For that guy in the last thread wondering if Turkish 8mm is safe for his FN49, I present you with the Gospel of Ian. Yes, that is a 1919 top cover.

>Please, guys, don’t use this ammo. If you absolutely must, then stick to bolt action Mausers, and understand how to handle hangfires safely. But don’t let this be your 1919 or MG34 or MG42 or FN49 or G43 or Hakim. Or your fingers.

I got a sporterized No.4 Mk I for $130 at auction. 6 months later I sold it for a USP .45 Tactical. it was the most ridiculous trade I've ever done. my friends were telling me not to go because they all thought it was a scam and I was gonna get robbed. Showed up anyway, got the gun, and immediately turned around and sold it for $900.

The point is, cash out your 401k and buy guns with it instead.

If you're going to Sarasota most shops are tacticool AR's but the bullet hole in downtown Sarasota has a rack of milsurp and hunting rifles and Red Barn Gun Shop has a small selection of milsurp. Me and a friend drove around to 10 different shops the day he turned 18 and those two were the only interesting ones for milsurp and even then it's not much. Don't know about Tampa though.

yea, the rear sight is probably the worst ever put on a rifle.

almost everytime i go to take it to the range i think about that shitty sight picture and put it back in the safe.

as i said last thread, if it had a clear peep sight like the Type 99 or M1917 it would be one of the 5 best bolt action rifles of all time.

the problem with stock repairs is blending in the repair with the stock. A lot of guys repair their stock then refinish it so everything matches, but then you kill almost all the value of the gun.

>>34192195

The new imports with the billboard import stamp on them go for $200-250 regularly now.

If this is an older import with a small stamp, even if a but beat up $200 is a fair price I would say.

However, if this is a non rearsenaled gun that is worth more; especially if it matches. $600 is still too much though. An original configuration Nagant is probably worth more like $400-$500.

Well lads, I caved and bought one of the m39s from classic. Will post when it arrives so you guys can laugh at me for buying a cracked stock rifle. I hate myself.

Check the bore before anything. Most of the ammo people have shot through these is the old corrosive surplus ammo. Check the bore for any pitting or damage because sometimes ignorant people don't clean the bore properly after shooting the corrosive stuff.

Otherwise I think it's a super cool gun, especially since the make and year (1943 Izhevsk) match my Mosin (pic related), so it's like they're siblings.

>Probably any part of Europe. I'd like a semi auto if that narrows it down at all.
SKS is the cheapest, both for the rifle and the ammunition. If you want more of a cool factor go for something like the FN Model 1949 or Swedish Model 1942 Ljungmann rifle.

>>34198385
SKS is what I'd probably go with but since I have a VEPR in 7.62 I figured I'd go for something different. I'll check out the two you listed, thanks.

I was wondering if any of you guys know anything about this rifle. I got it a while back at a gun show as my first Mauser. The tag said it was Polish, but I cant find a single marking on it other than a serial number on the receiver with a single line scratched through it, and a mismatched serial on the bolt. I even disassembled the whole thing and found no other markings.

Husqvarna made their rifles and put a bent bolt in them. All the other ones are just factory cut down m96's. So if you see anything but hisqvarna with a bent bolt bubba did it.

Polish Mausers have a distinctive sling bar.

French on top, Polish on bottom.

That is also the correct stock/bolt/front sight. Scrubbed receiver is also a giveaway.

>>34199296
>$600 for shitty condition m96's with unmatching parts.

Dudes high as a kite. They ARE going up in value, by not nearly that much. I'd consider it reasonable for a matching m38, but those m96's are worth $300-400 at best.

>>34200911
Thank you for the info. Do you know why the receivers are scrubbed?

What's a good price for a K31? How common/expensive is the ammo?

>>34200926
Likely because they were sent to be used in the spanish civil war.

what's wrong with it? Can it not handle spitzer rounds or something?
http://www.gunbroker.com/item/651140878

>>34203155
so I'm thinking that might be the case. Rifle manufacture date was 1883, and obviously, spitzer bullets weren't introduced until 1898. So this rifle would basically be unfirable since there's no way it could handle the pressures, right?

Saw one at Liberty Tree for $475. Paid $600 for mine with a reloading die, brass and some ammo on chargers. Expect somewhere in the $500 range.

As the other anon said get yourself a case of RUAG ammo, it's basically match grade for surplus prices. It's disappearing fast though.

Hello /msg/.

My K31 is doing this shit at 30 yards.

Big fat group.

Contrast with the AR15A2 group beneath it, and the other ones which were zeroing groups.

