M39 for 250.00?

Post by FinnfanCO »

I have a friend who has a early 40's m39 which is a civil guard rifle. He said it's seen some use but wanted 250.00 for it.....Is it worth pursuing?

Yes, any M39 will sell for more than that these days so long as it hasn't been messed with.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Never tell a location. I told bunkysdad about a 91/59 around here. He was like speedy Gonzales posting it on the forum. Ok in all fairness I knew he wanted it and I just bought something. :biggrin:

Time to do what we do best, turn this post into a food topic. I had the best Subway sub tonight. It was just a cold cut combo but the kid making it piled on the toppings. I got it on the new jalapeno cheese bread too. Got every veggy on it as always. Yum.


Yes, good deal on the M39 a no brainer.

I swear, I don't know how any of you afford guns with all the food talk/consumption. If we had a food thread it would out do all the number of threads on here combined. :brolleyes: :biggrin:

I had Subway last night also, it started snowing hard while I was traveling north to visit friends, I wasn't going to go out of my way for food so I stopped at the nearest spot. Tuna with Swiss all the veggies, and a second for later turkey Swiss with everything , bacon on both since they offered it and I felt it would have been rude to refuse :biggrin:

I just passed on one for the same price, I didn't love it nor do I regret not buying it.
