Any tips on common faults from these used rifles I should look for when looking?

If the bore is shiny and/or free of pitting, and the front sight is straight, it's probably a winner.

just make sure the bore is ok and the action is smooth and you should be fine.

The shop I'm going to buy it from only has 91/30s which is the one I want. The shop is also selling packs of 20 rounds for $5. I get a free box of ammo when I buy!

I gotta say, the b.a.d. lever is pretty sweet
