Looking in my crystal ball, I see the prices of SKS/AK going up.
I'm not basing this on idiotic zombie, or gun grabbing fears, but a legit demand.
Here's my reasoning. We all know, (even if some wont admit) that they are not accurate, compared to ARs, M1As, etc. You never see them in HP or other serious matches.
Looking in my Crystal Ball, I see a change. We all know of CMP GSM Vintage Rifle Programs, but did you know the CMP has a Modern Military Program, (see CMP 2011 rule book). When it catches on, you're gonna find rifle matches for the modern military rifles such as the SKS & AKs. They will be competing against similar rifles and not Garands, Springfield's or National Match ARs & M1As.
When this catches on, look to see the demand, and prices, skyrocket.
Just look at what happened in the new Vintage Sniper Rifles programs. Prices on the scopes & other equipment for these rifles have gone through the roof in the last couple years.
I see the same thing happening to the SKS/AK in the future. If you want one I'd suggest not waiting.
