Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Welcome guys. We love pictures. We love pictures of everything Mosin rifles. No such thing as a common one. They all have a story and the look of your special ones.

Hello My name is Eric though you will know me as armed hiker.
I started being interested in surplus guns with a 1943 M44 I picked up in 2008. Friends were talking them up and I was in a shop where they had a rack of them. I just looked them over and grabbed the one that felt right. I did not know what I bought until I got home and started researching the Mosin. That's when the fun began.
Hi all Got two Mosin Nagants 91/30's. Nothing collectable just a 1931 and 1938 Izzys.
The 31 has a laminated stock and the 38 is a regular rearsenal stock.
Nothing special, except the 38 I can get 2" groups at 100 yards with stock sights.
The 31, well thats another story. I am in the process of shiming the reciever to get tighter groups than 7" at 100 yards.
I probally will be here watching all these beauties that you guys are collecting, and reading all the tech stuff that you guys do to make um shoot better.
Thanks for letting me be here

Hi all, I recently purchased my first 91/30, it turned out to be a 1941 Tula, I've been on here doing research on the rifle and all it's markings. I'll post pictures shortly.
to the forum 41_Tula, I hope you're not joking about the 41 Tula thats a pretty hard year to find. There's collectors on here that would give a leff knut for that rifle. Please post up some pics over in the main mosin section when you get a chance. Congrats

That is a very good score fairly rare year and very collectable, can you start a new post over in the collectible mosin nagant section? Some of the more seasoned collectors can give you a better rundown on it.
