    AtlanticFirearms SKS

    Been reading other threads about the SKS that AtlanticFirearms has now and was wondering if anyone got one of theirs......including pics. Mayb I'm thinking they come from the same pool of SKS that Classic has. I'd like to see what kind of SKS Atlantic is offering....including the ones that were cleaned up.

    Anyone buy theirs yet?

    well judging on what they got on the Website, it appears they are Chinese and not the Sino-Soviets that Classics has. Not a 100% sure but for $299, you can't beat that.

      The description sounds like they are in a rough condition but with good bores and $299 is a great price.

            The rifles definitely look better once all the Cosmoline is cleaned off of them and polished up a bit . As described they are Military Surplus and will show character .

                C'mon! Cosmoline is half the fun!
                My first Norinco SKS was so caked with cosmo, I could only open the action half way. Took awhile to clean out with kerosene. Good times!

                        5 gal. plastic bucket and small paintbrush ordered too?
                        I think handling is very important too prevent any fresh dings or cracked wood. Hope this is a good batch so I can buy another.
                        Buying the mineral spirits from Amazon will save you the drive to Corona HomeDepot. They got lots of the stuff

                          Anyone get one of these yet? Wondering if they are different than the Classic ones.

                            So far we're all waiting. Now I'm wondering if they'll have the same import markings as Classics. I just read their add and there's no mention of hand select or the matching s/n's. Who know?
                            Atlantic is viewing this forum so maybe they'll answer while we're waiting for some pics.

                              We do not know if the Classic guns are from the same batch as ours as listed in our item description we note markings may vary . We are not opening up each box and sorting guns based on markings or numbers.
