I am waiting on two more crates at the local GS, they just have to sell the 40 Mosin refurbs inside them first. No, nothing special about the rifle, at least nothing I don't already have.

I could use one, my CFG liked the illuminated coffee table display idea .... I would take off the lid and replace with an acrylic plate.

I wonder how much the shipping would be East-West.....probably an arm and a leg!

:idea: I'll call Mitchell's Mausers, I could pick it up myself. :idea:

Good deal, I need to get 35 people to buy a 91/30 so I can get my next two crates, or one guy to buy 35 rifles :lol: :lol: :lol:

you could take 1 crate and cut it in half and make end tables out of it and store ammo in them.

It would be interesting to see the markings on the crate. I look forward to your pix!

Nice to know, I could have used that crate, I have carbines to fill a crate but no crate for carbines.
