I have been going thru some boxes and have come up with stuff I no longer need. So wondering what a fair trade value would be.
1st I have 11 ak 30 round mags. 8 are rib backed 3 are smooth. all have very little use.
2nd I have a none numbers matching stg58 parts kit with extra hand guards and one 20 rounder. almost no finish on the out side but a nice shiny bore.
been so long since I have been in this game I am way out of touch with pricing.
thanks gremlin

The rib back are going around $15-30ea. the flat backs should bring $30-35ea
The fal kit is about $475-550

That is high on the mags...
Aim, Tiger (was I.O.), J&G, Classic have had spine back euros on sale in the $9.99 to $12.00 range lately. Gun show pricing is higher, $15 to $20. The Chinese mags about $5 more unless they are Polytech then they are double....
FAL kits have been all over the place... with the barrel import ban, any kit brings about $150 more with the barrel.

WOW its been a while huh? You cant even buy a fal barrel for $150 these days... and mags well depends on where you sell them I guess. These are not inflated prices I paid 500 for a mint imbel kit 3years ago and then I fucked up the barrel and had to buy another that I found on fal files that was $175 from a stg58 kit.

Polish polymer $7.95
They had either steel or polymer, 4 in a pouch with cleaning kit for $39.95 a month or so back.
I did go looking and others are asking more like $15 to J&G's high of $27.95...

Yea, I remember the $69 "G" kits and AMP65 kits.... and Sportsman's Guide $3.38 surplus AK mags...
I think we bought G3 mags for $1 and new type flectarn pouches for $0.50 or a $1 from I.O. just 4 or 5 years ago...
Just ten years ago I bought E. German AK74 bakelite mags for something like $1 each...
