Mosin Nagant Sightings at Cabelas...

[10thmountain]

You have to really want one...$299.00

They had 13 total 91/30's.

All were round receivers.

I did not pick them all up and check the years and makers.

Some had silver replacement cleaning rods.

Stocks looked nice.

I think you are better off buying one off the ODT for $200 or less.

When i went in to laugh at their prices they were all pretty much 1943 and 42 years, Izhevsk, and had tarnished brass caps on the handguards. I agree with your buy on ODT assesment.

I have seen them on here for sub $200 prices. Seen Finns For Sub $300 .... Seen M44's for $250-$275...

If you know the collectors personally they will cut you a deal sometimes. But I aint calling out my sources. LOL

They have had those puppies for a few weeks now.

 

[10thmountain]

I am sure they have.

Tough sell.

Then to go through the Cabelas checkout process etc etc..

they were around $50 at roses and other retailers way back . now $300 . where do you think the price is going ? if you don't have one and are sitting on the fence , jump now . why a mosin? because sometimes people hide behide stuff .
