Mosin dude. There's a plethora of SKS's around. Mosin snipers disappear like crazy ESPECIALLY that GOD DAMN bent bolt. Just ask Ross on that one.

By the way, the torrent of 91/30 imports to the US is drying up, and I don't just mean sniper rifles.
The end of your cheap milsurp is rapidly approaching, dudes.
I blame the liberals and conservativesQuote:

I'm probably going to my local gun store tomorrow and ordering. Fuck yeah. Cheaper then classic.
Round receiver.

Since you're on the topic, I almost picked up a Mosin-Nagant 91/30 for $150, but then I realized I'm under 18 and don't have any form of a firearms license. :saddowns:
It still had some of the cosmoline , but that's just a short, thorough clean up. The whole purchase would have included a bayonet, cleaning kit, and ammo pouch. Sounds dirt cheap now that I think about it. The one I looked at might've been shit anyways.
You can find equitable, better, or less equitable deals for cheaper depending on your area.
I assume your comment about a firearms license means you live in Canada, so I can't really judge on that. But I have seen some very nice Mosins for $100 with a similar kit.
Oh, I was thinking of a concealed firearms license, duh. :facepalm:
In regards to price, I saw quite a few around $400, and Spartan094's post with a 91/30 for about $600. I assumed better quality rifles extended further in price range. I might just investigate it again to see how nice it is. I won't be capable of purchasing one right away, being a minor still, but I'd certainly love to have a quality Mosin to start out my collection.
The reason those Mosins were going for about $600 is because they are PU sniper models. They were manufactured during the Great Patriotic War to be used as sniper rifles, and come with scopes and mounts and bent bolts and everything. Most infantry model Mosins are far cheaper because they made millions of them. They are fine rifles for the money, and will do anything that buying a 50's era M721 .30-06 will do or any other rifle in the price range, but with cheaper ammo.
I didn't trust the guy who I was selling my ak too, kinda of a shady fellow. I got another deal going on in which I could get a Romanian M44 in a trade + around $625ish in cash. Time will tell..then I'll order a PU 91/30 and have 7 Mosin Nagants total. IF everything goes to plan.
Also I got my mosin nagants from family and friends when I was a minor.
Also when we are dealing with mosin nagant prices those can vary, esp by country and model. Just save up your money that's for sure.
