Hi, I have an addiction... A Gunbroker addiction...

[Cool_Moo5e]

I have a bad case of looking at Gunbroker for guns I already own but wanting older versions of said guns so to fulfill the itch without spending another $350ish on another but older Mosin or SKS let's talk about it, what's your gun broker go to gun when it's up for a price you are happy to pay?

for me I already have a '53 and a '42 Mosin but see a 1915 with a sporter stock on it and I am so tempted to bid on it but...

Oh look an Enfield No4 MK1 rifle from the same seller...

Funny you should post this. 5 minutes ago I bid on a Ruger Blackhawk 41 magnum. I already have 1 with a 4 5/8" barrel but this one is 6 1/2". LOL!

Made. It remains to be seen if the new Marlin under Ruger will roll them out again. I am guessing that they will, eventually.

Yeah Made. Forgot Ruger bought them out.

I buy US Krag, and Sported No 4 British Enfield/Martini parts guns off gunbroker.
Too many of them all the too often.
Sometimes type 99 Jap rifles.
Sometimes 1903's when I run low on parts.

I want an Arisaka T99 to add to my collection as well

old classics, especially Winchester levers and model 70's, but I got cured. I got schnooked the last couple time. Pictures don't lie but they don't tell the whole story. What seems like a good deal even on mint guns turns sore when you add in tax, shipping, 3% CC fee on some then 1% GB fee, gotta do the math and sometimes walk away. Lately there's a lot of reports of sellers getting their screen name and feedback hacked, someone using the seller's ID and GB not doing anything about it.

yeah I always do the math and if you don't have a C&R or its too new you gotta add your FFL of choices fee to that over all cost.

it doesn't help when the guns ive bought have 2x-3x in value. I keep whispering to myself "better than the stock market"

if you're willing to make a drive to rockville, my buddies got one on consignment. Missing the mum but great bore/rifling and blueing.

Levers, probably, but not sure what will happen to the semi autos.

They would just be cutting into their sales of 10/22s.

I want all of the original markings which drives up value a little

Buying a sporterized Mosin is like buying a dog from a puppy mill. Maybe worse because, at least, the dog isn’t defaced. We should discourage this practice; once military rifles are castrated, they can’t be returned to intended config!
