I was at Cabelas yesterday, and they had a bunch of Mosin Nagants. That in itself isnt unusual... however about 10 of them were identically "sporterized". They had synthetic Mossy Oak stocks, and looked pretty nice. They were tagged as "new", and priced $149. I dont know exactly what model they are, but the barrels are longer than M44's.
They also had a couple decent looking M44's, for $159. If I buy an M44, it will stay all original.
Should I even consider buying a sporterized MN? Are they reasonably accurate with iron sights? I think the MN in Mossy Oak would be a cool short range deer rifle. I know, I know... "bubba" and all that jazz. But what are your thoughts?
Do these prices sound OK?
Obviously they are more expensive than ordering them online, but since this is the only place I've found them locally, paying a little more than usual might be worth the convenience.
