In this day and age, when finding a good hunting knife for under one hundred dollars ($100) is a bargain, it is the rare prospect to find a good rifle for the same price. Granted, a rifle for under two hundred dollars may not be the best but the one we want to talk with you about is pretty darn astonishing!
Let’s be honest, some of us have to be a little more thrifty than others when it comes to survival. There is nothing wrong with that. We cannot tell you how often we have made trips to the dollar store to pick up supplies.
Truthfully, if we had it in us to drop five hundred dollars on a good solid weapon we would do it without recrimination. But, right now, we have rent to pay, families to provide for, and while we are prepping we are also forced to be economical with the way we do it.
So, finding that awesome one hundred dollar rifle is a blessing!
After the break, go over to the next page and read up on a firearm that, while it may not be the best according to some, it still is pretty amazing and should not to be dismissed!

Lol have fun finding one worth buying for 100 bucks
Walmart has cricket for $99
But invest in a hand me down rifle i got my son a 10/22 ruger. It will last him his whole life. And he can pass it down to his son or daughter
Ruger 10/22
Just got my son one its his first rifle.
I got them a Marlin bolt action. 22. Nice little squirrel gun.
I’d take a pump action mossberg with buckshot anytime over what you just said.
Someone’s behind the times, milsurplus rifles running 300+ these days and you wonder why it’s better off to buy new.
Your Mind.
More like $350-$400
must not have looked them up in a while they are like 350 now
Buying a rifle is half the expense- the other half is feeding it. To become proficient with a gun – you should run several hundred rounds of ammo through it. 7.62 x 54 is still pretty cheap and you can stock pile it much cheaper than other commercial calibers. This gun is a tough rifle and virtually indestructible- if you are starting out and on a budget-a good way to go.
Love both of mine! Fun to shoot!
I’m old…My 3 M-1 carbines were $15.00 each fro m CAP. My M-1 Rifle was $114.00, CAP. My 03 Springfield was $60.00, NOS. My four .45s were a total of $75.00 & including lots of Ammo, magazines, holsters, cleaning equipment, a target slide and lots of parts and other extras. My British. 303s were $10.00 each (4 of them) 303 jungle carbine was $35.00. Five Mausers were $12.00, as was my P-17. Nambu $10.00. Two M-1917 .45 Colt revolvers were 10.00….For both….All bought with paper route $$$ smile in High School and under 18. ….But then money was backed by silver, $1.00 bought 40 scoops of icecream on 20 cones and full-size Mars candy bars were a nickel each or 6 for a quarter …My first new car at age 27 was $2400.00.
Cheap yeah I got one!….usually $200…or so though…
Ammo in my part of the country is easy to find….
My mosin takes 7.62x54R…..
Me too! W/scope!
Reload your own…..even very difficult rounds,( mosin ammo is not hard to find) can be found to reload….although reloading isnt for everyone…
…And?
I own one. Not endorsing M-N for that specific reason. Any 30-30 or 30-06 is a better choice.
In this photo I’m carrying a 1983 side by side 30-30 / 12 gauge. Short, easy to carry and ammo available everywhere!
Me with my 1883 Belgian side-by-side, 30-30 / 12 gauge. Ammo available everywhere!
This article is incorrect. There was only one site in the last 6months that had them at this price, but they sold out of their last stock like 2months ago.
Awww wish mine came with a scope
BS… closer to $250…
So who did you copy the article from? They haven’t been $100 for a few years.
Marlin is nice gun
Matt Monti
Not all but most will never shoot straight and reliable at 100 yards…
Any corner store that has four boxes of ammo has 22’s, 12 gauge, 30/30 and 30/06. 30/30 is probably the most common big bore in the U. S. Not the best big bore, perhaps, but the most common.
Been over a decade that these have been under $100. $250 is a reasonable price for a working one now.
Fake article, i wouldnt let my go for less than 700.00 and it has the original perfect condition stock,custom stock, scope,hard case.the gun alone i wouldnt let go for less than 550.
I’ve got one and I love it!
If you can find one.
I have one of these guns and I had several of them they’re reliable as long as you clean them and the ammo is Affordable just stock up
I bought a Mauser Argentino 1891 the other day for 150. I was a little worried about finding the 7.65×53 rounds, but it turns out that you can order them cheap from several places.
I agree with buying a more modern caliber/rifle combination. If your just wanting to build up a bunch of old military rifles that’s one thing. But if you just want a rifle for shooting, hunting, security, then spend just a few dollars more and get *any* new (or used, the Mosin is certainly used) modern rifle in (pick your favorite) 30/30, 30.06, 308, 270, 243, just to name a few and you can buy good ammo “everywhere”
No … Just No… It is a fun gun. But a real rifle, Get Training, Practice Training, Wear out real rifle, Replace with upgraded rifle.
More like 50 … You speaks truth though
Maybe back in the 90s u could buy a mosin for under a $100,matter of fact I got my first for 48dollars but now there 200 to 300 dollars
Five years ago you could get the Chinese version of the Mosin Nagant (shorter barrel carbine) for $100. But a hex receiver mosin nagant is currently going for about $600.
Old article. They aren’t that cheap anymore. I love iron sights. Great for teaching.
I bought an Enfield 303 for $ 100 bucks about 20 years ago .
How old is this post?
Id much rather have my 30/30 marlin in my hands over a mosin any day. Shorter, faster action as well as what you stated about ammo.
Lol. Good luck finding a Mosin Nagat for 100 bucks.
Try to find one under 100.00…
I wouldn’t carry one of those things. Ammo would be bell to find if everything went to crap. I’ll take one of my ars. Either in 5.56, or 308. Probably one of each actually, lol
I hear that 7.62-39 is cheap ammo.
