Geo M44 · 04-27-2008, 10:24 AM

That appears to be the infamous SVT-40...

SwedeSteve · 04-27-2008, 10:30 AM

That is a Finn TKIV-85 Sniper. Based on a MN.

squirrelbaster · 04-27-2008, 10:32 AM

SwedeSteve · 04-27-2008, 10:46 AM

Great! Let us know what you find!

Geo M44 · 04-27-2008, 11:01 AM

Oooops! Wrong picture. I was looking at the one before that.

SwedeSteve · 04-27-2008, 12:13 PM

That's a PU Sniper.

Mosin Shooter · 04-27-2008, 01:51 PM

The first 3 pics are Mosins, the 4th is the SVT-40 and the 5th is the Finn TKIV-85 Sniper.

4 is SVT-40

Mosin Shooter · 04-27-2008, 05:48 PM

and that SVT-40 is in the rarer sniper configuration, very nice.

Heres what I've seen on websites:
SVT-40:$600-$800
SVT-40 Mags:$100-$200
SVT Sniper Mounts and Scopes:$300-$400

So its a very expensive rifle to buy and its even harder to find.

And you need an engineering degree to take apart I've heard.

Just the reproduction mounts are going for $300 -- have seen several reproduction scopes and mounts in the $500 range BUT then you would need to notch the back of the receiver which would kill the value of the SVT40.

One sold at an auction close to here and it had an original scope and mount but not sure if the rifle was an original sniper notched by the Russian as they would not let me take the scope and mount off to verify.

It went for $2000 but I was worried that the rifle was not original as not many original SVT40 sniper rifles were imported so I stopped bidding after $1500, figured the sum of the parts were worth that but no more then that.

Mosin Shooter · 04-27-2008, 06:19 PM

Shoulda kept bidding, even if it was original, it would've been awesome to own.

SwedeSteve · 04-28-2008, 09:14 AM

It would be a great addition for sure!

Shoottathril200 · 04-28-2008, 09:48 AM

Thats something is it not? 15 years ago a local dealer here was selling SVT 40's for around $350. Its one of those kick me things for not buying one.

SwedeSteve · 04-28-2008, 02:18 PM

OK, somebody kick him!

I dont think so !! now if you had past one up 5 yrs ago for 350 u would need booting.. 15 yrs ago there were a lotta crappy SVT40's that were cobbled together by the importers

SwedeSteve · 04-30-2008, 12:57 AM
