Mosin Nagant

Alarmguy1 · 01-02-2010, 02:05 PM

Just wondering how many of us have this military surplus rifle.

Just realized I spelled it wrong. Dam keyboard

Is that what you meant?

dunng · 01-02-2010, 02:16 PM

Nope, Yugo SKS for me...

JE3146 · 01-02-2010, 02:19 PM

I own 3

M38, M44 and M91/30

The M38 is my favorite. My friends have nicknamed it Boomer. Quite a sight in low light with hungarian ammo. Talk about a fireball coming out of the muzzle

Titan410 · 01-02-2010, 02:28 PM

I have two. If you are new to them you might try http://7.62x54r.net/ or http://www.surplusrifle.com

Ashcan Bill · 01-02-2010, 03:39 PM

No Mosins but several Mausers.

kydsid · 01-02-2010, 04:19 PM

Fired yes, own no. Like above nice muzzle flash and kicks like a mule.

Alarmguy1 · 01-02-2010, 04:52 PM

I just picked up a Finnish M39 VKT made in 1944. Just ordered 2 tins (880) of ammo. This gun is is in excellent to very good condition. Can't wait to go to the range and fire it.

The guy I bought it from has a 1908 Brazilian Mauser and a 1912 Chilian Mauser both 7mm. Ammo is expensive for that one.

I've got a 91/30. Sure is fun to shoot!

Ratters · 01-02-2010, 05:09 PM

Have a 91/30 and M44, as well as two SKSs, but my favorite by far is my Tokarev SVT40.

An M39 is on my wishlist.

I love the look of them

I actually just picked up a 91/30 a few weeks ago for $99. Made in 1942 and in decent condition for being 68 years old. I shot it last Wednesday and was amazed how accurate it was. I love this rifle. Ammo isnt too expensive. Most of what Ive found was Wolf, Sellier & Bellot, or surplus.

I'll get some pics tomorrow

Ratters · 01-03-2010, 02:42 AM

Remember, a lot of that ammo is corrosive. Run a patch of ammonia based cleaner, or spray some windex down the barrel pretty soon after you get home.

Alarmguy1 · 01-03-2010, 07:03 AM

Wondering if anybody bought from aimsurplus or jgsales. And if you did buy their $79.95 Mosin how was it.

BigFrank · 01-03-2010, 07:11 AM

Been trying to get my hands on one recently. Shot one a few months ago, if anyone know any stores in maryland shoot me a PM.

quantim0 · 01-03-2010, 03:23 PM

I have one. I don't have a lot of mil-surp stuff, but I like my K31 and 98/48 Mauser more then the 91/30. But you have to like the 91/30 for it's awesome crude Russian simplicity.

I order tons of stuff from AIM and they are a great company to deal with. They're my go-to for almost everything.

I've heard good things about their surplus rifles, but never ordered from them.

I've bought new rifles from them, but I have a local dealer that sells mil-surps for pretty much the same price as theirs would be after the transfer fee.

They are one of the most highly regarded sellers in the industry that I know of. They have exceptional customer service if there are any problems at all. I have never heard a single complaint about their rifles. I would buy with confidence.
