I own three Mosins- ‘42 and ‘43 Izzy’s, and a ‘36 hex Tula. I’m a fan :)
Holding a Mosin Nagant in my hands gives me a deep sense of history.
I wonder about the hands that made it, and what became of them. Did they starve to death at a later date, or were they forced to become fodder on the front lines, or maybe they ended up in a gulag to be worked to death.
So yeah, fun!
