A buddy of mine has a sks he's wanting to sell. I'm thinking about it but I don't know anything about them. I've tried the search feature on here but my iPhone wont cooperate. He's asking $250 for it but I don't know what to look for such as where it was made. What is better when it comes to manufacture or is it personal preference ? I haven't seen this gun for several months but as I remember its in decent condition. Is $250 too much? Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated and sorry if this is a frequent question. Thanks GD
