I got most of this stuff from a friend. long story, I have no idea what some of them are, or what if anything is worth because all have unique flaws. I'd like some ideas before I throw them on ee.

the long curved stripper clips are form asks, I don't know what the short one could be. probably Russian, did the 7.62x25 come on clips? any of this worth anything?

303 enfield, sporterised. how would one know if it is rare?



nagant. I was there when he opened it, it didn't look as if it ever had been fired. the receiver was full of proofing marks. he filed off the front sight, now it is painted black. bore looks excellent, the scope mount is drilled into receiver. Original stock has been sporterised then disposed off. I'm not sure if he ever shot it, I didn't.



svt 40. with scope rail and a no-drill scope mount that wouldn't stay tight, it got drilled. I can't explain. rifle looks brand new. came with 25 once-shot s&b brass and rcb reloading die
 
7.62x25 actually did come on clips. There's some Mosin accessories, some SVT tools, some x54 and x39 and x25 clips. And whoever did that to a poor innocent Mosin should be dipped in honey and fed to ants, badgers, and mosquitos.
 
Czechoslovakia had a sub-machine gun chambered for the 7.62x25mm cartridge. I think the magazine capacity was thirty-two rounds. They packed ammunition for it on eight round stripper clips. (Four clips x eight rounds loads thirty-two in the magazine.)

Pictures B and C look like ammo pouches and oil bottles issued in the eastern bloc for use with the Mosin-Nagant service rifles and the SKS.
 
A is a mosin cleaning kit
B ammo and Oiler pouches for mosin Nagant
C is an Oiler for an sks or mosin
D looks like 7.62x39 stripper clips
E looks like assorted mosin slings
 
In E the blue sling is a Mosin one and the green ones are the Soviet era (original) SKS slings. F shows a few spam cans of 7.62x54Rmm Soviet ammo each containing 440 rounds (to feed a Mosin). This is, likely, the most precious part of a gift you received. With vendors 880 rounds (2 spam cans) cost about $380. I can see 9 spam cans in the picture. So, if you sell it for a competitive price of, say, $160 per can, you easily have about $1500 worth of merchandise. The only problem is that you would have to sell it locally. Shipping cost would kill the deal.
