The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

I don't have a P-38 but they sure are nice guns; maybe the best handgun of WWII. I have one Russian capture Luger that has been refinished by the Soviets and all Nazi markings removed. It's probably a Mauser manufacture because of the S42 on the toggle, but the year of manufacture has been removed. ...

The reason to supress a7,62x54R is in the history. The snipers and partisans used it. Here in germany there a lot of people who are not pleased to hear gunfire from a range. The use of a supressor helps to keep them calm. I learned something from your post. As I said, I know little about the sniper...

I admit I don't know anything about this device, but I assume you are loading 7.62x54r trying to achieve subsonic loads for same. As far as your "exact" load data, I think it is a crapshoot and probably experimental at best. Can't believe anyone would try to suppress the 7.62x54r because i...

Apparently, the few quakes we have in the Northeast US are felt over a wide area. I'm not sure the reason or the geology behind this. Thankfully, most are not destructive, but there was one some years ago that did damage to the Washington Monument in D.C.

Found one! Good luck; you'll need it.

I am not an expert on Finn Mosin Nagants, but I would like to see the rest of the rifle.

Thanks for keeping the fires burning and maintaining this forum!

I do not own a 1903 Springfield, so not in a position to provide first hand advice. However, I have a friend and former coworker who owns several 03 and 03A3 rifles who advises you can buy higher front sights for this condition. You might look at Numrich Gunparts Corporation. https://www.gunpartscor...

Fine looking original trapdoor!

Nice pair of fine old revolvers. Thanks for sharing the photos!

That's a beauty of a revolver. I love the old S&W guns. Some of the earlier ones from the 50's may have been on the older I-frame which was also a frame they used for .32 caliber guns. Later guns from the 60's and 70's were on the newer J-frame like the S&W Model 31 in .32 S&W Long you s...

Yeah; looks like a M44 barrel to me.

I'm certainly no expert on Finn rifles, but I would take it to the range and shoot it before making any assumptions. These are combat rifles; not target rifles.

I bought this key chain from an EBay seller in Ukraine. It's so nice, I think I'll buy one for my brother.

Oxford is a nice town. One of the better cities in the state.

Welcome from Mississippi! You will find a lot of great information here on the RMNF forum,

I would sell it on EBay if you are sure what specific rifle it will fit. That's looks like a quality stock.

I am pretty sure that is target ammo from Russian State Factory at Yuryusan (Tscheljabinks Region), Russia, Looks like 1984 vintage.

I have a bunch of Yugoslav heavy ball brass-cased 7.62x54r ammo. The stuff looks brand new, but none of it is reloadable due to berdan priming.

R.I.P. Gaston Glock; 12-27-2023. He was 94. Say what you will about his ugly handguns, he changed the handgun industry forever. He'll be remembered along with other firearms greats like Samuel Colt, Bill Ruger, Johnathan Moses Browning; just to name a few. Every time I have picked up a Glock, it jus...
