The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

I was pritty happy about this so I thought I would share the info. I now will be working in my hometown gun shop. I have known the owner for sometime. I asked him today if he needed any help during shows or around the shop. He said sure I could use the help. I didnt ask for money or commission, just to learn from him the business part of it. So now any spare time I have from work and hunting/family I will be working in his gun store.. This might be good for me but probably not good for my bank account... I think I see more milsurps in my future. and every MN that comes in the door. Im already wishing!

If you are going to work for free then I hope you develope some serious will power:P
Working for free with something you love sometimes sounds better than getting paid for doing what you hate doing. Most people have little choice:oops:

I'm working there for free, but I'm sure he will offer a comision he is that type of guy.. But I do work for money elswhere!! Lol even if he doesn't offer anything but to teach me the ropes I will be happy with that!!

Think you can get me a discount?

Good luck, sounds like it will be both educational and fun!

I use to hang out in a gun shop when my friend had one back in the 90's, cost me a big chunk of change, but it sure was fun

I'm gonna retire from teaching in another couple of years and I was thinking of doing the same thing. I guess offering to work for free, but asking for commission money might be a good way to go.

Or maybe just working for free for a month or two, then if things work out, asking for commissions.

Sounds like a good plan to me
