The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

i bought one about 2 months ago, a like new referb. it has fast become one of my favored rifles to shoot and look at. about the size of a M1 carbine shooting a 8MM- 56 round WOW what not to like. these rifles are our little secret. i only paid 180 bucks for the one i have and it came with 80 rounds ...

very nice, i paid 450 for my 1944 SAKO and am happy. i have no C&R Lic so i pay retail or private party.

Yea i think the receiver maker will remain a mystery.O well no big deal. thanks

well it was not a mosin even though i did get a nice molot 1944 tula PU sniper. but my best deal is i traded installing a fuel pump in a ford expidition [ 200 bucks ] and 250 cash for a beautiful 1943 Rimington 1903A3 springfield with 160 rounds of ammo. these things are going for about 700=800 reta...

i just picked up a 1944 SAKO M-39. i was looking it over and wanted to get a idea of who made the receiver. on the bottom of the tang it is marked with a large and clear # 2 only. nothing else on the receiver is helping identify the maker or year. i looked at the tang with a magnifying glass and lik...

i was at a gun store and noticed 2 Steyr 95s their. i instantly fell in love. not much bigger than a M1 Carbine but shoots a 8mm 210 grain bullet. well i found a beauty private party. it came with 80 rounds of 1938 surplus ammo for 200 bucks. also came with end blocks. it looks un used. i already to...

just means it came from molot in russia. aim ,classic etc buys them from them.

Well, I'd move out of California...oh wait, I did that already... :thumbsup: Not asking for sympathy....not at all. But I'll be damn if I "cut and run" either. See, these idiots in this state are only in the big cities. They came from your states. 80% of them were not born here, but moved...

makes sense, no chizzle look at all, i would put it up their with my 1929 ex dragoon TULA for fine machine work. i thought about selling it after i got my AIM 1944 TULA PU but i will keep it .

i have a 1944 ishvesk ex sniper that has the most Beautiful Machine work, i am not a expert or have lots of mosins but i have never seen a war time mosin with this nice of a finish on it. the stock is nothing special but i doubt it was ever issued because the bore is like new. did they spend more ti...

my friend got his and all he could find was a cloudy rear lens. i had to remove the front lens on my PU and it was a snap. i see the rear can be a problem. if i am able to unscrew it is their 2 lenses in the rear section ?. are they glued in. from reading up it seems their is more than 1 lens in the...

last year i got one of the chinese SKSs that came from Albania, to some here it would be a jewel. early [ 1958 ] all machined parts. no rust . cleaned and fired it without a problem. :brolleyes: but it was just plain UGLY, the stock was shameful looking. dings galore. not my kind of rifle. most of t...

i picked up a never fired SKS 59/66A1 last year. i bought it PP 350 bucks. i love my Chinese SKS but side by side the YUGO is hands down a better rifle. part for part it is beefier . i do like the chinese chrome lined barrel but normal cleaning makes that a non issue. pick them both up and the chine...

anybody know why some Molots have electro pencil #s on the scope mount and some do not. my 1944 TULA has a line out # on the scope mount and the rifle # 43 stamped on it. no electro pencil.

that is a good deal to me.

do you feel lucky punk just kidding. i have never had a problem with head space in a referb mosin. not a single problem. they check it at the factory and referb.

clean her good and wipe the wood down and have fun. be sure to disassemble the bolt and clean it good. same for the receiver and chamber. a lot of folks have sticky problems form not cleaning it properly. get a spam can of .18c ammo and feel the history.

the bolt on my 1955 Romanian M-44 does not match and it is a sweet shooter. buy it.

i am mosin poor but TV rich. my wife has everything known to mankind on dish. i have no clue what our dish and internet bill is each month
A LOT i am sure.

i am down to 4 mosins AIM PU 1944 ex sniper 1934 hex TULA 1955 Romanian M-44 that covers it in my little world. sold over 10 Mosins in the last year. just sold my beautiful 1944 Laminated M-44 to get more ammo 7.62-54r and 7.62-39 a gun is no good without ammo. and it looks like CA is going to make ...
