Your thoughts on Nazi surplus firearms with the swastika & people who own them?

Many years ago I did a lot I mean a lot of fire arm buying trading and swapping this went on for better than 15 years I would say about 300 or so guns past through my hands and I had 2 98's wit the whole 9 yards on them (I got them from 2 separate deals about 5 years apart) I could care less what they had on them I kept one for about a year and shot several hundred 8 X 57 rounds through it and sold it top a guy at a range I was at for a good profit and the other went in on a trade I would not go out of my way to get one but would not pass on one for that reason

Pretty much how I feel about the issue as well, i'm not going to go out of my way to have firearms or knives with a swastika on it, but i'm not exactly going to start having convulsions and panicking because I see a swastika on a weapon. I'm definitely not going to buy replica garbage either, I seen a lot of neo nazi skinhead punks that think it's cool to buy a cheap 5 dollar knife because it has a swastika on it. Heck, think of the pro's, if I buy authentic weapons with a swastika on it, less for the Nazis to buy. Rather I own it than some neo nazi punk ;)

If you find genuine nazi-era collectables at a steal price, buy them. If you can get two 98s for $180 ea and two nazi bayonets for $45 ea and then SELL them to nazi-worshipping idiots and double your money.......more's the better! Take your $450 profit and buy a Serb SKS and 1,000 rounds of ammo that'll cost you NOTHING.

Serbian SKS? Is that the same as the Yugoslavian SKS? I thought they weren't chromelined?

They are the same. They're not chrome lined, but they gobble up new steel case Russian ammo that's not corrosive.
Secondly, the crome lined examples havn't been imported for a while and most are pinned barrel models.
Yugo 59/66s are threaded barrel models and the best built. They are available NOW unissued.
As for barrel life...............a new Yugo SKS has a 10,000+ round life. A chrome lined SKS will have 20,000 rounds barrel life MINUS the 10,000 rounds the last dude has alread put through it. So it's the same thing, really.
Remember to that the Yugo 59/66s have C&R status with the BATF, Chinese Norincos don't.
