The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Guys at work were talking about buying precious metal the other day.

Well my precious metal arrive from Cabelas today.

Love the Black Friday sales.Russian SKS rifles on sale for $199 each so I ordered three.

Soviet SKS is all right, but precious metal...well, I don't know about that. If we were talking three M1 Garands, GI Joes rifle, and for $199 each then that would be the dream all right. Oh wait, not a dream for me, reality, I did that back in '91, but it was for $175 each

I've lost money on a few ounces of gold and the same with silver.

But the price of milsurps only goes up as you well know.

For that price, I'd bust the budget and get a dozen! Those look great,especially for that price.

You are on a fucking roll Sonny. Shotguns, SKSs. You go.

At that price yes there is still plenty of upside. However nothing only goes up. Milsurps are not an exception. Congrats on the purchase.

When bad times hit weapons rocket up in value very quickly. I have the strong suspicion that we will soon be experiencing interesting times. Having some extra weapons stashed away is a very good idea, ammo too.

If it gets that bad ammo and antibiotics will be more valuable than gold or platinum

That is less than half the price of Yankee SKSs. Congrats, those look really nice, Sonny, lets see some more pics.

Well these were advertised as Russians but I think a couple of them might have some Chinese in them.
Two have no year stamp on the dust cover.Two have what looks like Chinese release lever on the gas tubes.
Two have light coloured rear sights but I'm not sure if that means anything.

Anyways here a few pics.

Ones Russian, the other two Sino Soviet '56's I think. Helluva deal.

Yeah, considering beat-up Nornicos were priced at $475 at the last gun show I attended...
