The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

In 2010 I was in Tuscan working one evening and when leaving town was surrounded by anti AZ SB 1070 protesters on Congress street in front of the court house. Everyone surrounded the car waving signs that said "We Won't Comply" I did not feel threatened and actually was laughing a little....

Nice revolvers. I had to break out the Smith and Wesson book to see the difference between a model 30 and a model 31 after seeing the S@W you posted up. :thumbsup: (S@W model 31 had a long production run, that one was made up until 1993) After seeing this post and breaking out the Smith and Wesson ...

Stupid question follower spring isn't backwards is it? Not entirely, I've done this and have seen a surplus import assembled with it in backwards, leading me to believe, anyone can make this mistake putting one back together (not just me) (Don't sand or file anything on your rifle and don't force a...

Move over 1911 and PPK, that is the most beautiful automatic pistol I have ever seen

He is trying to figure out where to put the hay. What the Russian brought back for his girlfriend was a looted toilet seat. My grandfather was with the 750th Railway Transportation Battalion and was with one the first group of American's to enter Berlin, when the Russians were busy going house to h...

Beautiful rifle, It's really difficult to fit these long, long rifles into a single frame. Beautiful firearm.

For all members in the Valley of the Sun The Commemorative Air Force will conduct a historic warbird flyover of the Phoenix/West and East Valley metro area the morning of Friday, May 8 to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of Victory in Europe (the end of World War II) and salute the enduring spirit ...

A quick note: Terence W. Lupin, in his 'The Mosin-Nagant Rifle' book, cautions that the stock bolt is not meant to be removed, and damage to the stock is possible if the bolt is removed. Best practice is to leave them assembled as much as possible. This opinion is based on advice from old timers no...

The rifle has a beautiful piece of walnut on it, the wood looks great.

That's great, now if yall can get the idiots that keeping coming up with these rules gone, California can be a great place again......... Unfortunately this was an initiative, the people of California, that is at least 63% of the voters brought this on themselves. Initiatives are often poorly writt...

Anyone know if any B52's ever shot down or forced any attacking MIG's to break off an attack over South East Asia? Here's some interesting reading on the Mig Killer B-52s. https://www.google.com/amp/s/theaviationgeekclub.com/heres-b-52-tail-gunners-made-buff-mig-killer/amp Good read thanks for post...

I had never heard of Santa Fe rifle conversions until I saw your post, thanks for mentioning, always something new to learn.

Rifle matches, wood finish is original. 1946 BSA No 5 rifle that I paid around $350.00 (too much) for back in 2005 Shoots straight and works good though is looking a little on the rough side. I had not seen one for sale in a long time when I ran across it so this one did come home with me. IMG_0073...

Yes folks, I think it is a good time to start the annual dear Santa list again, and so that I can get better prepared, I am applying again for a C&R license which I let expire some time ago. My list could go on for awhile, but I really want: 1. Swiss K31 (Really good choice) 2. Swiss K11 (I'll s...