I couldn't even pattern the K31 here. What do?

>>34205655
Check your crown. At 30 yards you shouldn't be seeing that kind of spread with any rifle.

>>34205689
Crown looks good to me, smother and evener than my Ishapore 2a1.

>>34205655
Check to make sure that your rear sight leaf is secure, and not just wobbling around.

>>34205770
It is rock solid. I can hardly lift it up for the strong leaf spring. Side to side is not possible.

>>34205832
If we're just stepping through things we would check: next I'd check the bolt lockup. Also, stick an unfired 7.5x55 bullet tip in the crown end of the bore and tell us how far it goes in.

>>34205832
>Bolt lockup
How?

>bullet into crown
Precisely 3/16 of bullet remain outside of the bore to the case. Difficult to measure because the crown is concave.

>>34191341
I just ordered a standard vkt, what can i expect?

>>34194754
Clean your room you sperg

>>34205655
Is the stock contacting the barrel at the end? There's this bubba mod where they "free float" the barrel and it fucks with the accuracy surprise surprise.

>>34205904
Expect it to be counterbored, expect to take it to the gunsmith to have the crack bedded and repaired, as far as the condition, it really seems like a crap shoot, I ordered a VG and had to send it back because it was in something closer to Fair condition. But I have a beautiful example as a replacement that was still in then "good" lot

>>34205956
>Is the stock contacting the barrel at the end?
Yes. It is dark black from blueing heating up into the wood and is waxy and dense. Inside the stock of course.

Anyone here have a Jarmann?

It exempts many (most?) collectible US firearms from US importation laws.

Specifically it's intended to overturn Obama's blocking to the repatriation of the South Korean Garands, but it should apply to other guns as well.

Thought about getting my dog in the photo here, but he's too fat so I let him be

>>34211266
Maybe if you weren't so dumb you could've had a Lebel by now.

>>34211322

I hate to ask this but could you be flinching? Also are you comfortable with two stage triggers? Apart from everything else that has been mentioned that is the only thing I could think of to ask.

I know I still flinch with large(r) caliber rifles which is why I bought an Ishapore 2a1. Figured 7.62 NATO is cheap and I wouldn't feel super terrible about putting 'mileage' on it.

>>34210464
I love shooting mine, it's as accurate as the dickens, and surplus ammo is match grade by default.

>>34211421
Possibly. If so, what can I do to mitigate?

>>34186773
Are there any common/cheapish guns like the mosin that aren't the mosin? I want a bolt action but not something modern. How much are Swedish Mausers and where can I find them? Is ammo for them hard to find and is it expensive? What about regular Mausers?

>>34211545
I got my Swedish Mauser for 250 on Facebook. They're 500+ now on classic firearms

Turkish or South American Mausers. Ammo won't be "cheap" for either though. Milsurp isn't a cheap mans game anymore boss.

>>34211545
cheapest rifle you'll find is >>34211274
as you can see it's not very pretty,but it works

>>34211596
what is bolt face erosion
what is headspace
what is 7.62 nato and .308win incompatabilties
what is turd in a stock
Mosins are still better than that.

please kill me the truth hurts

>>34211746
yes, but mosins seem to go for about $100 more, and by the way it's in 7x57 and the head space is fine. And didn't that guy say he didn't want a mosin?

>>34211470
To both of my questions? Shoot more.

It is a 1940 m/28-30 I've had for years.

Where are you getting a rifle for -5 dollars?

>>34211574
>Milsurp isn't a cheap mans game anymore
Why? The guns are still old, arcane, and difficult to use (all in an appreciatable way). Why are you guys paying so much for them and ruining the market/appeal? Just buy one and done. If you've shot one crusty old bolt action you've shot them all.

>>34212103
>Why are you guys paying so much for them and ruining the market/appeal?
What? Is this a serious question?

>>34212128
Yes. The appeal was that they were cheap. Why wouldn't I just go buy a brand new savage rifle that hasn't been whored out to some third world conscripts and isn't all worn down and shot out.

>>34211988
>Shoot more
I got plenty of Gp11, so that will work. I understand two stage triggers and take up the slack for the benifits of second stage.

>>34212179
The appeal is to collectors. That's who wants surplus and who will pay for it. Not Bubba looking for something cheap to practice his butchery skills on.

i dont know i doubt it, nobody outside the US owns arisakas in any appreciable market quantity and even in the USA how big of a market is it, is it worth the trouble of them to give up the time making other popular cartridges? i wont say never, but i wouldnt hold my breath
