I bought these rifles off of my neighbor a few years ago thinking I would eventually get around to shooting and enjoying them.
That never happened and it's not going to, so I've decided to sell them. The only problem with that is I don't have a clue what they are worth. I know a lot of INGO'ers know a lot about these models so I'm asking for your assistance in determining dollar value. I'll include the information that I think I know about each rifle. Please feel free to correct me because I seriously don't know much, if anything about these guns.
First is a M91/30 Tula:
Appears to be numbers matching except for the magazine floor plate.
No numbers on the butt plate.
Not counterbored.
Rifling visible.
Possible surface rust in bore (or cosmoline, I've read they can look similar)
Wood is ok, some small dings, chips, and scratches. Probably average?
Next is a M91/30 Izhevsk:
Numbers matching except bolt and magazine floor plate.
Counterbored.
1 1/2 inch crack in buttstock. Small dings, chips, and scratches throughout.
Possible surface rust in bore (maybe cosmoline?)
Last is what I believe to be a Turkish Mauser 8MM?:
I don't really see serial numbers on this rifle...?
Not counterbored.
Wood in decent condition, some dings.
Rifling visible.
Same "surface rust" looking bore as the Mosin's?
All three have "CAI ST ALB VT" stamped on the barrell. The M91/30's both have two boxed "SA" stamps along with various other stamps.
Let me know if further information is needed.
Thanks in advance.
