have a mosin? post it !

[Mk VII]

M38 which I bought a few years ago - works fine with reduced load. They had two, this had the best trigger and the barrel was bearing properly on the end of the stock. Counterbored, like many overhauls.

Izhevsk one which I bought many years ago from someone at the club who had never used it much. Has a Tokarev 'scope, which someone pointed out fairly recently.

here is my IMMACULATE 91/30. i swear this thing never even saw the light of day until someone took it to the pawn shop. just bought a M44 missing the front magazine screw from a friend for $175 a month ago. no pics of it yet.

 

[Duzell]

[Mausermolt]

i havent put it on paper yet, im to scared to scratch it on the way to the range
but from what little i have shot it, i was hitting milk jugs at 150yds no problem from a rest.

BTW pardon the crappy pictures

^ i like the color of the wood, is it stock or re stained?


and who used fishing wire???

 

[Garycw]

Wow! Nice thread to see all the different character in the mosins. Lots of good ideas. Here's my stock 91/30 & m44. Have another still in box in Cosmo

 

[Duzell]

oooh, im actually trying to find a m44 for a friend, after shooting my mosin for like a month he actually wants one, but shorter so we are going to hunt for one tommorow , hope our search goes well

 

[LakeCruiser]

sksfan - I had one that the bolt wouldn't close on too. I found that the extractor was bent in too tight and hitting the bottom of the cartridge when trying to close the bolt. It came to me this way when ordered. I had a gunsmith adjust the extractor and it works good now. You might check that.

In 2003 I found a Sako M39 on a gun show table and dickered it down to $90.
I paid $35 and had the bolt handle TIG welded.
I got a quantity of gen 1 TAPCO AR15 risers for $9 each by dickering down Cheaper than Dirt on the phone.

I milled out an AR15 riser to fit the hex receiver.
I did not do a very good job. [This last week I finally figured out how to mill hex shapes in scope mounts for an 1892 Winchester].
But I put epoxy between the hex receiver and my bad milling, and the M39 shoots.

 

[SC4006]

Duzell, I refinished the wood. I used minwax Sedona red to do the job.

 

[sharpenit]

This is a 91/30 that I modified. First, I cut 10 inches off the barrel and recrowned the muzzle. This reduced the length to 38 inches, from the original 48". I also cut off the fore-end of the stock and reshaped it. I added a Brass Stacker scope mount and an NC Star scout scope. I refinished the stock. Then I got a Brass Stacker front-sight adapter to reattach the front iron sight.

@SC4006, thanks ive been thinking about redoing mine ill look into that

@clark, that is some serious commitment to your girl there, ive never seen that done before, ever thought about doing a vid on it so we can see a full view and 360 view?

@sharpenit, first other brass stacker ive seen other than my own, its really an advantage to have it in my opinion.

well so far my mosin hunt yesterday was a bust the big 5 stores all say they are out and dont know when another shipment will be in, said they sold 100 something in like a week and charged 200-600 per rifle, that is crazy, mine was only 109$ on sale, but still anything close to 600 is just crazy imo

ive made a few more mosin lovers after some shot my mosin. but seriously im going to need to look harder, we have a fair amount of mosin users here, and i want those who are new and interested in one to find one, but i haven't a clue were to look scept a few of the private gunstores i know

also side note, ive got a archangel stock on they way so ill get new picks of it up when i have time

 

[Garycw]

AIM did have some instock $119

 

[Justice06RR]

I have a M44 and a sporterized 91/30, both have very smooth actions.
These are great rifles for sure.

 

[neo297]

I have 3 a 1932 hex, 1942 sniper and a 1945 m44 all are #'s matching and the m44 has a brass stacker mount with fixed 4x32 LER scope. I have floated all the barrels and put in trigger return springs and shimmed the sears to reduce triger pull.
