Does /k/ think this nugget + bayonet with worth 225 of my shekles?

>>34082135
That bore looks like a sewer pipe.

>>34082135
Do you like/collect milsurp? Then yes. Otherwise no, leave it for a collector and buy an AR.

>>34082135
>for $225 I cant really find anything better

Then maybe you need to save up a little more and buy a good gun?

>>34082135
Its worth it, get while you can.

>>34082135
>nugget
>worth anything

Why do people keep buying this shit

>>34082135
If it's just plinking, a .22lr rifle is the cats pajamas. Ammo is cheap as shit, no recoil, and there arre plenty of good things to choose from. A 10/22 will last as long as your bloodline, and has a wicked aftermarket. Crickett makes a single shot bolt gun that's as small and light as you can legally have it. If you want a levergun, go for either a Henry, or a Marlin 39A.

You are looking at a Model 91/30 made by Izhevsk Mechanical Factory in 1942. It is literally the most common Mosin rifle, being the highest-production year ever. It has been though at least one refurbishment, indicated by the "Triangle-25" marking. Since the numbers don't match I personally wouldn't spend $225 on it, but then I have other nuggets already. I see it as a $150 rifle, being that the bore is in good condition but parts are mis-matched and the finish is heavily worn.

Not op but thank you for actually replying

Op here
>>34082273
Thank you for the genuine reply. The gun had a sticker price of 299, guy said he'll sell for 225. I'll be back there Tuesday and see if I can knock him down some, I think I remember something about the owner buying mosins for $179 so I'll try for $190

>>34082190
I have more than enough to buy even up to an $800 rifle, I just don't want to right now. If I could actually duur hunt with a rifle is probably spend more but for now I'm more or less just looking at fun factor

>>34082231
Although I agree with you I already have an AR15 and was thinking about getting a 22lr adapter bolt for it. However right now I'm looking for a bolt action that has a bit more range than a .22

>>34082177
Buy it and cut it down just to spite this faggot

>>34082231
the recoil is a feature

>>34082273
Ok I know what the word refurbished means, but what does that mean for the rifle? Would that not be a good thing?

>what does that mean for the rifle?
Means it was gone over by an armorer who replaced any parts that were out of spec to bring the rifle back into factory specifications. What it means is that the rifle no longer has all (or even most) of the parts it originally left the factory with, and usually not the same kind of wood or metal finish. Post-war Soviet refurbs used a cheaper finish because the Mosin was no-longer the front-line service rifle of the USSR and thus less money was allocated to maintain them in storage. To some collectors having the rifle as close to factory-original as possible is paramount; some don't even like handling wear on original parts and will pay top-dollar for the rarely-encountered rifle with factory-original parts and yet with hardly any wear to them.
>Would that not be a good thing?
All depends on what you want from the rifle. It's good if you want a cheap plinking gun. If you want a rifle that looked EXACTLY like it would have when it was handed out to some Ivan in 1942, it isn't. It is all a matter of personal taste.

You say so champ.

>7.62x54r around here is pretty much the same price as .308. Store offers 20 round boxes for $9.99.
How long do you think that will continue to be the case?

I'll also point out that there are also collectors (okay, these are the weirder kind of collectors but yeah, they exist) that go for the least matching most oddball beat to shit trench arted up cleaned with piss and oil bore-like-a-shotgun surplus rifles.

I do, for one.
