Only having owning a Lee Enfield .303 currently, I feel the urge to buy a Mosin soon for range shooting and possibly hunting. Is there a "best" model of Nagant I should particularly look for? One I should avoid even considering buying? Pic unrelated.
>>
the best one is any that has mostly matching serial numbers, a crisp bolt, and a bore in good shape that doesn't keyhole rounds

They are all the best

Finnish M39 is the pure cadillac model of all mosins.

Superb quality, accurate and smooth as hell, slightly better ergos.
>>
>>28916604
Worst 91/30
Best M39

or that fucking super crazy Finnish Sniper rifle mosin
>>
Well the best are the odd, weird sniper models that are expensive and hard to find. The best non sniper models are the Finnish M39. As for worst, that's a bit hard but I would have to say that any old M91 isn't at the point the others are at.
>>
>>28916604
Nagant is the pistol m8. Mosin Nagant is the rifle.
>>
They all suck cock

Milsurp is for faggots

Go buy a fucking Ruger American/CZ 527/CZ 550/Tikka T3/Sako A7/Winchester Model 70 etc.

t nugget owner among other things including but not limited to AR's, CZ's etc.

The best Mosin is the Finnish M39. However, it's still dogshit compared to your .303
>>
Niggas saying the m39 is the best Finn when they haven't a m28/30.
>>
>>28916943
>However, it's still dogshit compared to your .303
Nah, if anything, they're on par at best. Enjoy your expensive ammo.

>>28917003
you could throw M/27 to that list then.
The problem with the pre-M39 models is the fact that they're picky about the ammo. You pretty much need to use Finnish 7.62x53R cartridges on 27 and 28, while M39 was made to withstand looted ruskie ammo.

>mad because his rifle doesn't shoot like Mëmo Haya and Slavsilly Zaytzev told me it would in my dreams and the ammo sucks cock and guess what factory loads for it suck, and the cheap stuff ain't all that cheap anymore
>>
>>28916604
There is a Polish conversion of the Mosin called the M91/98/2x (24/25/26 depending on changed) It's about the same length as a K98k and best part:
IT'S IN 8MM MAUSER
Only made 77k of them though

thats pretty fucking good, he's using open sights and the front sight on that thing isnt exactly a thin razor. its obviously less than 2moa, if he had a scope to increase precision

I should take more eventually, that's all I got right now.

>>28917146
Bought it for 325 bucks at a local gunsmith dude two years ago. he had another one in stock, I should have bought that one too.

Haven't seen anything like it since.
>>
>>28917146
There are two typical types of Polish M44's you come across. Most are the immaculate never issued or used ones fresh out of the crate, the rest are mismatched and missing most of their finish since they were given as aid to worse off Warsaw pact countries and abused.

>a scope makes it more accurate

COD please go

>>28917160
nice man, id say you did well, worth every penny. could probably easily sell for at least double, maybe more. you cant get them in that condition
>>
>>28917166
yeah, because i wasn't implying the shooter could shoot more accurately seeing the target 4x closer. you fucking dumbass little bitch

I own the rifle btw, and it's cool dude relax.
>>
>>28917196
Yeah I do need to sight it in. I'll have to change the front post to a taller one and drift it. I was aiming at the bottom of the target and it hit near the top, over to the right. I was at 100 yards and the sights were set to 100 as well, so the post is too short.

Maybe I could use that chance to have a thinner front post.

I'm reluctant to change anything on the rifle though, that's why it isn't shooting at the point of aim.

Group size? That's probably more my fault.
>>
>>28917183
Let me guess, you got hung up on the hooded front sight while shoving your nugget up your ass

That's why you're so mad
>>
>>28917196
>>28917196
>>28917097

yes we learned this in 6th grade science, explain to me how you can have high accuracy on a target when your front sight post is fatter than all 6 of the red rings of the circle you are shooting at. unless you shot with your m44 strapped in a non-mobile vise which we cant see from that pic, your rifle can shoot better
>>
>>28917235
Go away sperg

I think they miss you over on Xbox live
>>
>>28917247
>>28917221
>>28917196

also, because im feeling generous and overlooking your little teenage angsty know it all cunt ass attitude, shoot your rifle with the bayonet extended and attached before fucking with the front sight. that is how the armorers sighted them in, and it will affect the POI. also, try shooting 147gr light ball, that is what poles used. you little projecting xbox aged faggot. im at least twice your age bitch
>>
>>28917235
I'm the guy with the rifle, I didn't post >>28917196

yeah it could do better

You are responding to three different people

thanks for telling us you are in your 40's, it puts the situation into context
>>
>>28917294
in that case, be sure to try dif ammo weights before going through too much trouble swapping sight posts. also, if you ever took apart the rifle and put it back together, make sure the tension is even between the tang screw and trigger guard screw, even a little flex with affect the POI
>>
>>28917303
no problem, i have collected and tuned these rifles for the last 15 years, i know my way around them pretty well now
>>
>>28916604
Please for the love of god just buy a mauser, all mosins suck ass.
>>
>>28917311
I use torque wrenches because over-torquing an action screw in a rifle I want to keep original (see "I'm reluctant to change anything on the rifle though" in >>28917221) and stripping it would be tragic.

Different ammo did have different impacts but all quite high and not as accurate as the ammo I was using for the picture.
>>
>>28917323
if anyone wants some mosin advice/questions answere im leaving this window open while watching a show on tv
>>
>>28917323
>I have wasted money collecting garbage
>tuning my rifles means I filed a front sight post down once and used a brass punch on another one
>>
>>28917335
because of the beauty of your stock and collectible nature of your variant i wouldn't mess with it any further than maybe getting a new front post and filing it to perfection, while saving the original. if it was any other mosin, i would give you the standard advice of making sure the stock wasnt contacting the barrel, shimming the tang, etc. but i would keep trying all the diff ammo you can. try to find silvertip polish lightball if you can, it comes in a blue cardboard box, laquer green steel case
>>
>>28917342
hey it's your right to be willfully ignorant, keeps their prices down for me
>>
>>28917196
This is my only post.
I was merely agreeing at the concept of a scope increasing shooter accuracy over iron sights.
>>
The best in terms of build and accuracy you can actually buy as a civilian are finn 28-76s, since the TKIV-85 aren't available as surplus
>>
>>28917127
That is obviously post war and one that came straight off the line and into a crate.
>>
>>28916866
This man speaks the truth.

Just make sure the M-39 is a real M-39 an not a shitty clapped out Mosin in M-39 stock.
>>
>>28917144
Hungarian produced model ?
