I haven't found any milsurps I just have to have so it slowed down for me.
lots of options out there. unfortunately,they are all overpriced until we get a new batch in. consumer priced milsurps may long be gone. thats another thread...

I've whittled down my collection to the milsurps I really want to keep. Now if I can just close the deal with the dilatory owner of a Luxembourg FN-49...

I'll try and remember to post pics of a new-to-me Swiss K-31 once I get it set up with a scope.

Yup that's my stance, I cannot justify spending $300 on a mosin and the only mosin I want right now is a m44 or t53. The other part of milsups is the ammo have really gotten out of control, why would I spend $25 for 20 rounds when I can get the same in 223/556 for $7.

When the price more than doubled on most milsurps, I sold every one of them except for the ones I really wanted to keep in my collection. I haven't been to a gunshow in years that had a good selection of milsurps if there were any at all.
When the firearms themselves and the ammo to feed them reached the price level of modern day rifles/pistols I lost interest.

Unfortunately I've also been hit with the downsizing bug so there hasn't been much for me to post as of late. I've added a couple black rifles including an A2 HBAR and something that's been on my wish list for a long while. It's close enough to a military service rifle that I'll post it here.

I was fortunate enough to receive some 7n6 in trade along with some new Russian Izhmash mags today. This is a huge upgrade over my previous AK platform rifle which was a WASR 10/63.
