The latest batch all look great. The M44's I've seen so far are all 1946 Russian, and are MINT. The 91/30's have been re-arsenaled to mint, although most have stock repairs. They come with a sling, ammo pouch, oiler and cleaning kit. There are around 80 of each at the moment. Only downside is the most recent shipment are import marked. It sounds like all future milsurp imports to Canada are going to be that way

mine was just delivered.
wow, they look unissued. mint condition, stock doesnt have a single ding in it, basically you are getting a 'new' gun for $149. highly recommended, although it takes them a longass time to actually transfer the gun and ship it - over 2 weeks.

Canam should be getting some more in the next year or so. He apparently has found a "source". Stack'em tall and deep when they come, don't know when more will show!
P.S. - love my 91/30. Probably my most used rifle.
I got a 91/30 from SIR a few years ago which was rearsenalled. It basically looked new with perhaps a few minor marks from storage etc. The bore showed some signs of wear but had sharp rifling and gives around 3-4" groups at 100 meters with surplus ammo. Aside from the import marks I was very pleased.
I've purchased several rifles and shotguns from Tradeex and can give nothing but praise for thier goods and services. They dropped their prices on Mosin Nagants a couple of days ago due to the fluxuations in US currency. You might find the shipping from Montreal to be less expensive and may want to look at other options like thier M38s and laminated M44s as well. If their 91/30s are free of import marks, that would certainly make the $20/30 extra that you might be paying well worth it.
Good Luck,
Frank

just bought one from sir (i live about 60 k away from sir) i spend around 1k-3k in sir every month, they are great to deal with , my mosin came with a bayonet, oil bottle and pouch , no ammo available atm but the rifle is in great shape, i am going to take the wood stock off and replace it with a synth stock though so my stock will be available as soon as i find my new stock , oh and the rifle does not have the bolt pre-bent and is an original(all matching #'s) etc.... 1942 stamped prices are also down to 119 cdn atm as well
Friend of mine bought one of the SIR Moisin-Nagants back in September and we have been playing with it ever since. After glass-bedding and with handloads, consistent 5-inch called 3-round groups from a colad barel, at 350 measured yards, in a crosswind.
Can't complain, not for an iron-sighted 65-year-old combat rifle!

I just ordered an M91/30.....I just couldn't pass up the deal and have them sell out on me.
I bought an M44 from SIR two years ago and was very pleased with it. This M91 is gonna be a sniper repo project.....it'll go great with the SVT40 the GF just bought me
