The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

It's a 43 Tula. Not worth grabbing?

I'm waiting for him to come back so I can ask. We don't have any cabelas in NY yet.

$179 right now. $129 Friday after mail in rebate. The Tula is red letter and wartime stock. I am seriously thinking of getting it.

Ugh they won't hold one for me until Friday unless I put it on layaway and then they won't give me the sale price.

Hey fellas I am at gander mountain looking at mosins. There are hex receivers, red letters, wartime stocks, and ex dragoons. I don't have any of these types. Which is most desirable? All are the same price.

That's a great looking rifle

I have had mine a little over a year and have never heard a peep from the BATF. I think with all the domestic spying (Edward Snowden and others have said there is not a single phone call or email or text in this nation that doesn't get screened) the government already knows what we have. It's a pers...

Very Cool video

I have to admit I turn more heads with a Mosin at a range than any other gun. Usually I hear comments like….. What is that? then you pull the trigger everyone stops. They are attention getters for sure. I think the most amazing thing about the Mosin Nagant family is the simplicity of the design. Yo...

This is a great time to be a buyer seeking Mosins in my opinion as prices have fallen way back. I just saw an ad for a hex lammy combo for $149 :big shock:. That's a pretty amazing deal if you ask me. T53s are available for under $120 all over the place, and chain stores are offering Mosin 91/30s fo...

The T53s are usually great shooters and have smooth bolts. Once you get past the appearance they are awesome .

When you start averaging prices by the tenth of a penny is when I say order ammo from both places at the same time, just to stimulate the economy. I'm kindof neurotic when it comes to math and numbers. <------ And cheap. I am right there with you. My cheapness is the stuff of legend :lol:

Looks great

Welcome to the forum . Sounds like you're off to a great start on your mosin collection.

My friend offered to let me take the first shot with it. I declined as I am not as confident in my work as he is

I had one recently that had a dent or burr on the edge of the chamber where the front surface of the rim of the cartridge sits. I took a long punch and glued a piece of krokus cloth to it and was able to smooth out the bad spot. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk I took my bore light over to my...

I tried another bolt from one of my rifles last night and got the same result with both the gauge and trying to chamber a round, so it's not a bolt problem. I had done the bolt disassembly and firing pin protrusion check for him initially, but tried another bolt just to be sure. I can't see anything...

Hi guys. My friend just bought a '43 Izhevsk round receiver and asked me to show him how to disassemble and clean it. It looks great and cleaned up nicely (don't they always), but when I got out my Okie headspace gauges it failed the go test. The bolt closes fine without anything in the chamber. He ...

Anything worth having is worth hoarding

A C&R would pay for itself on your first order . I know mine did.
