Mosin-Nagant, SKS, and M1 Garand Values in 2026

Why Mosin, SKS, and Garand Prices Keep Climbing

Not long ago, a Mosin-Nagant cost under $100. Today, a plain Soviet M91/30 sells for about $300 to $500.

SKS rifles and M1 Garands have climbed too. If you’re thinking of selling or trading in one of these, old price assumptions can cost you.

Here’s how to tell what you’ve got and what it’s worth, so you don’t do that blind. We’ll also cover what else to know about these rifles before you sell.

My best friend was an avid C&R collector. He was buying Mosins and SKSs at around $75 or less for years. He told me that his goal was to have a SKS from every factory that ever made them. I'm not sure if he made it, but he had about a dozen of them. He kept excellent records and the most he ever paid was $100 for a new, still in cosmoline and factory wrap SKS.
Sadly, he passed away in 2017. I handled the sale of his collection for his wife. Even then, we got 2-3 times what he paid for them. Today they are worth even more.

These sure have gotten expensive.
Remember when dealers would get a wooden crate full of them to sell at $90-$125 per?

Crazy times.

Keep yer powder dry!

I can remember when Western Auto sold barrel loads of Westinghouse made Mosin’s for under $50. They were probably so cheap because ammo was hard to find.

The devaluation of the USD since 9/11, and the -30% in the last 6 yrs have driven all prices up.

98.6% of the folks in the US don't understand basic economics.
