Nice looking gun! I think that's actually what they're going for these days as they seem to have dried up. You probably got a decent deal.

SwedeSteve · 01-08-2008, 06:18 PM

Congrats on a pretty rifle!

I.O., Inc. had them on sale for $64.95 the week of Christmas. One of them's on the way here.

marion57 · 01-09-2008, 01:00 AM

I know they did and I didnt have the money at the time to buy one almost made me wanna cry but I did buy a 1927 hex from them for 63 bucks ,, kinda made up for all the whinning I done LOL

Ricochet I'm curious I noticed allot of those have the counter bored bore's I think thats suppose to improve accuracy but never having shot one so I wouldn't know what your take on that. like to have one of those myself to back up my M44.

Ricochet · 01-11-2008, 10:05 PM

There's nothing wrong with counterboring at all. It's just a special form of muzzle crowning. Cleans up belling of the end of the bore from overzealous use of cleaning rods. Gives a sharp, even release of the bullet from the rifling. All of these Mosins are rearsenaled, and most have counterboring.

They were my first choice and yes they have them >>I am sorry but I dont like hidden charges from a dealer and canceled my order with them .. Why should i have to pay 3 bucks to sign my name.. I know its a petty thing but shipping wasnt as discribed on there web site either .. I know everyone has there favorite dealers and so do i but I suggest you screen carefully..Sorry for the long dismal post

Mooseman684 · 01-12-2008, 02:17 AM

IF you are talking about the "Adult Signature Charge" that is Standard Shipping charge Addition for Firearms delivery and part of doing business....

marion57 · 01-12-2008, 09:45 AM

sinature from everyone I have bought from has been included in the shipping cost!!! Including the M38 I bought

Not above and beyond regular shipping and 17 dollars shipping is almost 4.50 more than his web sites lists to ship..

Mooseman684 · 01-12-2008, 11:46 AM

Be glad you dont live here then...SOG charged 45.00 to ship my M39 Mosin by U.S.Mail to Alaska and adult Signature...

Ricochet · 01-13-2008, 09:48 PM

They've already disappeared from the market for a while and come back. Same with the M91/59.

marion57 · 01-14-2008, 12:40 AM
