Video: Small Batch M39 Rifles Straight Stocks Cracked/Rust

Speaker 1:
Hey everybody, Ben with Classic Fire Arms here. Today is Tuesday June the 20th, and today we're going to continue with our closeout of the remaining M39s that are in the building. You know we're bringing this project to a close. Every day, we have less and less M39s and certainly less of the subcategories of M39s. Last week, we were in some straight stock rifles. All of those have some cracks in the stock somewhere. Those are pretty much gone through at this point. What we have is the remainder of our straight stock M39s. These will have cracked stocks and/or some degree of rust. Some will be heavy rust, some will be lighter rust. We're selling them in three different categories to account for that. Let us tell you about the remaining straight stock rifles that we have here. Now, Dylan's running the camera. Dylan, come on in and let's take a look at these. Right here on the end, we'll start with the worst-case scenario. These are heavy rust with major cracks in the stock or, in some cases like this one, chunks missing out of the stock. Again, this is worst-case scenario. We don't want any surprises, folks, in what we have left, so we're trying to show you exactly what we have, what'll be coming to you. Again, a nice, straight stock rifle. It is a M39 with the hex receiver but you see there is a lot of rust here. Most of that rust is surface. I can rub it and it comes off on my fingers, as you see. With a scouring pad and a little bit of time, maybe re-blue, if you so desire, or spray paint or whatever, you can come back and have still a very functional rifle at a heavily discounted price. Now, the beauty of thee, folks, is even though they do have rust and they do have cracks, and we're not making any bones about it. This lower-grade, these are some butt-ugly rifles, okay? They are the worst of the worst of what we have left. But, at the price pint, you still have a very functional, very accurate M39 rifle. If you're a refinisher, so desire to put a little elbow grease into that, make some stock repairs, it should clean up. Let me show you the other. If this one was a canoe, folks, it would take on water. You see, it's got a huge crack here on the bottom with a chunk missing out of it and a little bit of rust. But again, at the price point, we think it's a deal. We have a few of those, that's our lowest end. Those are $229.99. Then we have a mid-range rifle in this straight stock category that's left. All of those, you can expect maybe a minor crack in the stock, but it will be a nonfunctioning crack. Also expect some degree of rust. The rust will be heavier than our best grade, of course, that we have left. But you can see what the camera is picking up here both on the bolt and on the action. But again, functional. That ones a little tight. It just needs to be worked a couple of times. There we go. Good, solid, functional rifles. This will be our mid-grade. Same thing here. Very functional. These are at $249.99. Our highest grade, folks. Let's take a look at this. Expect a crack in the straight stock somewhere. Expect to see some rust but very little. If you see any rust here, it's just going to be a scattering of rust. I'm seeing very little on this particular rifle. Let's look at another one. This is a beautiful rifle overall. Really good blueing. You'll see the rust on this one is isolated to the rear side where some moisture has gathered on that rear side. But overall, nice, functional, with a little elbow grease, quite nice rifle. That's our high-end ones. We'll doing those at $299.99. From the top, our best grade, straight stock, minor cracked stock or some rust, $299.99. Straight stock, minor cracked stock, heavier rust, $249.99. Our baseline rifle, you're going to see some rust, possibly major rust, maybe a heavy crack in the stock or a piece of wood missing or something of that nature, $229.99. You know, folks, in the surplus business, this is kind of how it works. When you order a large lot of surplus, the best stuff you can make some profit on, and we've done that on the front end of this project. The lower-end stuff, we have to take it too. Sometimes you take a loss on that. Hopefully, it all washes out in the end. We are taking a loss at these prices on these rifles, but we think we're compensating to make it a value for you. As I said, if you're a home project doer, woodworker, whatever the case may be, don't miss this deeply discounted price on an otherwise very nice M39.
