494132850    Albanian SKS all matching   11   $601.97    1971   Bubba  Fair   Decent enough Alby, a bit rough around the edges, but it's a nice fill for a hole in someone's collection.  I'm having a hard time telling if the stock's been humped.


495419203   ALBANIAN SKS SEMI AUTO RIFLE-MATCHING-SCARCE   27   $635.00    1977   As-Issued   Good   Of the Albys this month, this is the rarest one offered.  Very few 77's around.


495993561    Albanian SKS All Match Low Serial 1978   5   $656.00    1978   As-Issued   Very Good   Wow that's a nice looking Alby.  Flag and medal are a nice touch too.

Really VERY nice '78 Albanian and "accessories"!

Thanks running-man

No problem Danny, I hope it gives you a bit of GB pleasure to look through these.

I really liked that '78 too.  All three Albys this month were keepers that would have made a fine addition in anyone's collection!  thumb1

The 71 was refinished for sure....  Dont think the 77 was.
      
1776 will commence again if you try to take our firearms... It doesn't matter how many Lenins you get out on the street begging for them to be taken.

Yup, I was having a hard time deciding and ultimately picked the wrong pull down box.  I'll fix and update as needed.

I don't always comment but I always like looking at these listings.  Great stuff RM!

We'll see if this month is an aberration, the "n" is so low that it's hard to make conclusions about the trend in average prices.  Perhaps these Albanians are starting to get more respect in the collecting community.

You know Jon, I thought the exact same thing when I saw the avg. sale price for the three guns this month. I wasn't sure if It was simply a case of three guys really wanting Albys this month all bidding each other up or what. 

It will be interesting to see how the price appreciates over time with these ones especially.
