried to sell a total BS line of "This gun is the missing link transition from the Russian SKS to the NK version!" then tried to flip it for something like $4k. I wish I had saved that thread, it was fascinating how greedy these guys are.

This gun sat at $500 the entire time and I thought I might have a good shot at winning it. Unfortunately it shot up $200 in the last two hours, and it was still going up well after I tapped out, lol.

I REALLY wanted this gun. I was talking privately with the seller seeing if he'd come down a little on the price as I felt it was high. Obviously someone else thought it was fine because it sold last minute. I really should have just paid the asking price :(

Ha, I didn't even bother to scroll through the photos. Usually the bullpup kits hide any/all of the receiver markings. I took enough time to note the AK style mag release & the chopped barrel and made the entry.
Wow, two as-NIB M's go for $800.00 and you got that NICE D for $685.00, PS? I never know what to think of the GB sales. I'd have thought the D's (the ACTUAL D's) would always command a higher price, especially in the condition PS got his in.
RM, are you including guns that didn't sell in these data sheets?

That would be me not paying enough attention to the newfangled GB pages. The old pages had a nice red banner up top when an item didn't hit reserve or failed to sell. The new pages have a single red line of text buried in the middle of the page.
Bottom line is I missed this one, missed it badly. Updating the spreadsheet, we wind up with:
38 sold
$320.00 low price
$540.69 Avg. Sale Price
$899.00 Highest Sale Price
$653.81 Avg. AK Variant Price
$478.04 Avg. Paratrooper Variant Price.
Thanks for keeping me honest FC! thumb1
Yeah, myself, I liked the "old" GB page setup better. Nothing wrong with change. But not for just the sake of change. There may be some computer or server advantages to the new page setup that I'm not aware of, but it's less user friendly, to me, anyway.
Never feel unappreciated RM! I watch these GB Listings and appreciate what you do! Thanks again for all the effort put into this! thumb1 thumb1 thumb1

This one is funny. Not as imported. This guy tried to convert this rifle to a blade bayonet version. What he didn't know is the blade groove needs to be longer. rofl. Should have used a M59/66 stock.

Looks more to me like he just changed the stock, no? It's an early gun, so blade is probably right, and the handguard wood is a different color so I think he just put a standard stock on it and didn't extend the groove. Probably was a plastic stock gun and maybe he tried putting wood back on to sell it?
May be impossible to tell without seeing the notch in the stock ferrule?
Let me rephrase my earlier post. Change the phrase "convert this rifle" to the phrase "change the stock"
and
You are right Loose I can't see the ferrule.

I put the question mark because I thought maybe you knew or saw something I didnt.
