What to look for in Finnish Mosin Nagants

Post by Teleoceras »

I wanted to put this in the informative videos section, but it is locked.



I know I likely missed a few things, but I hope it is helpful for those who are looking into getting a Finnish Mosin.

I saw this waiting in my subscription list but with the holidays and the weather I haven't had much time for youtube. I will have a look later, more snow cleanup to do. I hear you guys out on the Island got slammed good by this storm..
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.

Yeah, I got about 8" but we got more farther east. It is nothing like the amounts you got upstate.

I got about 3 inches in all and most melted today after a temperature in the 40's. This AM it was 2 on the one thermometer and about -4 on the other one. When it gets that cold I could care about a degree or two. By the way I still think Winter sucks!!!!!!! Bill :x

Teleoceras have you been gone? I was wondering about you the other day when watching some of your videos at the range.

I wouldn't say we got slammed. We knew it was coming. Wasn't all THAT bad.Worst part is the jackass drivers in their SUV's who think they are invincible. They are the ones who get peeled off the lightpoles and put into a bodybag. Good riddance! You "people" suck!

Uh, what was the question?

A real life crisis with my Dad's health had me preoccupied these past months. Thankfully he is doing better, but being 94, I have to be extra vigilant since he developed a heart arrhythmia.
