Price is good. Not having inspected an import by Cole personally, I can't vouch for their authenticity. Somebody?

I called them 2 weeks ago. They are out of it, and won't take any order. They said that to call back in April.

I guess that it does not really matter.

Well, since nobody seems to have any first-hand experience, I will pass along what I have heard from several people at mosin nagant dot net

Of the many posts I have read overthere before I bought my replica 91/30, it seems that Cole's has both replicas (for something like $500 IINM) and the real deal you listed above. Also, his reputation on that board is very good, unlke that of some other dealers we won't mention.

BTW, if I could do it all over again I would have waited a bit longer and gotten the real deal from Cole's instead of the replica. The replica is fun and accurate and not a bad deal since it works well and is a well done replica, but a real one is supposed to be fitted by an armorer (instead of being fitted by me ) and have a trigger job. Also, with a real one, you have pride of ownership. HTH and here is a pic of my replica
