Hi all, new on here, as I thought this could be the only place I can think of selling my Mosin.
I bought it on a whim, but then got into airsoft, and couldn't get rid of it. So! Few questions
1) Is it ok to sell Deactivated weapons here ( I've got the full certification)
2) What about posting the buggers? Costly I'm sure, but its the sort of thing Royal Mail and the like would love to go mad over, so what's the situation there?
EDIT :
3) Anyone fancy telling me how much is a decent price for a 1943 stamped Model 1938 Carbine ( i think) with sling? Does where it's built matter? It still cocks and fires off the action, but obviously, nothing can enter the chamber. Rather nice condition I think it's in too.

Not sure what you mean by here, do you mean on this forum? If so then a few ppl have allready, just put it in the for sale section, but I might be wrong on that as im not a mod.

As for sending De-acts in the post, When I sold A few of mine I just put them in an apropiate sized box, padded it, and made sure the box was very well pakaged. You dont nead to make any declarations but It might not hurt to put somthing like this parcel contains a legally deactivated firearm, just to avoid an early morning call by the police.

Agreed, about
