Russian M91/30 for $619.99 at Big 5

[bigdawg86]

Is it me or are they delusional? They had another one right next to it for $179.99... I just was burning time and was kinda surprised when I saw this. Are they worth that much? Cause I always hear people talk about the hundred dollar Mosin an this ain't it!

You sure it wasn't one of those sniper reproductions? Thats happened to me before and have had to look twice.

Does sound like a sniper repo price. i would have asked to see it.

[Drey]

Its a sniper reproduction, I saw them a few times already

[bigdawg86]

The tag said "Russian M91/30 Sniper Rifle"... I didn't bother asking to see it cause the price. Are the reproductions worth the price.

I owned one years ago. At the time it was under $300 new. seeing how repos are going from $450 to big 5s $600 that will be up to you price wise. The mount seemed solid, the optics were ok. Accuracy wise, mine shot good just like an average 91/30because it was. There was no special selection process at Century other than a clean rifle and bore.

My immediate reaction is they goofed up on the tags but you can verify the situation easily.

$619 for a repro? Plus tax and dros? I don't think I'd spend that much. You are probably better off with a straight shooting 91 that you can hang a PU scope onto for three or four hundred.

Double post

[CEDaytonaRydr]

Yeah, I think you can get those for about $399 or $499 at some of the C&R vendors...

No. No they are not.

I'd pass, since it's a repro. For that much money, you can "make" your own with any other standard $89 M91/30, get Jim "The Boltman" Robert to make your bolt handle a sniper-repro for $57, install a Jmeck no-drill scope mount on it for $90, and stick a Redfield or Nikon $150 scope on it. You've got a heckuva shooter. Total expenditure (before CA DROS) = $376, with kick-butt, modern optics. Not bad, eh? :-)

i figure a mosin is about $150
well they did have to hand select a mosin with a good bore so thats $100 more
then you add a scope mount thats another $100
and a scope another $100
a bent bolt handle thats another $100

so you see how the little add ons can add up
