Milsurps / Prohib PU Mosin

I bought a refurbed ‘43 pu mosin for 2k. The scope serial number a large b number, so probably made in 44. Mag plate force matched, otherwise all matching. Is this overpriced in todays market?

I checked with g4c and their last pu were sold for 2500 and 2700. I did try to look far and wide from retailers but couldnt find any available except for private sellers.

There are a couple gun stores in Ontario that get them semi regularly and usually the price is 1000-1200 but they sell within a couple hours. Just have fun with it fella.

Much like fishing and shooting spots, the good things are held close to the chest. Put in the work and you'll find them.

At 1200, its probably normal or ex sniper mosin fitted with repro scope honestly. Ive seen a bunch of them at that price range but didnt buy. But honestly i get it, it scratches the itch.

Nope, numbers matching examples, all legit. I spent some time looking at a couple to make sure of exactly that. I've seen some repros for 800-1k tho

Im calling caps. I asked you what stores it were and you couldnt say. Nobody i knew seen a sub 1500 pu since 2022. Also its rare af right now, there are probably less than 5 listed across whole internet.

It's all about checking the right stores and doing it regularly. I'm sure as shit not about to name the place I get decently priced milsurps and other stuff for the sake of internet points.

Have fun with your gun.
