Here are the pics of the rifle I picked up this morning. Had to pay more than for 1943 or 1944 Izhevsk, $950 plus tax, but the rifle was worth it: matching receiver with original matching bolt and buttplate.; floor plate has been replaced and new serial number was stamped next to old scratched number.
Sometimes I not "Mr. Obvious" so I dare ask...what was the extra 150.00 for?
I have a restored 1942 ex PU sniper that I believe the serial number is AA2211 or something near that. I will have to take a look. I know another board member has another 42 ex PU sniper that is only 10 off from mine.

'42 Izhevsk!

Dang, how long would it take me to drive there from Calif? Very nice!
A 42..........sweet. Looks like you got yourself another nice one Lenscrafter. Thats one beautiful looking rifle.

Extra $ was for year of production, same rule of paying extra applies to any collectible firearm either it is a Luger or MN 91/30, IMHO.

Do they have any more 1942's?...:)
I saw two more today: in exactly the same condition, but I could not afford another 1942 because there was a 1947 PU available and that one was more expensive than 1942...
And yet another PU...

I'll call monday morning if a couple of guys here don't beat me to it...;)

What is good for out-of-state collectors is that, while you cannot hold in your hands rifles you are buying, you are not required to pay tax...

Fired off an Email to them about it; will see what happens....:D

Just checked the rifle, same prefix as your's except my serial number is 3221. I was way off.
And yet another PU Izvesk 1942 from R-guns...

Well, Roger says he only has 1943's & 44's left...Too bad, I would have bought one...:(
Yes, I stopped by meyself too and they were gone. But there were some excellent all matching Izhevsk 1944s.
So how many do they have left?

I did not ask, but anybody can call Roger and ask this question, not sure if he would answer...
Just curious. When I was there I notice serial numbers in the 400's on some of them. I have been told and heard 200 or so...I wont call, I asked him that question before...company secret. He did tell me the address of the warehouse in Kiev where he bought them at. Go figure. :)
