The Minority Report twins tell me this isn't going to be true.

.....does she still have that light Cosmo perfume or did you have her force-sanitized?
An honest answer will do......

I have had this one for several months, and had several range sessions with her. She still sweats cosmo when she heats up.

Semper Fi, Rob

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

Just two.......so far.

AUZI, really?

Thanks, ROB
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!



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

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

i have 5 m91/30s and my newest member the m44 hungarian 1953
#1 1925 ex-dragoon hex Izhevsk
#2 1943 Izhevsk
#3 1939 tula
#4 1939 Izhevsk spoterized
#5 1939 laminate Izhevsk
So six in total and more on the way

I will be posting picks of my m44 soon

LOL What's an "Izhevsk" LOL ROFL

We must surely have enough by now for a couple of Battalions

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.

Yea, that's why I decided to wait a year or so before attempting it

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.

'drif

right now 6
1, 1929 tula
2. 1935 Izhevsk HEX
3. 1936 Izhevsk fake PU sniper
4. 1943 Izhevsk
5. 1943 Izhevsk ex sniper
6. 1955 Romanian M -44
all with good wood and the metal has no rust or pitting. only my 1935 hex Izhevsk is counter bored. i traded my 1905 Tula m-91 cuzz it was not real pretty and i new i was not going to shoot it. got the ex sniper for it no regrets.
