Are we seeing the Hays days?

I look back on all the Mil Surps that has come into this country over the last 30 years. The Swede m/96 came and were gobbled up quickly. They made about 500,000 of those. They went for under $100 at first and are now anywhere from $250-400 on gunbroker. Same with several of the Finnish Mosin Nagant.

The Swiss K-31, which is a better rifle, IMHO, is going for about the same and they made slightly over 300,000. I wonder how much they will be worth later down the road? I believe they are very good short and long-term investments. What do you think?

I think quality today equates to collectable tomorrow. The junk goes by the wayside. I don't know if the plastic gun's of today will make the grade so that leaves the way open for the old iron of today. A quality gun is always a good investment (or that's what I keep telling the wife). rolleyes.gif
