Our last "New Stuff" list (early Friday evening) was so well-
received that every item on it had been spoken-for within a few
hours. . . sorry about that! 8^)

I had intended to mention that we have added some more SWISS K31
rifles to our K31 page (at http://www.empirearms.com/K31.htm) on
Friday but had forgotten to do so. Every K31 is individually
pictured.

EXCLUSIVE!

EMPIRE ARMS has just acquired a small quantity of FINN Model 91
Mosin Nagant rifles fresh from Finland (the VERY LAST 1891 rifles
that will EVER reach these shores from Finland). These include a
dozen or so *ANTIQUE* pre-1899 rifles with Russian barrels, as well
as some with post-1898 Russian barrels (including a few made by
Remngton & Westinghouse) and some with FINN barrels made by Tikka,
VKT (Valmet) and B (Belgian, mfg. by Fabrique National).

Many of these Finn 91 rifles still retain their Finn arsenal-tags.

The condition of these Model 91 rifles is TRULY EXCEPTIONAL! Most
have UNISSUED wood being a bit dinged from contact with the barrel-
bands of ajacent rifles while palletized for transportation.

We have created a FINN 1891 page especially for them at
http://www.empirearms.com/Finn-1891.htm or
http://64.82.96.51/Finn-1891.htm and as usual will keep this page
updated in "real time", marking items SOLD as soon as they have been
spoken-for by serial-number.

We have a representative photo on our Finn-1891 web-page, but have
NOT individually photographed these as their external appearance is
so similar that one could literally not be able to tell one from the
other (except for barrel-markings).

PUBLIC NOTIFICATION of this Finn 1891 web-page will NOT be made
until Wednesday, August 16th, so those on our mailing-list (that
means YOU!) have an EXCLUSIVE chance to purchase these.

PLEASE DO NOT post the address of this web-page on any message-board
or forum until Wednesday. . . anyone who does will be BANNED from
our mailing-list.

ANOTHER EXCLUSIVE!

We are *ALSO* offering you some "shooter-grade" FINN Model 39 Mosin
Nagant rifles ONLY via this email as follows:

Wartime M39 makers (SAKO or VKT barrels), Good to Very Good
condition with little remaining bluing but VG-EX bores in sound
wartime stocks that look like they have "been there and done
that". . . $200

As above, with SKY barrels, same condition with possibly an arsenal-
repair on the wood. . . $240

We also have some EXCELLENT to UNISSUED Finn M39's that we will
individually list (with photos) on our upcoming "New Stuff" lists as
we get time to process them (it will be several weeks at least).

YET ANOTHER EXCLUSIVE!

We have acquired more 9mm FINN Model P-08 Luger pistols with 5 inch
barrels in EXCELLENT condition. These will have either checkered
walnut or checkered black-plastic grips, excellent mirror-bright
Tikka barrels and DWM-marked toggles. All are stamped with the [SA]
Finn army property-mark. SPECIAL, $950 POSTPAID

Add $50 for Luger with attached Finn arsenal-tag (only two available)

Finally, we will be CLOSED all of next week (August 21st to 28th) as
we have finally (after many years of trying) obtained tickets to the
NASCAR races in BRISTOL Tennessee (by FAR the hardest tickets in ANY
sport to acquire). This will be the ONLY true vacation that Desiree
and I will be able to enjoy all year (the other times we are CLOSED,
even though our customers view it as *FUN* are actually *WORK*
related).

Hope you find something of interest in these offerings. . . good
luck, and GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS!
