Mine was *supposed* to be delivered today... but... the person at Classic who typed in my FFL information got the address wrong. Apparently UPS isn't working on Friday so I get to wait till Monday...
Classic just got a batch of Mosin 91/30's for $99!

I already have a 1942 Ishvesk so I'm trying not to have duplicate dated rifles, other than that the rifle is fine. I may just end up keeping it for the time being though since I don't have any other East German marked rifles.
Spoke with Janet over at Classic today.
She requested the photos I had (same ones you saw) and seemed shocked that there was such an issue. Genuinely concerned, especially after "hand selecting" she processed me for an immediate RMA. I held her up, and offered to buy the rifle sent to me, broken stock and all, to which she gave me the "let me get back to you..."
While she checked, I looked at my pics again and found what is definitely an all matching 1942 Izhevsk DDR (Triangle 1) stamped rifle. Definitely desirable, sucks that the stock is busted...
So armed with that knowledge, when Janet called me back I offered to save her the trouble of the RMA by purchasing the broken one as they processed another rifle to replace it. SUCCESS! $70 later, Classic is sending another rifle - guaranteed all No's matching excellent quality rifle with DDR markings...FREE SHIPPING too!
Anyone have a stock laying about to get rid of? I still want a nice original copied sling... Yellowsled, what are your thoughts?
Cheers,
Doc

Someone in the classifieds had one for sale. I would not have sent the DDR back, you did well.
I'd hook you up with a stock, but I don't have any 91/30 stocks avail. Just an m44 stock.

I went to order another ONE and ordered 2 by mistake. The site kicked me out and I had to re-login. When I did I looked and the cart was empty so I went through the whole deal again. I was so focused on the site not screwing up my address again I didnt realize there were now 2 in the cart. I guess it found my original. At least my address was correct this time... I REALLY need to cut this shyt out....

Thanks guys! Found that site at work this morning while searching for info. Lots of great info.
Mine shipped this morning with a Tuesday delivery date. I honestly can't remember when I was this excited about a new firearm. Easily amused in my old age I guess. Picked up some surplus ammo from Graf & Sons so a range trip is in the near future.

I'm going to wait before ordering again. Seems like 90% of the rifles so far are 1942 and 1943 Izhevsks which is fine, just not too exciting. If I ordered again now I'd probably get the same thing. Maybe some variety will start popping up later on when they get through more of the crates.

Got mine in last night. 1939, no DDR. I paid for hand select. Matching numbers, no major dings. Handguard has some finish wear.
