Mosin Nagant PU Sniper with Lee dies and PPU ammo

[ptheta]

Putting up my Mosin Nagant PU Sniper for sale as I need to thin my collection a little in anticipation of starting a family.

I had this originally from Andy Allwood and I believe it was one of several high quality but not entirely authentic ones brought in a couple of years ago of which some are still available from C&G and Fultons. They were asking £700 and £750 respectively when I checked their web sites.
Mine has the cleaning kit and rod, muzzle protector thingy (technical term), but lacks the leather sight covers and sling that these have. Mine however has the screwdriver bayonet which they don't and has matching serial numbers (not specified in advertisements) except for the bayonet. I don't know if they're meant to match or not but I've included a photo of them.

I will also include 90 rounds of PPU 7.62x54R ammunition (50 loose and 60 still boxed) and approximately 110 once fired PPU cases. There is also an unused Lee die set and case length trimmer.

Loads of pictures here:

Note that I've shown lots of the screws on the scope mount as someone has been a little brutal on one of the screw heads in the past and I don't want to mislead anyone by glossing over it.

I've owned this for alost two years. It makes its first appearance in my shooting log on 13th November 2011. Since then I have put 221 rounds through it. That was a mixture of PPU and the 1970s non-corrosive mil-surp that was doing the rounds about 18 months ago (although I cleaned it like it was corrosive regardless).

I am based in Basingstoke but get up to Bisley pretty regularly. Would much prefer a face to face deal but will take to an RFD if you want to sort all that out and pay for it. My dealer has recently ceased dealing in firearms so I don't have anyone I can easy send it through.

I'm asking £700 for the full package.

Dropping the price to £600 to see if I can move this. No offers, please. I'm not going to let it go at less than that.

If you were to put that on Gunstar/Guntrader it would be the cheapest one there. Must be worth more than that if you include the extra kit. Hang in there!

[ptheta]

Many thanks for the tip, Blighty. I shall certainly do that if it doesn't shift here.

I won't reduce it further but it would save me some hassle if I could shift it via the forum.

The PM system is broken, Christel is aware and is trying to resolve the issue.

Lucror, will PM you as soon as they get the PM system going again. Don't really want to put my phone number on line.
