Mosin rifles rock.
Indeed. I have a couple or three inhabiting a safe.
(Cabelas had ‘em for $130 last weekend. I may have to check and see what they have this weekend. One store had about 30 on the rack. Mostly ‘42 and ‘43 Izzys)
I know many people love the Mosin. I have accidentally owned a couple in the past. One never made it out of the US. To me they look like what they are ~ peasant rifles.
They just don’t have the lines of a 03A3 or a 98 Mauser.
