I will JHenry,
It may be Sunday Afternoon before I get a Chance.
I cleaned the barrel out today, its in pretty good shape.
Not prestine, but good rifiling all the way down.
I wont be able to buy any more Surplus Rifles for a while, as my budjet is shot for now.
I bought this one, and my wife bought a very nice 9130 for her dad.
He already opened it, and is tickled pink.
His rifle was not bought with the C&R we paid more but she bought it from Gander Mountain, it has to be the cleanest mossin I have ever seen, It practicly looks like a brand new rifle, the Barrel is perfect, and it had the full accessery kit, and it all looked new. The only thing that looked old was the sling, and even it was in good shape.
I started firearms collecting, liking the Mauser Rifes, but after shooting a Mossin, I fell in love with them.
