    Finn model 39 Mosin...

    Now, I have to admit I do not own an SKS, any of the Mosins or other milsurps other than Brits or Canadianicon....BUT...I have been weakening. If I could find one in as new condition with a .308 bore I might cave in....any ideas? Dave

    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.

    I have a Sako and a B barrel M39 and really like them. They are well made and look good. But I can't seem to shoot them as well as some people do.

    I bought mine back when they were $150 to $200 US, now I see them anywhere from $200 to $500. At least the ammo is still cheap.

    I think you will have a hard time finding one with a .308 bore. I know they are out there but the smallest ones I have see so far are .310.

    I have a 1943 Sk-y, and it shoots as straight as I can hold it. The ammo is so cheap I never considered re-loading and it too has a bore of .310. A small trade off for the performance, HTH. SDH

    Your best bet at finding one with a .308 bore is to look for a nice M28 or M28/30, but be advised they are rarer so you will compete with collectors and the price will be higher as a result.
