You think it's worth the extra $30 get get a good hand picked one? I read where another member paid the extra fee for a hand picked on and got screwed.

I don't think it's ever worth selecting multiple hand pick options from Classic. I do believe in selecting one of the handpick options though. For me it's worth the $10 to potentially get a nicer piece. But my experience is selecting several options is a waste, it's either handpicked or not. Don't expect a holy grail rifle if you do select all three.

I did the numbers matching and handpick options on some SKS' and in the end, I think I would have gotten the same rifles with just one of the options selected.

Besides, if you pay $130 + shipping for a Grade B, you're better off going to a local shop and handpicking one yourself, there are Mosins a-plenty right now in local shops.

Agreed. They will all be pretty much in the same condition and I don't remember anyone getting one without matching numbers. Roll the dice at $99.

Haha! Good advice. How much can you lose for $99?

And if you think about it, $30 is nearly 1/3 of another Mosin. Your chances are probably better buying two than buying all the options. Just tell yourself you're saving money.

Someone posted a link to Dansammo M44s but the site now says under construction. Does anyone know what's going on?

If you had to pick one $10 add-on- bore, condition, or numbers- which would it be?

Bore. Stock condition will be pretty much the same and none of them will be mismatched.

Thanks. Has anyone bought from Classic? What's the shipping care like? Wrapped in newspaper and thrown in a box or good care taken?

Molots are packaged up pretty nice, have their own box separate from the shipping box with bubble wrap and shit

No idea. I ordered one from them yesterday afternoon. It seemed to go through fine, and I got the confirmation email.

when I went back today to look at something else the site was "under construction". dont know what happened.

When the guys in the Warehouse get a ticket that says HP and they are looking at 100 heavy wooden cases stacked on the floor, each containing four or five Weapons, my bet is they open the first box on the top of the pile and pull the visually best looking Weapon from that box and that is your HP.
I might spring for $10 on a Handgun just to make sure the grips are not cracked but $30 on any Weapon, Naw.

I think I'm going to pass. 14 million 91/30s made. Nothing special about them. That's $125 I can't spend on something nice.

You can't tell me what to do gramps!
