Mosin Nagant Supply

[D ReedSniper]

Is it just me, or do Nagants (M91/30, M44, M38, Type 53 etc.) seem to be getting scarce again?

 

[MrHank]

Check out Bradis Guns, they usually have them.

 

[The Bubba Effect]

I have seen as many 91/30's in the past two months as I have in any two months. I don't know about the others.

 

[Shootin'IN]

No they are not getting scarce again there are more buyers out there buying them up. So the price is starting to go up as a result of this new found interest. There are places out there that still have some in stock it just takes a little more looking.
Back when I bought my first Mosin a Polish M44 I had my choice at only $60, today I have seen them going for as high as $325 for a good one.
Just do a search for "Mosin Nagant rifles for sale" & you will get a load of places selling these fine rifles.

They are getting thinner at shows I'll say that much. I use to see 20+ at any given show. Last show I counted 5 total, in all variations. Does that mean they are drying up, who knows. I see them all over online.

 

[D ReedSniper]

Of course they are online, easy to find that. I prefer to hand select in person. Last Kokomo gunshow, I did NOT see a single one. I'm used to that place being loaded with them. Even my local stores (Bull'seye, Down by the tracks etc.) don't even have one, that I seen.
I'm also used to buying mosins at $80-$110 (91/30). I';m mainly curious as to where they are going. But, damn this new found "interest"...

Even some of the big guys, like Aim Surplus, are out right now. Is this the end of the line? I don't think so, probably just a lull while the next batch is on a boat. Seems like there was a dry spell a couple or 3 years ago then overnight they were everywhere again.

We have about sixty 91/30s in-house right now. They have been getting harder to find at the wholesale level (fewer distributors have them in-stock), and the ones we have received recently haven't been quite as nice as previous batches we've gotten this year. BUT prices haven't gone up appreciably, and there have even been some carbines available again (Type 53s, essentially a Chinese M44; rough, but relatively inexpensive).

What does the future hold for the Mosin-Nagant supply chain? You can never tell in the world of surplus, but buy sooner rather than later, because there WILL eventually be an end. Until, of course, the Russians decide they need some more cash and "find" another warehouse full of guns...

 

[chibicascade]

what are the Prices on 91/30s right now?

I was a Midwest Guns in South Bend about a week ago. They had a few cases stacked up. they were 129 and change. I paid 80 last year when they were on sale. The normal then was 99.

 

[Raskolnikov]

I know for a fact that Bradis has them for around $129--some for a few more, some for a little less +/- $20. I had hoped to find a good deal on one at the Indy 1500 last month. The only one I found was $800 (not sure why). Maybe I didn't look hard enough.

You didn't look hard enough!
We sold a case of them at the last 1500! $115 out the door price!

I will be sure to keep everything in mind. A wall of Russian

 

[Miller Tyme]

Was at Bradis a couple of weeks ago and they had several odd-ball MN's in there rack, ( all @ around $120.00 OTD) including a 1943 low wall reciever 91/30 and a 1926 Tula PM stamped. Anytime I am up around Indy I make it a point to stop by an check out there Mosin's, I am never disappointed.

 

[Hexa-Tula]

21st Century Firearms has about 45 in stock or so.

some moron tried to sell me a m44 for 250 while a dealer had one on his table for 150

 

[newdumdum9825]

Even though the Russians made about 20 million of them, eventually they will begin to dry out. Make take a couple of more years, but it will happen eventually.
