7.62 x 54R pics

Post by travisgreyfox »

Does anyone have a pencil drawn picture or something similar of a Mosin round? I want one/some for a tattoo. I could always get a artists to draw one up, but I thought maybe somebody had something that I was looking for.

THANKS

Just take a real cartridge for the artist to tattoo on you, working from the real thing they should be able to get it right,
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Heat a cartridge up and then press it to your delicate skin. He can fill in the blistered outline with ink.

That would still be less painful than being shot with one of the damn things.

Don't do it. Putting a 54r round on your skin is just like putting a name of some girl you just met on there. What are you going to do if decide to collect 8mm Mausers. What you can do is have an ammo belt done then put a different caliber in each link.

Full Metal Jacket bullet traveling at high velocity. It tends not to deform on impact with flesh but to travel in and out clean. If you weren't hit in a vital area and you had help nearby you stood a good chance of surviving the hit. The huge slow moving bullets of the 19th century black powder weapons were far worse. They would shatter bones to fragments in arms and legs when they hit, amputation being the only cure for that back then, even today you would be wearing steel rods for bones.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
