The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Very nice. Was it a local show? Yep. Well an hour and a half from me. So in the collectors world still 'local'. My pals laugh at me for waiting in line a half hour early at the door to be one of the first ones into the show. I get the last laugh this time as this time it paid off. Lots of times I'v...

Wow look at all these new folks! Welcome. It's a shame this post doesnt go newest first. I then we could see the new people when we open the thread. For you guys new to buying mosins, you are going to read about them costing 69 bucks not so long ago.....turns out its true!! They are catching up to e...

I know its a hex and 'uncommon' but just how uncommon are they that $663+$35 is the going rate for a 6 on the rarity rating for mosin variations?? I got out at $400 when I realized I was out of my league. But I had no idea how out I was!!

Way to go Joe!

I think the star is interesting though. While a Tula mark its stamped smack dab on the top of your Izhevsk.

Like many of you, after receiving a new book in the mail, I have drug out some wartime rifles to see if some more of their stories could be dragged out. It seems as though, the more questions answered the more puzzles come to light. This one made more than one repair depot trip. I am seeing 41 CABV...

and looked at closely with a perhaps jaundiced eye. I'll get to work drinking the carrot juice ASAP!! :wink: Hmm a Jaundiced eye has carrot juice in it? OK I guess I can go along with that! :lol: :lol: :lol: Bill Google says about jaundice..... :geek: Jaundice is a yellow color of the skin, mucus m...

$280 all in. Hard to find the more common refurbs for that price around here. I was at a gun show today and they were selling the classic's in a box sight unseen for $259. Some of the dealers had refurbs for $300-450. The one for $450 was a '32 that was drilled for a scope rail. I saw about 10 unspo...

Oh great! Another new buyer to compete with!! :angry4: Just kidding! Welcome. Post some :cam2.gif: 's of your mosins....we likey pics! And either stop collecting mosins now or start looking for a bigger house!! :pointdown: Thats what we call in my house Russian Wainscotting! :chuckles: hallway.jpg

Didn't have an ExDragoon representative from this arsenal so i got this one today. Its all matching with a 3/4 inch counterbore. Nice bore at that. 24tula (1).jpg 24tula (2).jpg 24tula (3).jpg 24tula (4).jpg 24tula (5).jpg 24tula (6).jpg 24tula (7).jpg 24tula (12).jpg 24tula (9).jpg 24tula (10).jpg ...

Observing the longstanding right to protest when an injustice has been done! 'Merica!!

Looks like an all around 'Instrutie'.....Made by those being 'instructed' on how to make rifles for those 'instructed' how to shoot them! Real beauty!!

I have been trying to hunt down a copy of Serbian & Yugoslav Mausers by Branko Bogdanovic, it's been out of print since mid-2000. Original price was $14.99, current prices start at $150. (I don't want it that bad) Bought the Serbian and Yugoslavia Mauser book today at gun show.soft cover great ...

Ah now to see what they replace it with!!

PM sent

Who after seeing that could say a firearm cant be beautiful!!

Not sure if this is the definitive answer or not but on one of the popular reference sites they use the same photo for the M27 and M28 but none of the other mosins. Im thinking that that equally hard to find hand guard is the only other model that has the same hand guard but I could be wrong.... :oo...

But the price has doubled or in some cases a lot more in a short time. I don't know about you but my pay has not came close to doubling in that time frame so it's more like hyper inflation. That wont change regardless of who is in office. Never has never will. Foundationally this country has a syst...
