Finally Sent Off The Stuff For A C&R License

gandog56 · 01-05-2008, 04:37 PM

Tired of seeing all the great deals on Mosins, only to have to add a transfer fee on top of them, which makes them only so-so deals.

yzstud · 01-05-2008, 04:53 PM

i feel the exact same feeling you do. i got my application in the mail yesterday, and i am as of right now filling them out. no more wanting to buy mosins but having to pay the $30 transfer fee and i can get them shipped right to my door!!!!

gandog56 · 01-05-2008, 06:16 PM

Got the 91/30. Need to get the M38 and M44.

Just remember that when you're ordering rifles, the more you order the cheaper the shipping will be..

One might be $15 to ship, but if you add another rifle the shipping might only go up to $19, and maybe only $22 with the next rifle..

You poor bastards have no idea what you're in for...

Just go burn your credit cards now..

Say goodbye to all your money and HELLO to a nice collection.
The C & R's are great.
LONG LIVE MOINITIS!

That's why I said I needed a M38 AND a M44!

Sounds like you need to use my logic.. Buy 2 of each, shoot one and stick the other away.

And get a K31 while you're at it.. Seems to draw a crowd at the range..

I went to the range today, since it was 50 degrees out and perfect for shooting (what day isn't)..

I had my new Garand and also one of my M44's. (remember, logic) As usually happens when you're shootin' old iron at a range, everyone had to look at both rifles.. The Garand is beautiful, elegant, and damned near sexy, but the stupid $70 Mosin was the star of the show, and even more so after I fired the first round..

Even though the Garand shot better, cost more, and looks nicer, 80% of the questions were about the Mosin..

Get 2.. They're cheap and it'll only cost a bit more for shipping..

Better start shopping for a bigger safe right now!

gandog56 · 01-08-2008, 08:59 AM

Mosinitus? Sounds like I might need a Mosinectomy to separate them from my hands!

marion57 · 01-08-2008, 04:03 PM

good luck finding a good m38 all I have seen havent been a good buy but I ordered one from simpson today and paid way to much but I gotta have it , have it, have it

gandog56 · 01-09-2008, 02:14 PM

M38's do seem to be kind of rare.

marion57 · 01-09-2008, 06:25 PM

gandog56 · 01-10-2008, 05:53 PM

I was waiting in the parking lot to snatch it from him. Must have fell asleep!

gandog56 · 03-17-2008, 03:21 PM

Sent off the application 1/5/08. Got the stuff today. Danged red tape. Be still my beating wallet though.....

Geo M44 · 03-17-2008, 04:02 PM

Just shows nobody reads my posts (I feel so neglected)

SOG has M38's in,apparently, plentiful supply at this point, for $89.95 (99.95 hand select) Mine is due in on Wednesday, with an M39 in tow. Shipping was $17.50 for both.

They are still out there... but not for long.
