LOL. The one in the EE was "BTT with price INCREASE" - seller upped it $50. Too funny.

I saw that, never seen a BTT price increase

Maybe the $50 increase is a bargain. Time will tell.

My advice - buy one now. This will be a $2000 mosin within a few months. Perhaps the rarest mosin ever to be offered for sale in Canada - no, I'm not kidding. I ordered one already.

Thanks for the advertising guys.

You've been undercut though....

Since the price is steadily going up, my wtt ad is looking like a great deal for someone!!!

Most pictures from the previous posts are gone. Don't use Photobucket. C'mon guys, I still need to find some interesting variations and you stopped posting your rifles and old pics are gone. Anyone is having buyer's regrets or just willing to part with his rifle?

Do you have an SVT-40 you're willing to trade plus cash?

 

[Horilka]

I might have. PM inbound.

Well this is interesting. The one that just listed has the same SN as one of mine.

He has good feedback and has been a member for a while. I hope it's just a misunderstanding......I hope....

I've never posted any pics of mine. I have no question that both are authentic. If fact, I tried to buy this one too but just missed it.

Oh ok. I was thinking someone was trying to rip someone off. That is very strange then

Post pictures of yours - it would be cool to see same serials. Maybe prefix differs?

Same prefix too. Unless I've made a mistake recording mine. I will confirm when I get home from work, and post pics if they are indeed the same.

 

[Claven2]

I'm guessing different prefixes. But there was a war on, so who knows?

 

[PinkyPlinker]

D-A error on my part. Lazy recording. Still pretty cool though.

Yep, different prefixes, but still way cool and improbable.

Neat rifles, have trouble seeing these as $1000 rifles though.

I have the exact same feeling about Lee Enfield and m1's.

There are only 50ish of these in Canada and from what I hear 500 released worldwide. They are the closest thing to an original 91/30 we're going to get. They are all "lightly" refurbished. Mine is all matching original parts and stock with all its cartouche's on it. The only refurb I can see is a light sanding of my bolt.
I think their price is justified. A lightly refurbished 91/30 without the attached bayonet would sell for some good coin. Add in the Semin bayonet and the low availability of this rifle and you have justified the price of these.

Who knows what these will cost in the future....
