Somebody paid twice the going rate of a R Guns PU for a Molot that sold for $500 a couple of months ago? Well for ****'s sake.

A fool and their money are soon parted.
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C. S. Lewis

I didn't pay a lot of attention to the bolt but the floor plate is renumbered for sure. :big shock:

Yup, some prices out there make me a bit sick when i think that I'll never be able to afford the ones I've been wanting. It might go down a bit but i don't think its ever going to be like it was last year even. :b sad:

I was impressed with the 1959 refurb on the scope. I hope it's still available when my Income Tax $$$$ arrives.............NOT
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

Just a quick glance, but that is a Molot serial number on the receiver, and a Molot box and packaging.......................
