>there are people who buy Mosins, SKS's, Mausers, etc and put them in Crapco stocks or even abominations like OP's pic

I don't understand. Why would you buy that garbage when a surplus stock in good condition costs all of ~$35?

Why not?
It IS their gun, they can do whatever the hell they want.

>>33185581
What the fuck is wrong with this person?

>>33185581
I feel like this is poorly machined, but the concept bears *some* merit. It reminds me of the blaser r93 a little bit.

Also, mosins don't really benefit from free floating. The barrel's too thin. The stock actually improves barrel harmonics on this sort of rifle.

>>33185581
So where are the sights?

Its just one of millions they said

Its *their* rifle they said

Its just a $100 rifle they said

Its just a $150 rifle they said

A Mosin isn't worth $200 they said

>Paying $250 for a nugget
They green texted

Why are mosins $300 they wondered

>>33185741

Sure, but I still have the right to criticize their shit taste. I do the same for the fuckheads who "sportorize" things like Mosins and Enfields.

>>33185904

Unfortunately people don't seem to understand the concept of inflation and limited supply. To put that in numbers, $1.00 USD in 2001 is now equal to ~$1.42 USD in 2017. Combine that with the fact that there will never be more Mosins, Mausers, Enfields, SKS's, or so on, and you get a formula for expensive weapons.

We all joke about how it's dumb to pay $250 for a Mosin now, or how a $350 Chinese SKS is a mediocre deal, but I can promise you both will be seeing ludicrous prices in 10-20 years from now due to the dwindling supply, the scarcity of ones in top condition, and the inflation of money in general.

so someone attached a barrel to an erector set?

>Why are mosins $300
because retarded autists made the nugget a meme and thus demand rose while supplies dwindled, the nugget(excluding finn examples) is not worth more than $150. at this point no one buys a nugget unless it is for the memes or because they only get advice from /k/ circa 2010

Because an SKS is a rugged, reliable and cheap utility rifle with little to no collector value and I wanted a pistol grip stock that could get wet without me caring about it.

Dunno why anyone would try to tacticool out a Mosin or Mauser though.

>Rifle still has a shot out bore firing an archaic rimmed cartridge with expensive match ammo or bore destroying steel jacketed surplus

This is pretty fucking ugly

>>33193531
I like my m44 but my tikka blows it away any day of the week

>>33193531

You're right about everything except for the ammo bit. 54R is still a pretty good round, all things considered. Surplus is fine too as long as you're cleaning out the corrosive stuff.

Also, it isn't hard to find a surplus rifle with a never fired barrel.

Why don't people just ruin guns the good old fashioned way?

>>33193689
I own 4 mosin variants, m44, 91-30, Finn m91, and finn m39
Once I got that m39 it's the only thing I shoot regularly with white box generic new production ammo.
Not one of my guns has a shot out bore but they all have shit triggers, even the m91 finnnugget has a long heavy take-up

And I work in a gun shop, so I know what's worth buying. Ain't a nugget anymore.
