How is the milsurp market these days?

[MILSURP Collector]

I was watching hickok45 and I really wonder what you gentlemen think.
I know that this might sound impossible for us as milsurp collectors, BUT
What are the 2 bolt action (milsurp) rifles you'd never sell?
@Brown556 , Hayata , @Linachaw , @enfieldguy , alleycat , 10thmountain , MILSURP Collector ????
For me probably the Swiss K31/SwedeM96

Tough one but they would probably be my Israeli 98k and my Model 1917 Eddystone. It has an Elmer Keith cartouche.

I would sell anything in my collection, Most of them never get used but maybe 1 -2 x per year . Sometimes life for better or worse gets in the way of collecting, So does collecting interests and shooting disiplines that can change

One more comment . I think it’s our / your job to preserve the rifles we collect for the next guy who will love and enjoy them .

So I shouldn't drill and tap them all for scopes? Hahaha

I agree and not only for the next guy but the next generation. The history is awesome

Oh praise Sweet Baby Jesus!!!

C'mon carbine ammo!!!

Best thing about carbine ammo is that is was designed from the get-go to be non-corrosive.

Any good rumors about CMP South store opening any time soon?
