Re: Greetings

AND

:welcome2:

I remember many moons ago when I got my first 3 Mosins'.... But watch out, they're like a bag of potato chips; You find it hard to stop after just a few.

Here's my first Mosin; 1955 Romanian M44

Re: M39

I've seen that before... And it never, ever gets old! :thumbsup:

Probably the most beautiful rifle stock on a milsurp I have ever seen.

$359 was a bargain. As they say; "You didn't pay too much for it, you just bought it early". :vcool:

Re: Type 53 Value?

Hi all, Value/price question: I found a nice looking 1955 Chinese Type 53. The stock has been refinished, and I suspect the rifle may have been reblued, but it’s hard to tell. It’s listed for $350. Is this a fair price, or is this highway robbery? Any guidance helps! I wouldn't pay more than $200. ...

Re: 1943 M-44

I sold a 43 Izhevsk Trials rifle to a fellow forum member a few years back & have regretted it ever since. Unfortunately said member does not part with items once acquired. I still have one left in my collection but am unwilling to part with it.

Re: What rating is this bore?

One of the reasons I bought a lot of Mosins back in the day was to find good shooters. I had ones with near new bores all the way to sewer pipes. I found that bore condition wasn't always telling to potential accuracy. As long as it looks good enough take it out to the range give it a go, see what i...

Re: Crazy Ivan

Why should they bother? They already annexed the Crimea and it's too costly to do an outright invasion in today's world. But a threat of an invasion can be far more beneficial to them. With just the threat, everyone is fleeing Ukraine like rats on a sinking ship, no one will be investing in them for...

Re: Mosin-Nagant 91/30 - 1942 Izhevsk

Congrats!!!! :thumbsup: Never call it run-of-the-mill.... One of my favorite Mosins is my 42 Izhevsk 91/30. Has a horrible & stiff trigger that I hate; But after shooting hundreds of rounds through it I became a better shot as a result. Love that gun!!!! 1942 Izhevsk 9130 AAA1.jpg 1942 Izhevsk 9...
