buying a used gun on the internet 6-12-11
Today we looked on the Internet for a used hunting rifle. Since craigslist does not have a section for guns we went on Alaskaslist and they have everything. We were looking for something that was a bolt action 30 caliber hunting rifle. But what we came up with is a old SKS assault rifle it had a bayonet and a grenade launcher. It is an semiautomatic 30 caliber military rifle that can hold 10 bullets in the magazine.
It is the gun that the Russians made before the AK 47 and was bought brand new recently. We got the rifle and 100 rounds for 375 dollars then the man the we bought if from gave us a trigger lock and another 200 rounds but we had to replace a of the 200 rounds that we used.The SKS was made in Poland and he got it from a dealer that brought a couple hundred new from Poland.
The guy we bought it from was a nice man that had a house so full of guns he couldn't go 2 steps without having a gun. He also kept all of them loaded and was a experienced fire arm teacher and law informent profecional. When he was showing us he had the SKS on the couch and a hid in cabinet with a pistol and some clips in it. Then there was a 30.6 hunting rifle siting loaded right by the door. His wife said that her husband likes to clean his guns...

Z-excellent post! I learned a lot about your gun--it's interesting. It rather rattles me to think that it's an assault riffle, though. Too close to was for my taste and doesn't seem to give the bear enough of a chance. I love that your learning and doing target practice. Not sure about this kiling bears stuff. Oh well.....
