    Mosins are out

    We called around to our normal suppliers for crates and out of stock was the norm. I noticed most onliners are out of crates also. Start the frantic just like the Mauser you guys finally bought em all. Great.

        I thought the former Soviet republics just keep finding more crates in abandoned salt mines. . . BTW anyone have any idea how many Mosins are in the US?

            I got three that were used by Vasily in Stalingrad! $10,000 for each!

            I will be sleeping good to night. Can't wait for the day when they rise up to price and mosin panic begins.

              Today is the day! Find some crates online. Most of the usuals are out. If you don't have 10 mosins your retirement is shot.

                This has happened before. Probably just a lull in between import shipments.

                I would guess several hundred thousand, possibly upwards of a million once you combine all the models.

                  I think the CEO of Mosins has about half of those at his house

                      17,000,000 made there's a million here for sure. People have been buying them for years and years at big 5. I meet people all the time who aren't shooters and have mosins in their closets.

                        I think the problem isn't how many there are left, it is how much are they going to sell them for this time around... How much would you pay for a Mosin? $120, $150, $175?

                          Nah, I'd wager there are several CGer's who have way more than I do, being a broke college student and all that

                          Depends on the model, but I've paid more than that for a M/N before, and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again for the right rifle.

                            I guess I'm glad I ordered a few this morning from classic

                            They sold out shortly after.

                              id pay up to 200 for a rare-ish imperial one. and dont the US made ones already go for more than that due to their relative scarcity?
