J&G has the steyr 95 straight pull rifle for $99.95. I'm thinking about grabbing one. Do you guys think its a good deal?

good price but i think ammo is hard to get. Not sure. I may be in for 1 depending

It's a nice looking rifle and piece of history for a hundred bucks. But like BLF said surplus ammo has dried up or is expensive; newer ammo is available though....very tempting.

for a 100 bucks why not.

Be warned, ammo for it is expensive and rare, as are the enbloc clips that it needs to shoot the ammo.

Check their shipping rates 1st they can be extremely high.

I think I'm gonna grab one, why not its $100, and I see them elsewhere for way more

A few thing to know about these:

 

The ones I've seen lately were largely beat. You might be better off going to a gun show and picking through them to get a better one.

 

PPU makes the ammo currently and it's about $25 - $30 a box. Surplus ammo is floating around out there, some guys try to get crazy money for it but if you look around (at gun shows) you'll find it cheap at times. Surplus ammo should be on the enbloc clips, so if they're not in the box, someone removed them. If you can't find any surplus to get enblocs, Sarco has them for $2 or so a piece (last I checked).

 

This rifle shoots a powerful round, makes a Mosin look like a light weight.

My buddy has a case or two of this ammo sitting around. I might have to grab some.
