The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

We all know the price of milsurps can vary greatly depending on where you live. I was hoping to get a general approximate value of this P-17 and any input on it. I'm using it as a chance to learn about these as my experience is very limited.

The rifle has typical dents and dings, has a Remington stock, and no import marks that I noticed. 10-17 barrel date. I took photos of everything that I could get to come out clearly. Bore is all gunked up. Hard to tell condition but it looks like a lot of it is cosmo. There are light tool/jaw marks on the front band like it had been clamped for some reason, but they aren't too bad. How much is she worth guys?

I would say they run in the 450 -750 range. I know a forum guy just bought one for 650 I think and it was in fantastic shape. There is a bubba in a store here for 325 with cut stock and smooth bore.
How much for the mas36 there?

There is a Winchester with less then a day and it is up to 1100 near.

The MAS is cheap because it's a bubba. I didn't look close.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Looked pretty good on gb and maybe the top line is higher and the starting line is a little higher also. Maybe a 650 median or so. seen a couple close in condition for 599 and up.

The shop will probably go for something around $530 otd on this one but thats about it.

I don't think you would lose money on that. Have not seen an unbubbad 17 here for years. I don't think this falls in your limit though

Definitely not. But I'm always looking to learn and this definitely helps with that.

I checked just eddystones and they were up there on some. There was only the one Winchester and it was the highest ($1080). I know that these have been redone and are marked with the depot and the inspector? not sure if it has the year. A lot of the barrels are toast if not refurbed. Seems like I seen somewhere that the Winchester parts were out of spec sometimes and would not interchange with the other rifles until later in production.

That is a very good price if the bore is good, I haven't seen a decent US M1917 for under $600 in years.

Looks like a Remington Marked stock on that one.I'd say around $600 bucks.

I saw 2 today at the gunshow. One for 1300 and one for 950.

yikes

I'll bet you that they stayed there

I'm sure they did. The 1300 one was sure nice looking though. I didn't dare touch it at that price.

Milsurps vary depending where you live though a U.S. Model 1917 is pretty much bringing like everyone said $600.00-1100.00 bucks everyplace these days. I see a lot of high priced rifles at shows and on shop walls, one thing I never see, anyone buying at the top end of that price range unless in really great shape.

I wanted one and looked at them for a few weeks..They priced from 450 to 1000.
I ended up getting this one..It ships Tomorrow..

Boy that is nice. Congrats!!!

I think that is well worth the 650.

I'd say someplace in the $600ish range.
