New Arrivals: the Holy Grail of Mosin Nagants !!! Finnish M39 Rifles in 7.62x54R

To bad i striked out, i am empty handed this morning got an email from Anthony stating my no 12 was all ready sold... Oh well snit happen... JP.
 
It would be interesting to know how many they got in. Classic had not many left to sell and the stocking dealers got fewer than usual. Can't be that many.
 
I was on the fence yesterday?? I was until I watched hickok45's vid. Then I ordered.
The one I ordered yesterday was SOLD.
So with some back and forth with Anthony this morning it looks like I have one.
Good stuff... Now we need some K31's!!!!!!! Or K11's

Congratulations to whoever has Order#23693, as they are the new custodian of M39-04, hahahaha.

I figured that when I woke up on the west coast all the newly added ones would be gone - but after some e-mails with Anthony it looks like I am going to receive M39-21.

Thank you Anthony and everyone at Trade-Ex for your great customer service and for bringing in these rifles for sale in the first place.

Was talking with Anthony earlier on my own order confirmation and he said it's been crazy keeping up with the requests/inquiries on these.
 
Wow some great sneaks and b barrels posted today. I already have a sneak but must resist ordering a b in addition to the VKT I ordered... MasterCard is tempting me...

Pardon my ignorance - but what is a "sneak"?

What is a "sneak rifle"?

A "sneak rifle" is a term that has become popular here in the USA to describe the later made (1960's-1970's) dated M39 rifles. The term is not really correct as it came into being on incorrect information based on a believed ban on SAKO's production of military rifles. The basis for this term is entirely incorrect but has become accepted by some. Many collectors will not use this term and do not like this term, and I happen to be one of them.

Sako - 59,278
VKT - 38,990
B barrel - 12,889
SkY - 10,588
Tikka - 5,000
