uh oh. You're gun people, I forgot, I need to be careful what I say!!

Seems like just the other day (a couple of weeks?) I wanted a gun to go do some can plinking. Mellon mushing. That kind of thing. And I didn't want to spend a small fortune on a rifle. Then somebody mentioned "Mosin Nagant" I saw one and really liked what I saw. I fell in love (?) with the...

looks good!!

I was hoping that was the situation!! Thanks!

yeah, and all I need to do is polish it out with a dry rag and go shoot it. oh boy oh boy.........

The app seems pretty simple and straight forward. Except for section 10. Maybe I missed something. 10.Nonimmigrant Alien Certification of Compliance With 18 U.S.C. 922(g)(5)(B). If Additional Space is Needed, Use a Separate Sheet. what is this about? Hunting license or permit number? huh? I guess I ...

Well, after my first one, an m91 is next. There is my Xmas bonus.... then tax returns... I guess I could man up and just tell (ask nicely) my wife what I'm going to do.

after a little more reading and looking things up and stuff.............. BTAF doesn't like it if I get a crate if I have a C&R right? Just a thought. $30 for that is a lot cheaper than $65 for somebody else.

okay then. I'll wait on getting a crate. I think it would be crazy but what the heck.The per gun cost is more than I will be paying for my first. I try to be patient. Lol

Most, if not all my shooting will be target shooting. But, I'm not looking for a target rifle. I'm looking for a Mosin Nagant. Although I want an M91, a 91/30 will surely be my first. Chances are too, for the more experienced and knowledgeable folks here, I will ask some annoying and maybe even frus...

I mean, I'm already trying to figure out the cost of a crate of Mosins. Tax time is around the corner.

yeah, I see the Finn rifles seem to be in demand. I won't know until it takes me, whether I clean and use orange oil only (love how it protects wood with out changing it. As from what have seen, these come with history stamped and carved in it. I couldn't take that away. I may add to it though. So s...

The only thing I know about counterbores is what I read this afternoon. Other than it is used to correct the damaged end of a rifle, all the rest were peoples opinions. As for me? The aged thing is what I like most. New rifles did not turn me on like the Mosin did. The shined up and refinished Mosin...

This seems to be a simple confusing topic. :shock: Anyway, just want to make sure I have the right idea. As for shooting the gun, it is a good thing. For collection value it is not a good thing. I got the idea of what it is. But I read one way it is the last thing I want. I read another and if I wan...

I went back to look at all of this morning. They only had one left. Wow, they sold three last night/this morning. The one left is a 1944 date. I'm trying to work on identification here. lol More will be in on Friday. The gal there this morning was the most knowledgeable yet. She even did a chamber c...

I was disappointed with the gun show. Not a single Mosin to be found. I did how ever stop by a local Big 5 and they have 4 of them. I am going back when they are less busy to look them over. Sales guy tried to give me a load of crap up front. I am glad I have done the research I have. The one gun I ...

Thanks folks!! My wife has a degenerative disc in her neck and is scared of the recoil for that reason only. Once upon a time I did a lot of shooting. And yes, even so, a safety course doesn't hurt a thing. I have been researching Mosins to a point they have invaded my dreams!! lol I saw that Big 5 ...

Hello all. I'm real new to the Mosin Nagant and so very looking forward to owning one. When I decided a while back that I wanted to start shooting again I was dumbfounded by the cost of rifles. To the point I was about to give up on any kind of larger bore rifle and just go back to a .22. Then I was...

Alrighty then!! Hello folks, my name is Jim. I am learning and researching to purchase my first Mosin Nagant. I am really looking for this. Hopefully I will get to shoulder one at a gun show this weekend. It seems looking for a Mosin is like looking for "a fish". Which one? What size? How ...
