Re: Yet another local carbine for sale, help needed :)

I'm with desdem. $250 seems way out of line unless there is something exceptional about this T53 we don't know about. I oredered several from SOG and paid $94 per rifle (it was like $104.07 per rifle after ahipping). They are available other places for $119 or $129. $250 just seems like a ripoff to...

Re: Yet another local carbine for sale, help needed :)

He never responded to me when I asked him about the serial numbers. He only told me that "most of the Mosin's were made in china" ... I'm passing on dealing with this guy. Maybe he is mad that I told him he only had a $130-$150 rifle. Ah well...

Re: Yet another local carbine for sale, help needed :)

so what would a fair price be to offer him? $150? I'm not(i mean my dad is not) desperate and will definitely pass if he doesn't want to come down in price.

Re: Molot Russian Mosins

Oh, I gotcha, I'm on board. That is what I meant by purist. In the sense of your preservation of history, you are still what I would consider purists. Not so much the details of the tangible rifle itself, but the story of how it came to be within the proper military perimeters.

Re: Molot Russian Mosins

okay. thanks for the clarification. So this is strictly a military grade purist issue then, for collecting and 100% authenticity. gotcha. Sounds to me like there isn't much debate if it is confirmed that Molot is not considered an official military arsenal. I shall post pics of my wideners m44 when ...

Re: Molot Russian Mosins

as i understand it, the debate also involves whether or not MOLOT is actually an arsenal? I was reading this over at another forum: Funny... Molot actually IS an arsenal. However they never made Mosin Nagants. The were the arsenal that made PPSh-41s and later (and currently) the RPK. The RPK was the...

Re: Alert - Weinener's Has M-44's

they charged my card as soon as i placed my order on the 19th.... I'm thinking about emailing them. How can they be so backed up? .... unless they run the operation with very few employees. Ah well.... even though they are more than likely Molot's.... from the pictures i have seen, they look like ni...

That's not just any ammo, that's Yugo ( at least the 70's dated stuff is), what we now call Privi, not reloadable but the best commie era surplus I ever fired, commercial quality stuff. Nice 1943 with wartime expedient receiver and refurb marked laminated stock. Good deal :) is that yugo ammo of th...
