Out in the shed I have old copys of shotgun news from the early 90's, you don't want to see the prices in there. I don't call it the happy time for no reason :)

I have a crystal ball and it looks grim for the year 2022. I see antique Mosin ammo for 50.00 for a box of 20. Gone are the happy times when it came in spam cans. Gone are refurbs from the crate, but there are several unmolested used 91/30 Tula rifles, with bayonet and oil bottle, for 499.95. Russian Capture 98K special while they last: 999.00! Finnish M39 post war rifles- out of stock, not expecting any more.

Does anyone remember what Oswald paid for his mail order rifle. I think I remember it was real cheap for sniper with a scope.

Don't let 2022's high gun prices trouble you Russell, nuclear war, widespread disease pandemics, the collapse of social order, and the outbreak of the Zombie apocalypse will make sure we are long gone by that time :)

Some of us saw this coming back then, I dropped everything and started buying 7.62x51mm in multi crate lots before the prices shot up.
