Hey, so I I've got what I think is a decent deal coming through shortly and I just wanted to double check with some other folks who may know more about long arms than I do (well, not may, but just plain do).
Anyway, it's the 91/30 full length rifle for $115 + ta. As far as I know it's in good condition and was a surplus rifle that made its way over to the States from Russia. It's the rifle only. I'm wondering if it's a decent deal or if I'm paying too much. I don't feel like I am, but I didn't research it so much as the opportunity fell into my lap.
The second set of questions I have are about accessories. I want to know the availability for a scope, the original (or replica) bayonets, a sling, and stock mounted ammo pouches that are at least replica of originals (if that exists). I'm hoping to keep it close to the WWII roots of the rifle, with the possible exception of changing out the bolt for the sniper style curved bolt if necessary (I haven't seen it, so I don't know if it has the curved bolt or not already).
Anyway, what are prices on those accessories, from folks who know? Is it a decent deal? And any info I should know about the 91/30s that may be out of the ordinary?
Thanks a bunch.
