Isn't it sweet when you can get rifles shipped straight to your door? It's even sweeter for me since I live in Commiefornia. Enjoy the rifle!

OK, I've been looking at this rifle too and thinking about getting one. Now that you have one maybe you can answer a couple questions for me. Is it counterbored? What shape is the bore in? Sure looks nice on the outside but would like more info from an actual owner.

$79.95 plus shipping.It's counter-bored.Rifling looks crisp.Stock is pretty good too.Forgot to add-the importer is RGuns,which is about 15 minutes from my house.I knew they had M44's and round receiver 91/30's,didn't notice any hex ones tho.

In this case I think it's an empty pile of steel...

How high are your expectations for $80-$100.

We are all actual owners, and we think they are worth every $. Buy one and see.

I will agree with most, but add, WHY would you buy a R GUNS Mosin that engraves a HUGE Billboard on your receiver? You care about counterboring, with that huge piece of crap pasted on your receiver? B4real!

Pisses ya off when they stamp or engrave the importers mark on those nice old Battle rifles dont it. Sort of like painting moustaches on Mount Rushmore. Nice rifle Jackinil I got one just like it. Could be twins. Cant wait to blast away with mine.

I know RGuns does put a large"billboard" on the ones they import. I guess I figured being in Illinois myself and ordering fron Ohio I wouldn't get a rifle imported by a place 10 minutes from me!

Well, Swede, how do you really feel? LOL!

I understand what you are saying. BUT, sometimes you have to take the good with the bad. My Tula m44 has the Rguns stamp. Nice gun, not counterbored, serves me Vodka tonics at night and doesn't snore. Gets kinda loud at times though.
