Soviet Mosin Nagant Rifle

Post by DS9ACU Mon Mar 21, 2011 7:04 pm

Hi, well I finally bought gun. This is my second, my first being an old Remington 511 .22. I got it for about $160, but with tax and some ammo it came out to $197. It is dated 1942 and apparently has never been used as it has been sitting in a warehouse since then. It came with a bunch of extra stuff from a cleaning kit to ammo pouches to my favorite a bayonet.

Very neat and beautiful condition! Most of the Nagents that turn up locally are usually beaten and cosmoline soaked. Very Happy

Its in great condition but there still is a load of cosmoline on it, but nothing a good cleaning can't handle.

Oliver,
The old Mosin Nagant 91/30s are good shooters. I have one and it's little brother the shorter carbine which I got from Century Arms up in Vermont. I put the P/U scope on the shorty and it was great for hunting coyotes when I lived up in the mountains. Easy Off oven cleaner works well on the cosmoline. Have fun shooting your rifle. Sgt P.
