quote:The milsurp market supply has all but dried up, so prices have exploded, especially over the last 5-10 years. 12 years ago I could buy a crate of 10 Mosins for right at $1,000. Today those things sell for $400-$500 apiece. The previously steady flow of crates of surplus rifles is now a small trickle.
But man, 900$ . They must be making a fortune off those things. They can’t be paying more than 200$ for them. I think I gave 200$ for my 8mm still in grease.
And because of the Hughes Amendment, the milsurp market for rifles is basically forever limited to those used through about the 1960s (Garands, SKSs, etc.), as pretty much everything adopted and manufactured after that point is select fire.

I remember in the 90s an SKS was less than $100

I recommend anybody thinking about getting one go through the CMP. It's a great organization and IMO worth the little extra headache involved for the first one.
