Back in '92 or '93 I bought an SKS and an AK47. The shop where I bought them had hundreds of them. A buddy told me I got ripped off for giving $125 for the SKS and $150 for the AK. The next year the ban took effect, I didn't even hear a word about it until it was too late (there was no internet) and didn't have an opportunity to stock up. I saw the prices go up overnight into the $900-$1000 range. Was that gouging? Market price is just what a seller is willing to let it go for and a buyer is willing to pay. It is understandable to be upset because there isn't the accessibility to his sport that we normally enjoy, but you can't blame the seller for the market price.</p></blockquote><p></p>
