The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Scratch one off my list, US Springfield Model 1898 Krag as I got one and this one is off the list, the Match Target Woodsman as I've got three target 22 pistols and I pretty much need a Ultra Dot to compete and I will not Drill and Tap one of these.

Nice, a Krag is a good one to scratch off.

Ok, I will give it a try...but most are long way off
Mosin Nagant M44
Mosin Nagant M39
Mosin Nagant M28/30
Mosin Nagant Finnish anything
M1 Carbine
Swiss K31
CZ-82

Most you have there are $300 and under. Very attainable. I would try for the M39 first while they are semi cheap.

With my budget I got to find under $300 whenever possible, and I only know one place with M39's and they are much more? After the new M1 Garand gets here, I will have to recover from spending that much on one rifle.....

If youare concerned about spending that much, the M1 is the rifle toget.

Yes Sir, I agree 100% it's the one that I have always wanted and never did get.

I may of answered this but the list changes anyway.

Another Marlin 336 with iron sights as a truck gun.
Bersa 380 Plus (poor man's PPK)
SKS
Half a dozen M-Ns, of course.

In a somewhat ordered list:

1. 2 Milsurp Mauser variants
2. No.1 Mk3 Lee Enfield
3. SIG716 (does anyone have one by the way)
4. SVT-40
5. M91 Mosin (SA marked would be better)
6. M1 Garand
7. M95 Styer or M91 Carcano
8. vz58 or AK-47
9. M1A M14

This is how my ever changing list is right now. And as always this list is subject to change

Some are kinda random and vague. I've been working on the list slowly haha. I'm sure there is a bunch I'm missing. Remember I'm fairly new to firearms and collecting so I don't have a stock built up yet hehe.

Ruger gp100 4" revolver
Mauser rifle (any kind to start)
ruger blackhawk
1911 pistol. (Springfield, remington, ruger, rock island armory)
Saiga rifle 5.45x39 (and convert to ak74 specs)
Norinco ak 47
ruger sp101
ruger super blackhawk 44 magnum
CZ82 9mm makarov
Polish p64 makarov
russian or bulgarian makarov
Sks rifles (also any to start)

Scratched off the Krag major accomplishment and a fine addition to any collection

High on my list is adding an original WWII era 1911 preferably a Remington Rand like my grandfather was issued, though getting one is the same as a house payment.

Got 100 pieces of brand new Brass for it and my reloading buddy has dies, so we will be 'cooking' up some loads, probably using a cast bullet

1) M1 Garand (WWII Issued)
2) WWI Colt 1911
3) WWII Colt 1911A1
4) WWII K98 Mauser
5) SVT-40
6) AK-47
7) M14 (M1A alternate)
8) M16 (AR-15 A1 alternate)
9) 1st Generation 45 Cal. Colt SAA Revolver(1870's)
10) Early Mosin Nagant 1891 (All original)

American Eagle Luger, 45 Cal. could be an alternate to one of these.

I don't see a Turk Mauser on the list, or maybe you have one already ?

98 gewehr,
2 98 k's
Yugo 24/47
1 Turk and a buddy has one he's thinking about selling
He also has a Chilean with nice crest
and a sporterized (professionally) 98k in 22-250 with a scope damn near 18" long OMG can that thing shoot.

I just added another '93 Turk the other day, looks typical of the breed, but has the tightest headspace I have ever seen on a Mauser, so tight I got out the Go gauge to check that also. The headspace is actually perfect, and with a mismatched bolt, the bore is pretty good also so it should be a good shooter, even the crown is tight.

In no particular order:

1. Garand M1
2. SVT-38 or 40
3. Mosin M38
4. Mosin 91/59
5. Enfield No. 4 Mk I
6. Finnish M27 or 28
7. SVD Dragunov or PSL
8. SKS
9. Czech vz. 24 Mauser
10. Arisaka Type 38
11. Springfield M1903-A3
12. Gewehr 88
13. FN FAL

1. .50 BMG rifle of any make. X..I have a single shot upper for my AR
2. Non-bubba Krag
3. Chatellerault M91 Mosin
4. M14
5. Remington M91 Mosin X..I have one but could force myself to give another a home
