The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

stares forlornly at the ammo... wipes tear from eye.... I need a moment...

Do what I did: Learn to sleep with one eye open. At least I can see her come at me from the left in the middle of the night.

I guess I'm the lone blasphemer in here. I have a 1943 Izhmash ex sniper that's my daily shooter. I love that rifle a lot because the furniture is in such good condition. Yes, I guess I can almost classify myself a collector as I'm up to 3 (3-4 of the same rifles is usually just considering hoarding...

my groupings aren't quite as tight, but I went with the Mojo's. But I'm still getting used to them. I love em!

ok, if I had to guess, I'm going to go with: Something that would look better in my ammo box?

I have to chuckle a little bit. I went out to one of the Rod & Gun's and got a little range time in. Most of the other shooters were out there with anything from a .17, to my MN. I started off with my .22 pistol, cranked out a couple boxes of ammo, nobody batted an eye. Fine, got that all packed...

When I was in the military, many moons ago, I was taught that the plastic rifle was far superior to anything out there. 30 some odd years later I can say with a clear conscious that I'll take a Mosin or an AK any day. I believe someone else made this comment earlier: "They're simple, like me&qu...

Those Finns are dangerous as hell, just ask the Russians and Germans. So I'm a bad guy and I think instead of knocking off the store down the street I can get a gift card cash whatever. Why the hell would I do that? Nothing left to rob the next person with. I've seen the piles of junk they get. But...

The shots heard round the world... But at the risk of sounding serious, wouldn't that register on the richter scale

And I was going to with the smartass reply: His name: Vlad Age: 29-ish Hobbies: Target shooting, marching in formation when not at war, defending the motherland from the Nazi's and drinking Likes: Long moonlight walks along the Volga, smoking and really good vodka Dislikes: Skinny women, laughing Wh...

Well, as promised, here's the picture after the first clean up.

Excuse the messy desk.

:worthless: You will get no further help from us....cookies and punch are in the back. Buckeye, I had to give your post some special thought, as my side still aches a little from the belly laugh I got last night. Yes, it is my fault for getting busted. I must be losing my 'ninja-like' skills now th...

Just remember, 1/2 of every Mosin you sneak in to the house is hers. On the bright side, you get 1/2 of of her shoes and purses. Well, sad fact #1: All of her purses clash with my Harley shirts. #2: Assuming I could shoe horn my feet into her shoes, I'm sure every damn one of them would make my ank...

The local Dunhams was running a special on 91/30's and I noticed a number of laminated stocks in the case, so I asked the kid to show me each and every one. Well, as I mentioned the blushing bride has rather vocal about no more stays showing up. Well, she was upstairs in her spare room, working on h...

There is no way I'd have a dozen wives....no way. Or even two. So rifles. :lol: ok I just got a visual of my wife with 11 identical twins. That's another 5k I can throw away on more therapy. Driving anywhere would be a nightmare, even if we were the only car on the road. I have to stop thinking of ...

I am told that a Meth addiction would be easier to quit than a milsurp one :lol: That is a very astute observation, sir. In the past few years, I've acquired bits and pieces for various weapons, as well as discovered an unknown love for these old rifles. After the last two, the wife told me that if...

Have had both, and quite frankly, I stick with my AK. It's a Saiga x39, which I believe is a civilian version of an AK-104 (or 105, can't remember). Shortly after I got it, I wasn't happy with the extra trigger linkage they used to "de-mil" the thing, so like everybody else I moved the FCG...

One of the few times I will ever toss a personal opinion out, like this, but I simply cannot wait until the first jackass is evicted. 873 days, 20,953 hours 1,257,234 minutes or 75,434,050 seconds... But who's counting?

Kristie, First of all welcome to the board, the place is extremely informative and a lot of fun. Like you, I thought I was going to have only one, now I have two and I'm looking at a third. I got my first one in mid February. Secondly, enjoy it, it's an amazing piece of history, AND the ammo's cheap.
