Mosin revolvers

Thanks for info. How hard is it to get a license ? Pretty easy. There's a couple forms to fill out, you mail one copy of the application to the ATF and gthe other to the local police chief. Cost is $30 and I got mine in 3 weeks. In addition to being able to mail order C&R firearms, you qualify ...

What dealer consistantly has the nicest 91/30?

I've never ordered from Aim Surplus, But they have good prices and I've never seen a negative review. (however shipping and transfer can get pricey) Other than that, I'd just learn up on them and find a good deal localy. EDIT: round reciver rifle (sold out)$80 (they will be back soon) hand pick (re...

creeping wood

Had this issue with my rifle. It had the milled springs that didn't seem to hold the band well. The rear band does most of the holding of the handgaurd. What i did was make sure the band was fully seated behind the spring and then give the spring a light tap on the other side where the pin was to pu...

Yeah, I'm not going to go after the really collectible stuff. I just figure one of each major variety would suffice. I might stop after the m38 and just leave it at two rifles and two carbines.

Nothing special, but it is my first. Believe it or not it has been tough to locate one in my area that someone didn't want $300 for. I had to get my C&R license and buy one off the net. '44 Ishevsk. Been counterbored, but the bore is like a mirror with good rifling still present. At least I know...

Help A Non-feeding M44

Mine does. I have purposly loaded them with rims behind the round below and it will hold it down far enough. I've never had a rim lock problem ever. I don't think this is the original posters problem. A good pic of where the round jams would greatly help. He did provide pics of the rifle, but a pic ...

speaking of which, my 91/30 ex-dragoon (1929), occationlly the first round will not feed. intead the front of the round will dive, and the bolt won't move forward. In which case, I just unload the mag, and reload it again and it works fine. Is that normal? EDIT: Is there a specific way to load the ...

I must be cursed... Problem with me 2nd nagant

So does the rounds rim hang up on the reciever wall when trying to load? How about a photo of where the round is getting stuck? A picture is worth a thousands words. Snap caps are smaller than live roubds, so they may not catch in the same spot. Do you have spent casings to use? Try not to use live ...

The rim is locking on the round below it. Usually loading the rim in front of the round below will "fix" this, but the problem is connected to the interrupter. Check for wear on the end. As the tip wears, the round below feeds up higher and locks the rim of the top round. A friends '33 he...

Look for wear in the sear protrusion that contacts the bolt as well as the small flat of the cocking knob that contacts the sear.

Also, remove the barrel and reciever from stock and make sure the sear screw is tight and not backing out

Help A Non-feeding M44

Sounds like an ejector/interruptor issue. When you lock the bolt forward, the rear of the bolt presses the ejector in, which in turn presses the interruptor in allowing the rounds to feed up. So this is where he need to look. Could be a matter of cleaning out cosmoline. Here's a couple vids on how t...

If you press in the ejector by hand, does the interrupter located below in the magazine move outward to allow the next round to feed up?

Smith & Wesson MP15 sport

I've got one. I just wanted a cheap AR-15 to have fun with and the M&P15 sport fits the bill nicely. It got me in the door as an entry level rifle and taught me about AR-15 basics. Now my next rifle, I'll build myself. I've got mosins too, but this is just fun to shoot. http://www.youtube.com/wa...
