Mosin a cute

Fun to shoot

Mosin-Nagants are only known to cause cancer in a few US states.

That's about the best I can do.

>>31499619
It goes bang when you pull it's trigger

It's a pretty reliable rifle. Decent accuracy too. At least from my experience.

I can cosplay that I'm in WWII and that my life means something when I'm actually just a loser who fantasizes about military conflicts that would make me shit blood in terror

>>31499619
The barrel is usually made of metal, so they last a pretty long time.

>>31499619
I love the action more than any other bolt gun I've used. I can't get enough of slapping it from position to position when loading.

>>31499619
Decent boat oar. Can be used as a javelin. Smells pretty good when you fire it.

They don't break and they do well for a first rifle because of that. Lets newbies get used to using a gun before getting something too nice to fuck up.

one of the stronger bolt guns out there. though i wouldn't call it the strongest.

>>31499619
It goes bang, and if you get hit with a 54r you are going to have a bad time

>>31499619
For being a turn of the century rifle it has been involved in arguably more conflicts than any other platform. Mine is 90 years old and still drives tacks. It has quirks but has been an amazing rifle.

a true peasant's rifle.

The action is strong enough to handle any ammunition fuckup (one's shoulder not so much). Even should rifle no longer function shooter is safe.

Ammunition can be made for it to handle any land beast.

Non-Communist production rifles are ridiculously smooth actioned.

If you don't enjoy shooting it you can always throw it like a javelin.

Mosin is an interesting rifle because the bayonet is essential to it.

Other rifles bayonet is optional, but Mosin needs bayonet to stabilize its harmonics so it can shoot more accurately.

Because fuck you he does what he wants? He killed hundreds of men, you gonna tell him no?

At that, it was very common for that era for military arsenals to sell off surplus rifles and actions to the civilian market, and there was industry to take this surplus and make affordable sporting arms.

In America, there was an entire cottage industry based on buying surplus Krag Jorgensen actions and building sporters out of them, because it was an affordable way to have a bolt-action hunting rifle, for some, a typical factory original kind of sporter would be too expensive, particularly if a sporterized military rifle could be just as good.
Some of these were so well done that they're actually very valuable today.

Sporterizing didn't use to be a bad word, it's more in recent decades when purpose made civilian sporters got more common and affordable, and milsurp becoming less common and affordable (well, it took longer for the Mosin, as it came a bit later and was cheap for much longer, leading to more fuckheads with no sense hacksawing the things and creating unsightly abominations).

I should add that the practice of brazing or welding cartridge conversion sleeves is a bubba practice, a properly sporterized Krag or Arisaka from back in the day would have it's barrel replaced properly if converted to another caliber.

>>31504863
What advantages, if any, does sporterizing provide?

>>31504602
/thread

>>31504901
Lighter weight, less bulk, arguably better (personalized) ergonomics, properly fitted scope rings, sleeker profile, a caliber you might prefer more.

If the barrel was free floated or glass bedded, I could see accuracy being better, but I don't know if that was done back then honestly.

>>31499756
I would pay good money for a new Mosin.
I have relatives with m14's, SCARs, and Ar15s like crazy, but nothing brings a smile to a redneck's face like healthy recoil and that bolt action.

it allows me to have a tiny connection with their history.

struggling to hit targets at 50 yards with my shit eyesight makes me realize how hard they struggled against the germans to be able to survive and accomplish enough to be recognized for their service.

on top of being a veteran, my gramps was an engineer. could've designed some sweet firearms but he was forced to work on farming machines by the soviets to benefit the economy.

My mosin is the largest caliber gun I own, next to my marlin 30-30, but the 7.62 for some reason has A LOT more bang to it. Where my 30-30 would dent a steel quarter inch plate, my mosin put a ring finger- sized hole clean through it (and I have photo evidence). The fact that all accessories are as simple as bayonet, ammo pouch, cleaning kit, oil can, sling, and stripper clip is really nice since I don't have to constantly hunt for more stuff to get for it, it's all there. The rifle (in my experience) is very accurate, with me being able to hit a one inch steel T girder right on the center showing that. Finally, I like what I can do to give it a cosmetic difference. My buddy and I, after seeing enemy at the gates and Stalingrad (2013), wanted to get some burlap for the rifle and I did just that. I used all WWII era materials (burlap and twine) to put it together and it stays firmly on there and gives it a real nice feel.
