Mosin Nagant M44 $199.95...worth it?

[pheenix42]

Worth it, or overpriced? Pretty good condition from what I could see of it.

IMHO, It would have to be a rare one or in outstandingly superb condition for $200!!!

The only way it's worth $200 is if Stalin signed it himself.

 

[VanillaThunder]

ditto.... but lemme guess, they also have Yugo SKS's for the low price of $300-$350?

no thanks...

 

[booey50]

no way pass on that one and get a 9130 for 89.99

If it is a Russian M44 it is over priced unless it is dated 1943 (only 50,000 1943 Russian M44s). The Polish made M44s run from $200 to $300. The Hungarian and Romanian M44s also sell for more than the Russian M44s.

i think the 125-150 range is much better.

shoot, i have a 91/30 to get move with a "pretty" laminate stock and about 100rds for 130

i just picked up 2 M-44's off an old timer in greensburg for $90 each that are in excellant condition.so yeah id say $199.95 price you speak of is ridiculous.

 

[Turtle]

You gonna get ripped off. But if your that gullible I got ocean front property in Indianapolis I can cut yo a nice deal on.

I was wandering around Warsaw yesterday looking for a Mosin in good shape to take home with me. I hit every shop in town, including Dunhams, and only saw 4 Mosins. Dunham's had 2 91/30s for $165 /ea, Little Hawks had a 59 in bad shape for around $150, and Eagle Creek had an 1953 M44 in fantastic shape, but they wanted $225 for it. Now I wish I could have made it to the Indy1500 last weekend.

There weren't a whole lot down here at the show, either...

Not that I was specifically looking for them, but I didn't notice many, either.

-J-

 

[boozoo]

There were some... not as many as I might have expected but I did see one table in particular with M44's and a couple of M38's.

 

[Scutter01]

I was specifically looking for cheap Mosins at the 1500. There was exactly one 91/30 running $89. EVERYTHING else was $150+, even for the beat-up stuff.

Hey,

I know where you can get a Yugo SKS for a little more than that. But it comes with about $150 in extras.......


<Mods kinda of a joke post, not meant to violate the bump rule. just a point of reference for the OP>

 

[VanillaThunder]

OK, keep the extras and i will take the rifle! $225?


last time i was in Dunhams in Warsaw, they had no Mosins. Auburn had a couple beat up 91/30s for $159.

Let's take this to PM's to not threadjack anymore than I have already....

 

[Look2thewest]

I bought mine pre obama for $89 and thats just about the top of what i would pay for one honestly.

You can still order 91/30s from AIMSurplus if you can find an inexpensive place to do transfer than the price is not to bad.
