The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

I meant where you got the SKS 7.62X39 gauge you said you were waiting for. You said you shot it so I thought you had gotten it. I have checked head space and test fired two rounds to check out the gas operating (blow back) system, ejects empty brass, reloads another round and fires again. Going to ...

Excellent M38 collection

It is my favorite Mosin, I like the feel of a carbine

Good day at the range,happy,happy,happy. Got the new front post just where i want it, going to add a litter paint to it, not sure red or some other day glow color. No one else at the range, so as i was getting ready to leave, thought i would try a few shots at my new 8" Gong, had to jury rig i...

Hey Jim, the next trip to the Range should be "rounds on target" no change, fire for effect :thumbsup: Here is my M38 with a Smith Sight and it ready helps using the Red sight post :!: :shifty: :whistle: Yes I know, it's counter bored and it shoots very accurate too :!: :vcool:

Going to the range today or tomorrow , replaced the front sight post with a smaller ball type i got from Midwest, will see how it does. Will post results. We live about 15 miles to the west of Brunswick, The sub base is about 30-40 miles down 95 from us. We know it well because one of our favorite ...

Had a chance to shoot her yet ? Jim ( A fellow Georgia Boy, but really a Dam Yankee ) :chuckles: I have not shot the SKS yet, will do soon. Your not to far from Kings Bay Navy Sub Base ?

I heard you like to collect Guns

I wonder where that came from

Good Morning

I purchased the SKS from a private party.....

Thanks for the cleaning tips

I did clean the rear housing, recoil spring assembly, trigger and bolt, yes the firing pin moves freely

thughes wrote:Pull the bolt and make sure the firing pin is loose and rattling back and forth. The channel for the pin can get gunked up easily and turn the SKS into a slam-firing machine gun.

Congrats, have fun! (and bring lots of ammo)

Thanks Will Do

Hello everyone, I receiver my first SKS last week and this is my first regular posting. I got lucky as my SKS was pretty much free of cosmoline. I did however detail clean the bore, receiver and bolt assy. All the serial numbers are the same, I guess that's a good thing ? It has not been fired by me...
