Are my eyes working properly? -Nagant thread

Correct me if I'm wrong but are they really asking that for a sporterized mosin? Or do I need to quit drinking

It would be pretty entertaining to hear them try and defend that price tag.

The sad thing is ive been to their store and they had a hex barreled russian mosin on the wall for $1200. Asked to look at it (not wanting to buy but trying to see why it was that high) He then went to the back and looked at it on his computer bc i said something to my buddy ab it, and he raised the price to $2000 because he said thats what they are going for now.

I can't imagine anyone paying $2,000 for a moist nugget unless it belonged to Simo Hayha himself

This rifle that i looked at wasnt a remington either, it was an ishvek I believe. Remingtons do fetch pretty high, but 3k though does seem pretty high even for them. Yet it is gunbroker so it doesnt surprise me

Unbelievable. Crazy. Covid has affected peoples brains,
for sure. Some folks have way too much money.

My first ever centerfire rifle was a Mosin 91/30 with a Finnish battlefield capture roll mark (Continuation war if I remember correctly). I'm pretty sure that I paid under $200. Hell, I could've held on to that beast and used it to fund a LE marked Colt...or perhaps a BMW.

How much are the carbine versions reasonably going for ?

Where made? What model? Condition? Distinguishing features?

 

[Hunt.Fish.231]

I wouldn't buy one with someone else money

I don't understand the point in owning a Mosin if they're going to be so astronomically high priced and/or completely desecrated by sporterizing. Kinda defeats the purpose.

M39s and m44s are in the 450 range, m91/30s are about $300 to $400. Hex recievers are higher, finish are higher too

I miss the days where you could buy a crate of Mosins for a few hundred.

That's just awful.
