Well, just did that. No joy. I'm hard pressed to imagine that the sight base is integral to the barrel, but 5 min with a propane torch did nada. You need a micro torch or something a lot hotter than propane, you need to melt the old solder which I doubt is silver, but it still takes a lot of heat. ...

SteveR

Your killing me here!! :D Your right about the worth of the gun now that you hacked it all up!! hahahaha Just be careful with the files when you cut in the dovetail for the front sight, not much meat in them skinny Russian barrels, you will probably have to find a way to raise the front sight though...

Here's where I am today: http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y180/MrMisanthrope/IMG_6531.jpg OAL for the rifle is now down to 42" from 50". Bbl length is 21-3/4" (I wanted an inch of "crown oops" to play with if necessary). Time to crown the bbl & get the front sight dealt...

nice steve and it does look like a modified M 27 trigger. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v238/txpete/mosin%20nagant/M27trigger004.jpg I wouldn't post any pics of the rifle here as they don't need to see another cheap $59.00 rifle :lol: :wink: pete lol, yes the trigger is pinned like a M27, but i...

the wood finish had a depth to it that I don't see anymore. milton, that is what I'm looking for :wink: You won't be disappointed with a pure Tung oil finish. It really brings out the grain as well as gives a look that it is lacquered, but is not. It is totally weather proof and if needed more Tung...

steve these guys don't get it. :roll: in 1951 there was only 1,699 finn M28's left in the finn inventory.that was counting tikka and sigs which were assembled by sako.these are some of the rarest military rifles ever made and very accurate rifles.the finn M28's were used as their sniper rifle for y...

SteveR

I think what this boils down to is collecting, yes to the uninformed and untrained eye all Mosin Nagant M91/30's all look alike. So a Tikka 91/30 look exactly the same as a Tula 91/30, but the difference in 250.00 dollars. Yes, there a tons of "cheap" Russian surplussed 91/30's for sale no...

SteveR

Hack away OI ! :D I'm in your camp on this one ---- the Mosin's have a small following but will never be worth as much as a secondhand mini-14 or MArlin 336 (even with more power ) -- may as well make it something more usable for you I am part of that small following and it maybe as you say, but am...

Ji,

Congratulations!! Many more and may they be as happy. You have my prayers for a speedy recovery and for all the other little things.

I use pure Tung oil to finish a couple of walnut stocks I had bought for my Mausers. Do not cut or mix anything to the tung oil, just put it on and keep working it till the wood absorbs it and it is tacky. Then let dry. In my case I'm in the northeast and it would take 1-2 days to fully dry. Then st...

SteveR

Hi, I don't have the 9.3x74R, but I do have a few 9.3x62 in the mauser actions. It is the ballistic twin of your rifle. I found it to be a very accurate and mild recoiling round, especially since how much of punch this caliber gives. Not a whole bunch of choices for bullets, Graf's and Sons, have Pr...

SteveR

Thanks for the replies.

They want 300.00 and the stock is beat up, so I would be replacing the rear stock at the very least.

I might make an offer and see if the seller goes for it.

Thanks again,

Steve

SteveR

What would a good price for one made in the early 50's and has wear and some rusting- not pittted?

Thanks,
Steve

SteveR

That is so neat, thanks Joe. I never would have thought they put the cordite in first. Very cool.

Thanks,
Steve

SteveR

Joe,

Thanks for posting that.

Have you pulled any of the rounds? If so what did they use powder or cordite?

Thanks,
Steve

Hi,

From what I remember is that Wolf Gold is made by Privi Partizan out of Serbia, the old Yugoslavia, and is also marketed as S&B (Seller&Bellot), Winchester, and Privi Partizan.

Its good ammo and can be reloaded.

Old Shatterhand, Sorry about the hyjack of the thread OP. Do you collect any of the Finnish Mosin Nagants? Thanks, Steve No - I haven't not even handled or seen one.

A question I forgot to ask, I know original CG 63 barrels are not available so what happen if I need a new barrel? The barrel that is on it is bedded to the action, and if you replace it you would need a good smith to relace the front sight and most likely rebed the action. But. if the bore is good...

i cant understand why this commi Mosin-Nagant gun is so popular..... Its about the history of the old rifles. I really enjoy collecting Finnish reworks of the Mosin Nagant rifles. The interesting part is they the Finns used the "commi Mosin-Nagant gun" against the USSR ie commies. The Fin...

Joe, A non-FFL holder can ship to a FFL, BUT, it is the receiving FFL that the BATF will go after. And for the transfer fee, its not worth the hassel of logging in a drivers license as legal proof. Mainly because the FFL cannot verifiy if the DL is real or fake. With a signed FFL and a call to the B...

Joe,

I found Barska to be decent and very easy on the wallet. Check out the Fall 2010 Closeouts at Natchez Shooter Supply, http://www.natchezss.com . I have bought quite a few and have been very pleased with the Barska. Look at the Ridgeline Barska ones. I haven't had much luck with BSA.

Just to clarify, the coaxial cable is shielded, and should be bonded to electrical ground. Usually at the point of entry where all of your utilities come in to your house.

Just check with a ohmmeter, one side of the coaxial shield, and one side to known good good ground.

Steve

SteveR

why are these popular?....is it just the history behind them... With to Finnish rifles I like the history part, but also the quality of the Finnish reworking the Mosin Nagant in to some of the most accurate military arms out there. The Russian ones also have a ton of history and the prices are low ...

SteveR

Now you need to buy a Finnish M39 or M28/30 and really see how accurate the Mosin Nagants can be!!!!

I understand, I bet you wouldn't get many reloads from the steel cases, but good to know that in a pinch steel boxer primed cases could be used. I would imagine that would be one of the problems with a 5.56/.233 chamber with steel cases over a long period, it seems it would cause more wear than bras...

SteveR

Ben_Rumson wrote: but I didn’t want to ruin my dies so I quit doing it.

Why would you ruin your dies? If the steel cases are soft as to seal the chamber, then they shouldn't hurt the hard steel tooling that make up dies?

Just curious, or did I misunderstand?

Steve

SteveR

If you shoot Mosin Nagants, you will get the "sticky bolt" caused by the coating melting off the cases as the chamber heats up.

I like to shoot the copper washed ammo or the zinc washed cases that Wolf and other put out, makes cleaning much easier.
