What's the story with this stock? And is $350 a reasonable price? Sorry I don't have any more pics.

Looks like an M27 in a M27 stock, $350 is a good price.

No biggie. Last m27 with unit disk I saw sell was north of 500.

What's with the butchered SKS with the flashlight attached for $350.00?? A little gun show tip, next time you, (You in general, not you personally.),see something Mosin you can't identify, bring up the forum on that phone you carry to take pictures and do a search for that unknown item. That way you won't make RG00 cry.

I would buy that in a heartbeat for $350. Matter of fact, I would have a hard time concealing my excitement.

Unfortunately I wasn't there looking for mosins, so I didn't think to bring it up on the forum then or take better pics. It wasn't until later that it started creeping into my mind, and now I can't get it out.... :mrgreen:

Yeah, I would have snatched that up immediately and not let go. M27's are rare enough, and with a stock disc, it is even rarer.

It's not the end of the world. You can keep going to gun shows and you might find another like that in the next 10 years. Maybe it is still there today.

I just seen it has the stock made for the popsicle sticks but no popsicle sticks present. I'm pretty sure I have one just like that. Does that mean it's the wrong stock for that rifle?

Without being able to see the whole stock it's hard to tell. The front sling hangers are strange to that stock also.

Some of the stocks are like that. They'll have the cutout for the popsicle type front band, yet use a different band.
