Yup..  I heard canceled orders and some people prolly leaving them in their cart.  bat1
Canceled orders  bat1 I wonder how much Aim charges those guys for buyer's remorse/restocking  chuckles1

Those'll be gone in an hour or two to those who had "non-buyer's remorse"  :))

Nooooooooooooo! I resisted the first run, not sure if I can do it again! I talked myself into these not being something I was interested in but when they ran out I let my guard down and started to lust after them anyway.

13 left.

MUST BE STRONG, MUST NOT BUY $700 PARADE SKS!
It's sad that the motto of young Americans isn't "live free or die" or "I regret that I have but one life to give for my country" or even "ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country". Instead their motto is "pee yourself, shelter in place and cry for help". Pathetic.

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.

I love how some board newb claims.  "They found a crate they didn't know they had... 20 more up for sale". Blah, bork, buzz, spit.  Yeah, Im sure AIM just had no idea how many they had until they started selling them.  ::)

Not even 20 guns in a crate.   rofl

There is 10

Take it easy over here.    :) 

Of course AIM knew how many rifles they obtained.  Probably just had multiple cancellations/orders/reorders through the weekend and once they got to the end of the actual shipments...boom...20 more left to sell.  I'm one of the guilty parties causing the mess with some initial cold feet.  Retook the plunge today and it's a stick after moving a couple items this weekend and being a sucker for all things shiny. Should look nice next to my Dan's M59.  :))  Cheers.

Lol.  'AIM sorted through and found an extra crate' sounds alot like they miraculously discovered they had more rifles then they thought.  Highly unlikely they are not aware how many they have total, but I'm glad you updated your post and joined a real sks forum.   rofl

These things happen... Canceled orders and people leaving X amount of rifles in their cart and never checking out etc usually leads to relisting of X amount of rifles but has no bearing on their original totals.   

Just keeping it real man...  Hope you settle in, enjoy the site, and keep posting instead of lurking.   thumb1

The melancholy of not having $700 to blow is outweighed by not feeling the urge to polish something every day like I am my own butler...sure I would love to have one...but I am not so keen on the wall hanger situation vs. something I can go have fun with.  I will live vicariously through others posts....I just hope they start arriving to members soon, I am really itching to see some of these.

Loose}{Cannon

I bet they shoot just fine.    :)

I wouldn't consider a perfectly functioning weapon as a wall hanger... Just me.

Does this batch change the opinion that they didn't have chrome deposits so they opted to have non chrome lined barrels?

Is it possible they decided to go without for a reason?  Despite the quality of their builds, were the barrels considered disposable and rather than try make them last forever, just opt to refurb more often?

There seems to be even today a considerable buttload of Yugo barrels available...I cannot remember the last time I couldn't find one easily. Since they kept such meticulous records on these vs. any other country...could it just be they visited the armorer frequently, and were set for planned overhauls, which would replace the sewer pipes?  The patch puller rope that came with mine seems as if it would be as effective as using dental floss for cleaning. Mine actually has weights on both ends, so I don't even know how to use the dang thing.

Aside from demilled chop jobs, I don't recall seeing any other nation's barrels being available as widely as the Yugo barrels.

Have we learned anything new from this batch?  I assume they were Zastava factory made like that? 

I have only seen pics of these and another one on another forum.  The other forum post with pics (board name rhymes with fun gourds) claims that the stock is painted.  People are using that post to poo-poo these HG SKSs.   

I haven't picked mine up yet, so I cannot say.
