Re: Mosin Crate

OK.... This is how you do it. After flipping houses every few years and having to move my collection from house to house I've perfected the moving process. First, go buy some $99 10 gun locking cabinets or the $179 18 gun ones. Save the boxes they come in, cut off the bottom of the box, open & ...

Re: Why the Mosin Nagant?

Re: You can't teach idiots......

This is why I always expect the worst from other drivers. I NEVER assume they will drive properly & leave room for their inevitable screw ups. Truckers are an issue this year.... They drive a whole lot & many times I can see those Tired ones a mile away. When passing one on the interstat I a...

A 1955 Romanian M44, it may be non-matching but it looks great!! Mixmaster Romy M44's are very common & overall Romania had the least amount of M44 production of all the Satalite nations (Romania, China, Poland & Hungary). Romanian M44 Production Numbers.jpg Finding an all matching Romanian ...

Re: Any improvement?

Local Gun Shops around here are well stocked on everything. Prices are up some but not stupid up. Ammo is about what it's like all over; Spendy. But they have it in stock.

Re: 1936 Tula M91/30 First Shoot and Impressions

Good shooting... Looks like a keeper.

I'm guessing the 43 Izhevsk is a Carbine? Recoil on these old rifles doesn't bother me, but my 357 Mag revolver is telling me the ol' Arthritis is progressing nicely. :wink:
