The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Hello everyone! I know this may be in the wrong section but, I know theres a good many knowledgable people here. Heres a pic of one of the Classic Arms Chinese SKS's. Strange thing is there is no triangle 26 mark anywhere on this gun. The serial number has 2 letters in its beginning and 1 letter is ...

I absolutely agree with martin08 on this one. You have something very, very, special there. What a story that one would have to tell. Maybe even for the showcase? A+++ find there!

Nice find. I think you did fine on the price. Its funny where these crop up at times. I found one at a garage sale and one at a hillbilly flea market.

Thanks for the compliments guys, It's my favorite for the time being. Not a bad trade for an afternoons worth of work. : )

Here it is... Looks like all original. All numbers are matching.

Cant seem to get my pic to upload But yes JYD, it is the same as the 98 mauser in the video. Rollercoaster sight and all. And no, the guys little brother took the bayonet and pointy helmet, RATS!!! Thanks for the reply. I suppose this was done well after its military career.

Hey guys, how 'yall been? I got one this weekend from an old friend while helping clear out grammas attic. It's a Gew 98 long rifle marked Amberg 1906. What got me stumped is the bolt handle is turned down some. Not as much as my kar98k, but turned down. Family story goes this along with the bayonet...

Good evening guys! I've seen some of this "match grade" brass case ammo for sale lately and was wondering if anyone had the lowdown on this stuff. Was it made for the SVD and PU rifles? Seems to be about twice the money for this ammo.

Yeah, saw a Romanian WASR in 5.45 with an asking of 1295 and it was gone when I made my way back around to the door. Dunhams had those junky things less than a year ago at 449 on sale. Shoulda bought a few then. Could have sold or traded a few for the K98 sniper he had 2700 on. S-42 code rifle with ...

This whole ban thing and the govt' is starting to get me really worried. I heard so many rumors and heresay at the show its disturbing. What in the world is everyones plan when worse comes to worse??? Am I alone in the thought that the yo-ho's on the coasts make the rules that us "hillbillies&q...

Went to a local gun show this morning in search of ammo if the price wasn't too bad. I was SHOCKED to see what they are gouging people for. Worst I saw was 250rds of cheapie wolf 762x39 for $200! 300rd spam cans of the Russian 54r on strippers for $139/can. Holy smokes fellas, I sincerely hope this ...

Yes, indeed. They sure have gotten alot of my money recently.

Hi guys, thanks for your replies. I took this thing all apart and theres no filled holes. Even under a magnifying glass. Maybe you, JYD, could help, whats the rarity factor on this rifle? Sorry i don't havea pic. Rifle is at my work and I'm snowed in at the farm. 2 days now, ugh. Also, are there ins...

Got this 39 Tula refurb with the cn marking but shows no evidence of being drilled, inside or out. I'm curious what kind of scope would have been on this had it been scoped, a PE or PU? Thanks!

Have a chance at a rifle that appears legit. 43 Izhevsk with 44 dated scope. But the Aztec import stamp is throwing me off. Guy wants 750 so he's definitely up there on the price. Also heard about some secret file of real PU attributes??? Really don't want a fake. Thanks

Heres a couple of pics, shes a real beauty, near mint bore, very, very nice. Sorry the pics aren't that great, the camera is awful. http://i1247.photobucket.com/albums/gg626/trkmnymkr/tula32PMmarkedRexwithcone003.jpg http://i1247.photobucket.com/albums/gg626/trkmnymkr/tula32PMmarkedRexwithcone002.jpg

Picked up a 32 Tula hex laminated this morning and it has PM stamped on the barrel shank. Was curious what that stood for???

Today I found a 1939 Tula Refurb with the C N marking. Strange thing is that it has no filled holes or evidence of a scope ever being there. This is the forth rifle dated 39 from Tula that I've seen lately with this same phenomenon. I'm curious if anyone else have Tula ex's with no holes??? :vconfus...

I have been collecting since I was 8. My father gave me a Remington model 12 and a 1924 Mosin Dragoon. I still have both to this day. He bought the Mosin in the 50's for $11!!! The Remington cost him $30. I'd buy all I could find at that price. I'm 35 now and no signs of stopping.

What are the guys from R-guns like to deal with? I know they're pretty close to me.
