Funny, the Finns usually run $399 or so for comparable condition on GB.
For around that money, you can get a M39 Finnish Mosin, which IMO, are better shooters and usually better shape than the war weary M38's. But to each their own.
I never really paid attention to the Mosins but as of a few weeks ago, interest has risen. I didn't even know there were different models until reading this thread. If Iever had one, it would probably be an occasional plinker or a back up hunting rifle stashed in the truck.
Anyone want to teach me a few things about the Nagants? Difference in models/things to look for or watch out for, etc.?
