Very nice, some of that is much more that what you paid for. Got yourself one heck of a deal.

Had a chance to purchase some bolt action Russian service rifles for WWII. $99 each, but I thought why would I want a piece of shit from the USSR. Then found out they were quite reliable.

Those would be Mosin-Nagants. They showed up back during the Clinton-era ban in the millions, along with the SKS rifles They're surprisingly strong and accurate, and are chambered for 7.62x54.

I have and M38 or M44 Mosin carbine in my gun safe, can't remember which. It can do 3" groups at 100 yards with the iron sights. The things were made so simple that even a peasant woman could snatch one up on the battlefield and pick off Nazis. They have the worst safety mechanism of any rifle I've ever seen, though. You have to be as strong as a ham-fisted Russian peasant woman to pull the safety knob back and engage it.
