Oops, didn't see you were from France

I'm just curious, is the increased price due to the lack of 91/30 rifles in the country, or are there fees involved in buying the gun?

(and when I bought my 91/30, I had 5 to choose from at $70/each

)

In France, military rifles from the US Army are relatively hard to find ( US 17, Springfield 1903, M1 )
The rest of surplus rifles are quite easy to find.
In fact were only +/- 130 000 shooters in France and thus not many people can buy rifles or pistols
