The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

One of the best things you can find is a buddy that reloads. Always follow the manual but it is nice to sit next to someone while you try something the first time.

I'm going to have to get set up to post pictures as I have some nice revolvers including a S&W Model 64 4 inch heavy barrel that I was able to buy as my last service revolver. We were also permitted to buy the Glock 17's that replaced them when we moved up to Glock 22's. Until I got "Mosini...

Glad to hear that some of you guys make some great deals. as to the original subject what a nice rifle.

How about an update. Ever get your Sten running right?

Well how much was it? If you don't mind.

Glad to hear everything worked out to your satisfaction. I've dealt with Classic in the past and have always been happy with the results.

That is one nice looking shotgun.

Those bayonets are not just for looks!

Target, that is a nice looking rile. I wonder what the story is on that hex receiver?

Looking at your pictures there appears to be the typical rust and associated pitting, some dried encrusted oil/cosmolene and what I think is blood. Hard to say for sure. Interesting piece of history. If only it could speak.

It's the stock.

I won the bid so here are some pics of the rifle from my gunbroker account. Payment is going out tomorrow. Hopefully I can get it sent directly to me through my C&R and not have to deal with a dealer and his mark up. http://pics.gunbroker.com/GB/258403000/258403832/pix143344014.jpg http://pics.g...

I think your biggest issue would be in stabilizing the bullet. I'm not sure what the typical "twist" is for a 7.62x39 compared to 7.62 x 54R.

Walker enjoy. Just be careful those M/N's have been known to multiply.

Man that's a nice rifle.I just put a bid on one, no where near as nice, but I want a 98 K for my collection. I'll know by this time tomorrow.

Very nice and my favorite caliber(in a pistol)

I bought a set of Okie's for my Mosin's and could not be happier. Everything has passed so far and I feel very confident shooting after checking the headspace. I have seen a failure while on the line and it was modified mauser. Fortunately the shooter was not hurt but his rifle was ruined.

I mentioned this in another thread but OOOO steel wool saturated in gun oil will work on surface rust without taking off all the underlying blue. Keep it in an used baby food jar with a little extra oil in with it so when you use it the steel wool is soaked.

You ended up with two rifles. It's a good day

Actually My answer would be, "Just buy the Sniper and enjoy"
