Pre-War rifles

[Adam Helmer]

larryours,

The Argentine bolt rifles are 7.65x53MM and are fine rifles exhibiting Old World craftsmanship. There is the M1891 line of rifles, short rifles and carbines and the far stronger action M1909 rifles, short rifles and carbines. The value of these arms depends on condition. I prefer to use the NRA grades of Excellent, Very Good and Good. Besides condition, are the factors of matching numbers of bolt, receiver and cleaning rod and any other accessories such as issue sling, bayonet and cleaning kit. It is difficult to give a price without seeing the arm. Perhaps a view of a current issue of "Shotgun News" gun magazine or "Gun List" will give you a price range.
