Check the headspace using the headspace gauges available from Okie headspace gauges, just click the Okie banner at the top of every board page and order the ones for 7.62x54r. They are very easy to use, and come with instructions. Welcome to the board . :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I have recently been bitten by the surplus rifle bug. I really like the Mosins in particular. I have two, a 1939 91/30 and a 1954 Chinese Type 53. I am looking to move up to some more collectable Mosins in the future. Would like to find a number matching M44 without import marks and an original sniper rifle from the WWII area. I have posted a before and after video of my Chinese type 53. Hope you like it.

If you didn't make a first post after registration you were not banned, the computer brain just decided that you were a spam bot and dumped the registration. It's something it will do as part of the boards anti spam measures, spam bot registrations are a problem for every board. Welcome to the board :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Just got a 1943 izhevsk mosin nagant M91/30 it looks real ruff, but nice where it counts. the muzzle hasn't been counterbored and the rifling in strong with no pitting

Thanks for letting me be here!!!
