    I bought Mosin Nagants for $39 back in the early '90s, and even found a Westinghouse M91 at a show and paid $50 for it. I also bought a few milled NIB and full of grease Norinco SKS rifles for $125.00, complete with chest rigs and tool pouches. I can remember pallets of steel core Chinese 7.62x39 being wheeled out on the floor of the shows for $80 per 1440 round case too. If I only had a time machine.

I am quite proud of my German collection so far, especially the pistols (my Holy Grails are my G43 and Kriegsmarine Mauser 1934 pistol (which I have a short video on)). Great video.

    I'll start off by saying that this is the USA. If you want to be a pattern collector and own a dozen of each type of rifle that's your right. But I do want to say something else. If any kind of military surplus rifle comes into a LGS near me, I have to get in my car and drive like mad to get it before it's sold (the staff know me). I'm not talking anything remotely as rare as a Rasheed. Even a '98 Mauser, M1 Garand, '03 Springfield, the list goes on. I cannot find them locally. I do believe that the extent to which some people are pattern collectors is preventing current and maybe future generations from being able to enjoy some of these surplus rifles. I've seen comments before from people saying today's generations don't appreciate the classic rifles and all they want is the latest. I think that's not the whole truth. I think for a lot of folks they can't find these classic firearms or when they do they are so expensive that they cannot afford to purchase those firearms.

    +Military Arms Channel Some of our guns, labelled as "Non-Restricted" allow us to have most (definitely not all though haha) of the freedoms that you guys have with your rifles. Fortunately the SKS, the Vz.58, the QBZ, and the M14 are all commonly available firearms that are in the non-restricted class. We can also get norinco 7.62x54R FMJ BT new production at milsurp prices. Don't get me wrong, I wish we had your laws, but if you saw the price I payed for a beautiful SKS with mostly matching numbers, you'd flip a brick. Or the prices for M14s, they've gone up to like $650, which is pretty darn high.

    I messed up a few years back with a immaculate SVT-40 for $575 I think it was. Went home and researched and they were going $1200-$1600.I could kick myself in the butt for that. Another thing was it was a war bring back with no import stamps. I did go back to get it and it was gone of course.

    SVTs are like $300 in Canada, and a good $1,200 here (if you can find one)... If I'm not mistaken, the US Gvt sold the blueprints of the M14 to the Chinese after we started using the M16 early in the war with Vietnam... I always heard the Norinco M14 was a really good rifle. I never shot one tho...
