I think there was something like 5.5 million built. That's insane.
Honestly I feel like I got a hell of a steal for $700 all in. Its a damn fine rifle and I think everybody should own one.

When crates of Mosins were flowing into the US up until a few years ago you could pick them up for sub-$100. Now that the surplus rifles are gone, basic 91/30s are going for $400. And that's with 37 million of them being manufactured. With only 5.5 million Garands, many of which have been lost on the battlefield or destroyed by allies (rather than returned), we'll be looking at $2,000+ for a service grade rifle IMO.
