Gentlemen,
I have been looking for a decent Mosin recently and my local gun shop just got some Finnish M39s in. They are asking $400 and I think they have 4 of them.
This is the description:
"VALMET MFG 1944, ALL MATCHING, ARSENAL RECONDITIONED AND NEVER ISSUED, MINT BORE-VERY LIMITED AVALIABILITY. HANG TAG ATTACHED!!!"
This shop has been very good to me, very honest and very fair prices in the past. Is $400 worth it for one of these? I'm having a hard time deciding because I can always pick up a beat to crap M44 for <$100. Would something like this be worth $300 more? Are they good shooters or does the price indicate more of a collector's item?
Thanks,
Dope
