Off to a good start.

You bet, a good start. Look for a T44 carbine Mosin, and a WWI Lee-Enfield.

Looks like you're selecting for condition, always a wise option.

Careful, milsurps multiple like rabbits.

LOL tell me about it! You have one, them BAM a bakers dozen. Yeah I like the looks of the M44. If I can find one at my local FFL I be sure to get one and put a thread up. I would'nt mind a "full size" Lee Enfield, but I've never found one...yet.

Because Australia is upside down, so to speak. Check the globe.
