    Friend selling his collection..need input..

    Only 3 guns:
    Long Branch .303 Enfield (not sure of the date yet)
    1904 Finn Capture Mosin M91
    1945 (April) M1 Garand

    He mentioned $2500....... I'm somewhat sceptical.. Any input on prices?

    I'm figuring $200 for the 303 & maybe the same for the Mosin....

    The Enfield could be $275-$300+. The M91 Finn capture is probably $300-$350. Garand $650-$900. (Everything depends on condition as well).

    I'll agree, he's optimistic.

        $1100? 600 CMP Garand, 300 Enfield, 200 Mosin Nagant. Add another 400 if Garand is Correct Grade or $1500???

                  Regular Finn captured M91/30, yeah $200. But an M91 is not the same model. It's worth more. True you can get a Garand from the CMP for $600. However, finding them in the wild for that price is rare (unless they're beaters).

                        Maybe it is a Finn "91/30", it's about 3in longer than my Izzys & Tula 91/30's.

                        Hex receiver, not sure of the date on top of the receiver, the 1904 was on the bottom of the tang.. He bought it 30 years ago as a wall hanger, then he saw my Mosins & asked me to clean it up & go fire it, which I did.

                        Leather band is because I was waiting on a steel replacement original..
