[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 1892129, member: 13284"] Go with the M39 and purchase your bent bolt body here (don't have him alter the original bolt): [url]http://www.mosinnagant.net/boltman/boltman.html[/url] The Wanenmacher show is coming up in a few months and I'd be tempted to wait and pick something up that you can inspect in person. There's normally several Finns to choose from at fair prices. I found the '42 VKT in the photo below there last year and ended up picking it up from the same seller at an OKC RK Show a few weeks later. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i181.photobucket.com_albums_x97_mach_won_Slings049E.jpg[/IMG] For $500 you could also get yourself into a PU sniper if you don't mind having a scoped rifle. My only other suggestion would be a Lee Enfield No 4 MK II which has an excellent bolt system and sights, but you would most likely need to reload for it as all of the affordable .303 surplus ammo has pretty much dried up.
