It wouldn't be a milsurp if it didn't have grease dripping out of someplace.

:D Thanks, ROB :D
I knew you were going to be an "honest" poster on this thread.
Now we have to find out how much you are addicted by you answering these 3 questions to yourself or even here:
1. Do you have the urge to touch and/or move the action of your Mosins , before you go to bed or after you wake up?
2. If yes, do you sniff at your hands after you have put them back in the safe?
3. If yes, do you wash your hands or go to work sniffing at them once in a while, until there is no more smell?

If you can answer these with a triple "Yes", you are "really" addicted and you might want to talk to a Mosin Phshrink, if it gets any worse; if you have only 2 "Yes", you may have a chance to reach old age with a small collection of refurbs in your estate that nobody knows s..t about. So whatever, you gotta make your decision now.......
.......very sinister thought!

:chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles: :chuckles: :big shock:

With only one "Yes", what are you doing here? :roll:

I think you may have a problem if you just know that you may never stop buying them. :D

New total is 8. Just added 2 more to the family. These 2 are my best Russian 91/30s yet. A 1935/50 Tula Hex double date and A 1928 Tula ex dragoon Hex with a sweet ex sniper stock. I'll be posting pics and some range report videos later today of both of them.

The worst part about a thread like thisis that by the time you count them, there is another one (or two) on the way. :D :D

I've rescued 5 from pawnshops, 2-44 carbines Izzies, '42 cobbled Tula with PU scope, '43 Izhevsk refurb. Cant remember what the MO marked one was. I gave that one to a young man who is trying to raise a family in hard times and has a facination for Mosins.
