that is cool!

SwedeSteve · 05-14-2008, 09:56 AM

I likes it! Wish I could afford to buy it...

Mooseman684 · 05-14-2008, 10:00 AM

Too bad the Bore is Pitted...Otherwise a very interesting Gal !
rich

SwedeSteve · 05-14-2008, 10:06 AM

Yep, she's more of a collector.

sean46953 · 05-14-2008, 10:31 AM

All depends on how bad the pitting is. My 91/30 has a pretty rough bore, but the rifling is still strong and it's still shoots striaght. I love these old girls and it's great to see more of them comming about, but my funds are stretched pretty tight. Wish I wouldn't got the stupid Helwan! Good pistol, but I should have held out for the old Mosins! lol

ArkansasHunter · 05-14-2008, 10:45 AM

I even like this one, though I'm not interested in buying it.

SwedeSteve · 05-14-2008, 11:08 AM

I really like the older M91's.

Capt'n Mil Coll · 05-14-2008, 11:55 AM

Cool looking ol rifle. The wood looks like its in original finish. The metal must have been refinished sometime in the past. Probably after WWII. I was wondering what the marks were for Westinghouse. Dang it I just saw some stocks marked like that at the last gun show. I would have got one if I knew that. Gotta say though most of the 91's I see at the gun shows are in better shape for around $120. to $140. range. And at the gun shows they are all checked out to be safe to fire. At least from dealers I buy from.

SwedeSteve · 05-14-2008, 12:18 PM

Yep, I was admiring the rifles. Not necessarily their prices. I wish there was a Mosin Petting Museum.

Capt'n Mil Coll · 05-14-2008, 12:58 PM

Darn right Steve and thanks for showing em. I love them ol 91's. Sorry wasnt criticizing just making remarks. Its kind of fun to critique the firearms that people are selling. I guess it comes from all the gun shows Ive been to.

sean46953 · 05-14-2008, 01:36 PM

Mosin Petting Museum...Great business oppertunity! Thanks Steve! Don't be upset when I make MILLIONS from your idea...atleast I can give you a life time of a 20%....na, 10% discount on the admission! Sorry, all items in the gift shop wll still be full price! lol

SwedeSteve · 05-15-2008, 07:14 AM

Ya, I got that Cap'n!

I am with you there STeve! Someday I would love to own one of the older rifles. The classic style writing on the receiver is so beautiful!

Geo M44 · 05-15-2008, 08:26 AM

Oh yeah. Very nice... checking the bank account... Ahhhh... No!

I have promised to keep the collection at 7 for the near term... maybe it's time to start groveling.

SwedeSteve · 05-15-2008, 09:32 AM

We should be getting Mosin Security at our age !!!!

Capt'n Mil Coll · 05-15-2008, 01:00 PM

If that rifle was $150 or so I might even consider it. That is a good idea. A gun range you could rent these old bangers. Now to find a city that will allow a gun range...

SwedeSteve · 05-15-2008, 06:58 PM

Mine will! About 1 Million to build one. Got 1 million to throw my way?

+1 I sure have been looking for a m91 but the prices keep me from buying so a petting museum would be good

SwedeSteve · 05-15-2008, 07:36 PM

OK, so then you both need to give me 500k!
