It's an EX sniper... leave it as it is..

Went to the range today, 600 yds raining and a westerly breeze blowing, not bad results at that distance with 91/30 & Rem 1903A3... https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-rptSzh4li-I/T6LJ79F2yvI/AAAAAAAAIYI/dxfb0Z6kzEw/s835/DSCF4584.JPG https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-CxXX0grEeRQ/T6LJ6y_9heI/AAAA...

They are nice, well worth the wait, welcome to the UK branch of the M44 flame thrower club

Glad you got to look over it.

Looks good, and I would say nobody has sanded the wood recently seeing the wear and tear to the wood, (scratches) makes it look interesting..

When do you get to take it to the range. (got your cert back yet?)

Hi shoto2758.

"I think I just squirted myself..looking at those pic's"

Thank you, on reading that it gave me a good laugh.. No one has ever said that before about any of my pictures.

Hi svdsniper. The Dutch guy is only the man for .303 .311dia FMJ bullets. I dont have a main dealer/s for my stuff I look for who has the best selection at a good price. I'm happy using once fired then I re F/L size. Your rifle with be shipped via TNT so it can take a week to arrive, has to be on a ...

Hi svdsniper.

I will be at the Phoenix on the Saturday hunting for reloading items, already ordered 54r --7.5x55--303 bullets to collect on the day. Brass and Powder also on the list...

Hi svdsniper.. Ah South Coast, I'm in the South East not far from London... When I got my first M/N with the German proofs I did some research and found mid 1990's a former state of Russia started selling Mosins to German dealers. These rifles were then proofed (European Law in some Countries) and s...

Welcome to the forum from another Brit, Nice looking rifle.. I have looked at the pictures, and I see West German proof marks 2xstamps one looks like a shield with 3KK (meaning March 1999) German proof. I have 2 M/N's with similar marks. (Mellrichstadt Proof House) these marks are above the UK proof...

Any milsurp ammo, they will work with most ammo without fault...

Nice rifle by the way

Hi JYD.
Thats just for the 1903 Mk1 rifle, we are not allowed big semi auto stuff Seems alot of weight to ask one man to carry..




Ps I'd rather have a Bren .303

Is that a .30 Semi Auto conversion, why does it weigh so much, 14lbs ?
One for sale over here Mk I dated 3-20 for £1300 ouch

Hi pacanis.

Nice rifle, & shooting, looks like you had good weather..

For your first Tula you did good,

Thanks Sgt. Rob

My search continues.

I also have a true M38 stock maybe I should start collecting..

pacanis & martin08.


The rifle never mind the wood is not for sale..

A Question or three if I may: Since getting the A3 I have looked at many pictures, done some reading up on them. I have noticed that almost all have 2 cross bolts through the wood under the receiver, at each end, where as mine just has 2 thin metal pins. Why? Were the cross bolts a refurb addition.?...

Thanks Martin08,

Wife not happy with heavy recoil rifles, very happy with .223 AR or bolt action rifles.

She can always use any of mine

Thanks everyone, I have to thank my good lady wife for taking the pictures, (her camera )

Martin can you point out where exactly you need a picture of the front of the spring slot for me please, or should I remove the spring and take a picture.
