Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
Good day all...
My first post, very happy to see this forum, great site.
I have an Izhevsk 1943 91/30 and a Yugo 59/66A1 ... The Yugo is presently out to Murry's in Tx. for firing pin and bolt work, and a ream neck and throat job.
I own other guns, but really enjoy the Mosin.
Thanks
Tim

Hi Guys,
Thanks for letting me join I have been drawn to Mosin's of all different types for many years. I wish I started collecting earlier when they were so cheap, don't get me wrong they are still very inexpensive for what you get but it would of been cool to be able to buy one for 59.00 and ammo that was dirt cheap. again I would like to say thanks for letting me join. I will be posting some pictures soon.

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
It was cool to buy Mosins at $59, even cooler to buy them at $40, or $20, coolest of all was getting them for free ( Chinese type 53 1988 ) Welcome to the board, for the most part that time is over, inflation, lack of supply and climbing demand saw to that.Scottidog498 wrote:Hi Guys,

Hello all! Bought my first Mosin about a month ago. All cleaned up and ready to go. Plan to take it to the range as long as the rain holds off.
