The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Ah man I hate to hear that. My condolences to his friends and family. We'll keep all y'all in our thoughts and prayers.

Restoring a sporter with "as issued" parts to what it should be I've never had a problem with, and consider it saving them. I used to scrounge pawn shops for rifles with "sporter" stocks because they could be had so cheap. As the parts supplies have dried up it just isn't economi...

Also another weird thing is I can't seem to find an image of this stock variant with a screw that doesn't exist in any images I have found... https://www.gregsitservices.com/ajs/images/guns/mosin-nagant-2.jpg Again thanks for any help, TRI0N I have an 1945 Izhevsk M44 that's been refurbished and it...

I have an M27 I bought off a co-worker years ago that the stock had been cut down and sporterized. Thankfully the rest of the rifle hadn't been messed with. I'd say it took me a good 4 or 5 years to find the stock and hardware for it. A few years ago I ended up finding another M27 stock set with har...

Very nice. They're a very comfortable gun in hand I agree.

You did a wonderful job on that one. I'm sure that rifle could go for $800 to $1k in today's market. Thanks! It was a lucky find for that price. Russian captures are bringing 700 to 800 bucks now. I'd dare say that one would bring close to 2 grand now. I'm amazed at how much Milsurps have appreciat...

Totally off topic but I picked up this svw45 K98k Mauser with the original sling on it at a local pawn shop a few years ago. They had it marked as a Yugoslavian Mauser for $350.00. I immediately offered $350 out the door and they took it. One of my luckiest finds ever.

I only have one. My Grandpa brought one back from WW2, but we were robbed in the late 80's and it was stolen. I picked one up just because he had one. No idea what his was as at the time. I was a teenager with other things on my mind. Mine's a Spreewerk from 1944.

That's awesome getting to put your Grandfather's grips on a proper USGI 1911!!! I'd say if you could find some old pictures of his putting them under the grips would do it justice!

WD-40 won't harm the finish. Either that or soak it in Kroil.

Very nice!

It is what it is. For a true 9x18 recoil experience one should shoot a Polish P-64. The muzzle flip on those are a hoot...

Took an outdoors picture yesterday evening of my CMP Field Grade I posted above. For the money I think it's hard to beat the CMP for a genuine USGI rifle or pistol.

Pulled a few out of the safe today for a USA vs Nazi Germany picture, and I thought y'all might like it.

So far in the last year I've fixed a Troybilt 8hp tiller, a 42in John Deere riding mower and a 8hp B&S engine. It's on a Wlnco 4000 watt generator. As long as people are too lazy or dumb to use 100% gas I won't run out of stuff to tinker on. I don't make any money on this but it's fun to me. I ...

Very nice! Pawn shop local to me has a couple of these they have sat on forever. I'd thought about picking one of them up, but I got back into guitars and that vanished from my memory until now. One of these days I'll go by and see if they still have them. The last time I paid attention to them (whi...

I received my Round 4 CMP Field Grade today. It's a Colt frame with a Remington Rand slide. I haven't pulled it apart yet, but I'd bet it has a correct barrel in it too. Barrel looks great too with strong lands and grooves. Finish looks Du-Lite to me, and it definitely isn't parkerized. I'm real hap...

Nice looking GI group pictures!

I don't know if this is allowed for discussion here. If not please guide me to where I can ask this question or move to the appropriate location as I can find no help anywhere We have a 91/30 in the family that has extreme sentimental value and was damaged by, let's just say, an irresponsible perso...

Being lazy cost him 80 bucks and saved you hundreds!!! That's a great score, and a damn great price too!!!
