Flint McCloud 3103L Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Ode to the Three Line Rifle Nicely done, Bob... I just ordered through a C&R buddy of mine a sniper version, a round receiver, and a hex receiver and 880 rounds of ammo... My birthday is right around the corner and it was calling to me... 8-) Vaya con Dios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Great Pome I pimped my 1917 P 17 and lost a round when I had the floor plate straigtened. Now it looks like a sporter and shoots like a military. Hmmmm. Something wrong here. Maybe it needs more bench time. Sure looks good tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Lots of snow and mud on the ground this morning. Looks like Stalingrad. Maybe I'll low crawl down to the range and pop off a few. Wonder where I put those Nazi targets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckshot Frank Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Nicely done, Bob... My C&R buddy just ordered a sniper version, a round receiver, and a hex receiver and 880 rounds of ammo that he is gifting to me for my birthday which is right around the corner and it was calling to me... 8-) Vaya con Dios Fixed it for you. The other statement would represent a straw purchase . Sounds like a good start of a collection. You will want to add a Finish M39 Mosin in the future; they are sweet shooters.

Spooky Joe, SASS #24061 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Mine's the sniper version with the 4x scope. Obtained new still wrapped in cosmolene. Kicks less than the carbine but will still put a Georgia mule to shame. Sights calibrated in arshins, whatever they are (basically 28 inches) 100 arshins is approx. 70 meters. Extremely accurate rifle if you can tolerate the recoil.The Germans learned to fear a M-N 1891/30 in the hands of a competent shooter. Much more accurate than I am. I'd be willing to bet that out to about 5-600 meters it can hold ts own with anything you'd care to put against it. Not bad for a design that's older than dirt.

Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Ya know UB The M-44 does a great job of shutting up loud mouths at the range , when fed heavy M/G ammo .

Clay Mosby Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Anybody who's fired a Mosin will never speak about Russian soldiers not being tough, that's for sure. When I first got my M44 a couple years ago I boght some Wolf 180gr ammo for it. Took it to the range and put 10 rounds through it. My shoulder still aches a bit when I think about shooting it again. Of course I didn't have a recoil pad like I will the next time I shoot it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chickasaw Bill SASS #70001 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I am starting to think , UB and I are the only ones that like to shoot the M/N . It does not kick that bad ( I have shot worse ) May have to slog through the mud to go to the range today . CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does not kick that bad ( I have shot worse ) May have to slog through the mud to go to the range today . CB I love shooting Mosins. Depending on the gun/ammo combination, there is a huge variance in comfort. A 91/30 or Finn Mosin shooting Czech Silvertip is a joy to shoot (similar to shooting a .308). On the other hand, shooting Hungarian heavy ball (machine gun ammo) out of an M38 carbine is a heck of an event. A three foot fireball in full daylight, followed by trying to put your shoulder back in its socket . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There just is sonething about it that just makes me take it out and shoot it. Just opened my seventeenth sardine can of ammo for it. I keep the lids to keep track of the ammo I use. Still love it.

Grouchy Greg, SASS#71981 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I'm still seeing Mosins at gun shows around here for less than $100. I don't know how much longer I can resist.

Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted May 21, 2011 Share Posted May 21, 2011 I didn't know that you could shoot bullets out of a spear. That Mosin looks like something out of the English Civil War. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
