| 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 |

| 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.

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

| 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.

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!

| 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...
