    Russian Collection

    These are all shooters.

    M91/30, M44, M38, SKS, SVT-40

    What else am I missing to add to the shooter grade rifle collection?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    If you can own them I'd say M1895 Nagant, Tokorov, Makarov,and the big daddy's an AK47 variant and a Dragunov or if that's too pricey a PSL. That's all I can think of right now....

    Yes - there are a few that are Prohibited in Canadaicon including the AK or variant, except for a Valmet which is priced in the $5k range. Ouch.

    CODFan: A 91/30 PU sniper is a great addition to a shooting collection. Not too expensive and, based on my own, very well set up during post-war refurb.

    +1 on the PU sniper. All of mine are also post war refurbs and are excellent shooters with the right ammo.

    From my best shooter...
