Hmmm...at that price, you're (in my opinion) better off with a Mossberg 100 ART. I picked one up for a few hundred bucks in .308 and it's relatively accurate.

Yeah, they can be pricey in comparison. There's a fairly large amount of collectors of Finnish rifles out there. But for the extra money, once you handle and fire a m39, the 91/30 seems like a real piece of junk in comparison. And you save tons of money on the ammo, 54r is still relatively cheap and available.

Hey thatGirl, it turns out you were right about the pump. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/14747805

Nice link, citing sources and everything!  I try to stay current on my snake bite info, because I work in rattle snake terrain.  Can't say I ever get used to them though, had the first one (this season)rattle at me a few days ago as I walked passed it and nearly jumped out of my skin! ;D

It's obvious that you will be a great asset to this forum, excited to have you!  :cheers:

I'll get back to you on the pissade at a later date ;)
