This my first post seeking pricing help for Bob's collection.

Mosin Nagant: There are a bunch of these. 44s, 91s, 91/30 and 91/59. I know that a few years ago you could buy them for about $100. What are they currently selling for? Is one variation more valuable than others?

SKS: Again quite a few of these. At one time Bob said he was trying to get at least one from every factory that made them.
I understand that some are more desirable than others. Which ones?

SVT-40: I can only find a couple of prices on this one. One for $1000 and another listed at $2500. I'd rate this one as Very Good. So what's a realistic price?

Makarov pistols: About a half dozen of these so far including a FEG clone. Which are the better ones that will bring a higher price?

Thanks for any help you can give.

The SVT depends on status. By that I mean is it a refurb, usually these will have a reddish/plum colored bolt and electro penciled numbers. Also which aresenal made it can have a bearing. Lastly if it's a sniper model. A lot of them had the scope mount cuts in the receiver but unless it has the key way cut on top it never hand a scope mounted.

Here is some good info.

The SVT Section

Prices could be $700-$1,500 in my book


For the Mosin Nagants the Finnish models generally bring higher money than the rank and file Russians but there are also other countries that come into play as well as sniper model. Prices can run from $100 to potentially a couple thousands. More info at the same site.

Mosin Nagant

It's been years but I've still got a few Finns and other Mosins so if I can help you out let me know.

As far as SKS the original Russians probably bring the most followed by Russian refurbishes, Albanian, c
Chinese and Yugo in that order. Not sure what Romanians are bringing? They didn't import that many that I can recall and seems like they were never in the highest condition anyway.

The model 91s might be worth a few pennies depending on the factory and history of the particular gun. Rebarreled Finns are in demand as good shooters, but even non-refurbed guns can be attractive to the right collector. recent sales on Brokegunner are a good guide.

M44s vary in value depending on country/factory/date. 91/59s have a following. Even standard 91/30s are selling for about $175-200.

I am in the market for a Chinese SKS at the right price. Certain models of SKS fetch money, like the Egyptian refurbs with the thin wristed stocks.

I've never seen an "Egyptian" SKS? They made a Rasheed carbine but it's not an SKS variant.

They are a subvariant of the Chinese weapons. The Chinese made them under contract. Scroll down the page.

A couple thousand for a mosin? How about $14k for an SAT M91 mosin

Out of all the firearms OP listed they all could vary from $100 to thousands depending on what they are, condition, is it modified, etc
