    Norinco pre-ban AK47 value

    Hi all. I need an opinion. I have a 1986 (pre-ban) Norinco AK47 (fixed stock). I am the original owner. I have fired no more than 500 rounds through it. It is flawless, including the finish of the wood. I have the origianl Manual, stock cleaning kit, bayonet adn so forth. Considering it is pre-ban status and flawless what do you think a fair price is? I have a potential buyer and would be interested in hearing your range of opinions. ciao.

    This is strictly my personal opinion., so take that for what it's worth.

    If it was mine, I wouldn't even consider less than $800, and I think I'd ask for a bit more.

    One thing's certain. It isn't going to go down in value. Again, one man's opinion.

    Check gun broker actual bids and sales (not the high priced ask with zero bids).

    I'm thinking more like a grand these days.
    We found out what "dealing" with progressive lefties is all about. Our side gives up something, they give up nothing and the progressives come back in a month or a year and want us to give up more... rinse and repeat...

    Welcome to the group, pinchers59 !!!

    Minimum price these days for a 56S or the earlier AK/47S or AKM/47S or one of the many ways Norinco stamped it would be $1000 in very good condition. Not out of the ordinary to see upwards of $1200 in excellent condition with the accessories, more with box, and a bit more in new condition in box with all accessories.

    Welcome aboard, Pinchers59! You might consider hanging on to it. It certainly won't go down in value!
