I remember the early days on the other forum when I had one 43 Izhevsk. All of the advice was consistant and it wasn't hard to tell who knew what they were talking about. Which was everyone.

Yeah I agree with much what was said, just remember new members and old I never know what I'm talking about most of the time. :roll:

Good choice :vcool: :vcool: but i can't believe that no one told you to buy them all....that is the correct answer, then you will be closer to that 20 mark :toast: :clap: congrats

I'm trying to turn over a new leaf... The 20th Mosin came out at the end though. The leaf was heavier than I thought. :wink:

Talked to entropy & the shop in his town just got in 3 crates of 91/30's!!! Price is a bit high but I want to see a crate full of Mosins. AND he lets you dig through them.... Might be buying one if I find a keeper. That and I'll try for one of the crates. Would make a great coffee table. 8-) 8-)

You can always stack up 7.62 880 crates on each end and place a board over the top for a table until you get a crate :P :P
