| Before they get too much more expensive, look into picking up a Swiss K-31. Supplied are (reportedly) drying up... -J-

| Mosin Nagant of some sort. Dirt cheap and fun. I love my M44. Enfield. I have a US made Enfield No.4 MkI Lend Lease rifle. It was made by Savage Arms for the Brits before we officially entered WWII. I paid a little over $200 for it and it is in great shape. The No.4 MkI also features a modern style flip peep sight (like an M1A or AR), not the old notch and post style. That was a selling point for me as I love peep sights. Yugo SKSes are C&R Swiss K31. COOL gun, expensive ammo. Straight pull bolt (just pull back and push forward) and an excellent trigger. I hear they are one of the most accurate WWII C&R guns too. It is Swiss made afterall. Once you get reloadable brass, I hear it takes standard .308 bullets.

| For an Investment Rifle: Savage Enfield - US made K98 Mauser with Nazi Markings Yugo Mauser K31 Finish Mosin M39 Finns are the most collectable mosins. Some of the russian's are collectable but not all. 1891's are hard to find M38's Some M44'a and M91/30 are collecatble gut it depends on markings and condition. Even if they are not an investment Mosin's are Great rifles and everyone should have a Dozen or so. lol M1 Garands are very collectable and around $500 from CMP. M1 carbines are also very collecatable for about the same. Both of these will only go up in price.

Since you didn't say just military, you could look into some of the old Mossburg 22's. Like the military trainers and such. They are going up in price, especially if they have all their original equipment. Plus they tend to be sweet shooters. I have a 46b. It's very sweet. Then you wouldn't have to worry about round availabilaty/prices. just a suggetion. | |

7.5 swiss ammo is $0.50 a round. They are the most accurate Military bolt gun ever issued (or so I've heard) Cheapest to shoot, Mosin-Nagant 7.62x54r $55 for 300rds. Mosin's run from $69-$89 + shipping and transfer Finnish Mosin's will run $250 +
