matt6669 71 Posted February 4, 2011 Well it has finally arrived home after all the snafu's with UPS and the snow and then me not being able to get there since the FFL was only open until 4 but it's finally home and I couldn't be happier. I was worried about buying this gun the way I did, because I was afraid I would end up with a beat up piece of trash. I got the complete opposite. This thing is immaculate. It has the nicest bore I've ever seen on a rifle, and the bolt is ohhh so smooth and the trigger ohh so crisp. I hope to get out and shoot it at the 100 yard range on Saturday so if I do, I'll post targets. Here's the two quick pics I snapped before running out the door.

petros600 12 Posted February 4, 2011 Very nice Matt, one of the most accurate Mosin ever made. If someone else one the market i highly recommend to get one from Dennis at http://www.empirearms.com/rifles.htm He hand pick the rifles himself and most important he ships them on a hard case so nothing breaks Enjoy the rifle Matt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
matt6669 71 Posted February 4, 2011 It cost me $525 dollars to get it bought and shipped to NJ and another $37 dollars for my Nics and Transfer. To say im beyond thrilled would be an understatement. Considering these guns are selling in the 900 dollar range, I think I did good. Now for the shoot test. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
