>just picked up my first czech today
Why the fuck would anyone willingly subject themselves to cock-on-close? Maybe it works on the enfield, I don't know, but the early mauser actions are shit compared to the later ones.
It's way smoother you fucking dope. You can actually keep your sight on the target because you don't have jerking movements going on. My Arisaka and SMLE are some of my fastest to shoot guns because of the cock on closing being able to make it so you don't have to re acquire your target after every shot.

I don't like it either, I feel that the force to push it forward pushes the muzzle down. Anyway, keeping your sights aligned during shooting a full power bolt action rifle is a stupid fucking meme.
Cock on opening is patrician tier.

>smoother
I've had a friend with a Spanish Mauser and a Yugo of my own for years.
I rarely shoot without said friend to the point where we both practically co-own our firearms.
The thing is. Having shot both cock on close and cock on open firearms, NOT JUST MAUSERS, I can definitively say you're wrong, and a slack jawed dick up your ass faggot.
Cock on open is smoother and faster.
Can you name literally any bolt action rifles made post 1950 that were cock on close?
No?
For a damn good reason

You reek of not having owned a gun above $500 value in your life. Sounds like you just buy the bottom of the barrel guns and complain when they don't give you the performance you want. And did you stop to think that speed isn't a priority for bolt actions made after 1950? No bolt action after 1950 would be used in a standard infantry setting you moron, only for hunting for sniping.

You're an idiot, SMLE may work for cock on close but it's hard as shit to work that Mauser action with the spring so tense
>>34826322
Shut up fag cheaper guns are better because you don't have to worry about them being pretty all the time
i like the cock on open on my mosin.
a few of the people i let shoot it cant get the bolt open sometimes though
>>34826322
>hating on Czech guns
Czech guns are at least as good if not better than the vast majority of any guns to the west of them.
>>34826231
>It's way smoother you fucking dope.
It really isn't.
>>34826322
My own personal collection.
I don't own any cock on close Guns because they fucking suck.
I've shot cock on close firearms owned by friends.
The actual act of working the bolt is shitty.
And just because they're primarily used for hunting doesn't mean speed is suddenly irrelevant.
You're also a faggot for hating CZ.

The bloke has deposited .25 to your account
>>34826174
Anyone else think a cock on close just feels "primitive"?
>>34826174
Being a lefty, it's easier for me to pull the action open than close it, just my two cents. Also, straight bolts are nice.

>>34826793
I like straight bolts on long rifles, but they look out of place on carbines/short rifles to me.
>>34826792
No, you're right it does. Shame that so many great rifles use it.
>>34826841
I'd like the 1917 if it were cock on opening, but the way it feels for me is just meh.
I've heard the conversions to cock on opening aren't totally reliable.
>>34826827
Get off my back, bitch!
>>34826923
aww... bitch
The Swedish Mauser has one of the nicest actions I've ever felt. You're probably a limp wristed faggot who can't close his bolt.
>>34827372
Keep sucking that COC bitchboy..
>>34826749
Why did you blur out the butt and mag in the FAL? you got some gay shit hiding there?
I own both a Spanish Mauser and an M93 Mosin so far, and I'd have to say that the Mosin's action is definitely my favorite. It's smoother when shooting standing or benched. I'd argue that the Mauser's action makes it harder for me to keep my snapshots going because it require a bit more force to close, setting the rifle off-balance upon closing. But, I guess everyone has their own tastes.
COO and COC are both shit m8
