Well worth the price. Not everyone will have a mint M91.

It was highly misunderstood, and I hope that I pointed out why it is so significant. It is far from a usual New England Westinghouse. It's one that should have been shipped to Russia, as the contract was still valid at the time of its manufacture. It is not a US Surcharged production, as most that are in that condition are seen. Instead, it is possibly of the most rare NEW offerings to own.

Worth every penny.
There is another type thread on one close to this that just sold. If a mint Polish carbine is worth $500 nowadays I'd say it's an ok price for something much older and with more history.

Very Very Nice Rifle :thumbsup:

I have a friend back in England that has one of the Last Triumph Bonneville's ever made in Meriden ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triumph_Engineering ) And It has never been out of the Box , He opens the side of the Box and cleans It and sprays It with some rust stopper , The Tires are off and kept separate .

Very Strange I think , and I bet he is not the only one , Bike must be worth a fortune now :ani-pop:

;mywink;
I have a Enfield Mo4 MKII that is arsenal new in the wrap, never been out of the wrap, and going to stay that way :)

Ten years ago, hopefully it's still as nice today as it was back then.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.
