My first remington mosin nagant.. Thoughts on it.

You want opinions?

Its a shame someone did that to that rifle.

I suggest replacing the stock and barrel, take some time looking for the us contract parts, in the meantime buy another mosin and rob its barrel and stock. Save the original stuff for what its worth.

Heck yeah buddy! I see her wrapped in walnut with ebony tips. The collectors value is shot... So built something unique to pass down the generations.

Sounds cool. I really need to make a trip up that way soon anyway.

Sounds good! Let me know when you get it in hand. We will go from there with her resurrection.

To heck with all that noise. Can you say SBR?

Or better yet, Mosin Pistol! (Although technically it would still be a SBR)

Those look awesome. How can I do that LEGALLY?

Remington Mosins are unique but, in the big scheme of things it's one in 17,000,000 Mosins built and few bring more than $200. Those that do have a story or a factory scope. My Finnish Capture M28 is very rare and sought after yet $250 seems to be the high water mark on it. That being said, I would shoot my Mosins against any iron sighted bolt action military or hunting rifle on the market. The Remington markings are cool and would have been worth a "Mosin Premium" of $200 +/- 10% had the stock and barrel not been altered. The fact that they were means nothing of it shoots true. Honestly, it will shoot better like that than it would with the heavy wood all the way to the front sights and will kill a deer, hog, elk, bear, wolf, coyote, human etc... @150+ yards with no problem and do so with consistency and a coolness factor unmatched by a modern hunting rifle.

Since its already Bunba'd I say leave her be and shoot the snot out of it. It's a quality gun and will outlast your grandchildren's grandchildren.

$200 dollar tax stamp and a six month wait from the ATF.

Good info thanks. I feel better now. I have $85 in it as it sits. I would like to get the stock fixed and that front sight done. I've never fired one of these. How much recoil does it have? Thinking about letting my 10 yr old do some hunting with it if it doesn't kick too bad.
