The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

That’sa quick way to turn a 800.00 rifle into a 200.00 rifle and I can’t imagine how you can get all that off it without a massive undertaking. Definitely work on the wood and metal separately and careful with the wood. A new stock is highly unlikely to be found without luck and a bag of cash

That sounds like a full pot of coffee effort to get it back up and running. Glad it’s ok Darryl

That’s real cool Erik. The equipment looks brand new. Did you buy a kit?

I don’t have my serial number handy but I’ll never forget the pride I had in buying my antique receiver M39. Kari Prager found it in his local honey hole gun shop in California. The shop owner let him take it home at which point he disassembled it and took meticulous photos. He sent me about a hundr...

That was a great find at a very fair price. Shooting these fine old rifles is on a whole different level. Up there perhaps with a nice Swiss K31 or perhaps the fine Mausers made by the Swedes. Thanks for sharing it. Your pictures are excellent

My first Mosin was a Izhevsk from 1943. Typical rough wartime receiver metal but solid and all matching. Can you believe I bought it for 59.95 back in the day. under 125.00 with a can of Bulgarian heavy ball ammo including shipping. Those were the days. The refurbished rifles are really an amazing t...

Holy thread resurrection Batman! I like it though. Looking back through old posts can net you a wealth of good information and great pictures

Absolutely beautiful to me!

Wow it’s amazing that in the past 120 plus years this rifle has survived the chopping block and sand paper. You found a gem that you may never see another like it in the wild, ever! Thanks for posting it here

Very nice and a lot of nice clear pictures is always a good post. Those are all outstanding

That looks like a excellent find right there. Beautiful to say the least and from the looks of your 50 yard target might even hang with the Swedish rifles. Congrats

That sounds like a wise decision. I too think it looks like it was put there during its time in the Finnish arsenals

I’d like to know if this fine carbine was ever bought. I can’t imagine letting a 91/59 that nice and that price slip by. No way

That looks like 2 great Rifle to own Cliff. I would enjoy both of them on the firing line. Congrats

Awe man I was just gonna say that! Yeah the rear barrel band screw. not really I’d never see that in the picture

Erik you sure can. Any of the Ruger birdshead frame grips will fit

I finally found the Ruger Wrangler birdshead to add to my rimfire fun. It goes well with the other 2 Wranglers and with the short barrel and curved grip frame it really handles well. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220603/d115930a07908c7367a1d3e96b66a53b.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220...

If anyone is interested in a great deal on a Mark IV upper then look at Volquartsen website under cleara...

I have not tried them but considered buying the mold. They would probably be ok but if not could always use the in the 7.62x39 guns

This is one of the most incredible rifles I’ve seen. Very excellent!
