Heads up for all you Mosin Nagant guys, Northeast has a polish sniper that looks all original with no import marks. Think they have a Swiss sniper as well!

there was also a Lungeman (forgive spelling) there as well.
Yea, I picked up the madsen in that first batch. Think they have all come from the same person. Did you see the the M1A they had behind the counter?
I have it on good authority that the M1A has a low round count and is a great shooter.
All mentioned are overpriced and will sit there for a long time unless someone green comes in off the street and has to have one. I'm not bashing North East Trading and have bought guns there before with great service, but as a milsurp collector I can get any one of these guns mentioned for cheaper (and thats including the Mosin sniper) even with a want list mention from a certain C&R site that sends out new stuff emails.
Makes me really kick myself in the ass ala boot with string and pullies for not buying the Ljungman from Richie's in Westport for $600 and change, especially when he told me he found the box with matching bayonet, sling, and a few hundred rounds of ammo after some guy bought it.
I hate re-living that story. I'm gonna go hug priceless rifles I got for practically free just to feel better now.
Edit note: Heres Samco's add on the M41B sniper rifle with scope. Its safe to mention Samco here because they now refuse to ship anything to Mass.

I had ordered an M59 SKS from Samco last fall and after waiting the usually 4 weeks, called them and asked if the order had been shipped, for a tracking number, etc. and was told they were refunding me my money because they no longer shipped C&R rifles to Mass because of advice given to them from Lew Horton who is one of their distributors. I told them Lew Horton doesn't sell anything to C&R folks anywhere and they were the last people they should listen to on legalities and C&R shipping.
Samco will now only ship to 01 FFL holders in Mass.

The Romak-3 is NOT a Dragunov!
The Dragunov is not, as many think, simply a rechambered, longer AK. It is a different design. Easy ways to differentiate these rifles include the AK style upper and lower handguards on the Romak, and the magazine location (the Romak has the mag right up against the trigger guard like the AK, the Dragunov has a large gap between the trigger guard and the magazine.
Nice rifle? Yes. Dragunov? No!
And qualified, objective advice I'm sure it was....
I never heard of any Polish Mosin sniper rifles. Poland converted a bunch of ex Dragoon rifles to shoot 8mm and made a bunch of M44s. Is there an 11 in an oval stamped anywhere on the receiver? I know some people mistake ex Dragoon rifle receiver stampings for Polish.
As for the Swiss, does it look like the one at the bottom of this page?
