Finally Arrived!

SwedeSteve · 05-09-2008, 09:27 PM

Just before I left to link up with Moosemus Stinkamus, the Mail Man delivered me one prime M91/59! She got all matching, sweet barrel, but counterbored, and a real pretty stock with 7-8 cartouches showing! I haven't even held her much yet! Too many irons in the fire, and the Chief of Smoke is home until 2000hrs! I told Moose, I giggled. I had to make another stop after we met so didn't bring it to show. Besides, he had a nice buy x2 to show. Will post pics tomorrow! Oh, and for those of you that are all set to blast me on the "I'm done with Mosins except a M28", I ordered this BEFORE I said that! Kiss my grits!

Congrats on the new addition swede. Look forward to the pictures.

Did you happen to take any others today?

texnmidwest · 05-09-2008, 09:52 PM

Swedius Attitudimus! Congrats on the purchase! Don't worry about the resolutions...that is the problem with mosinitis....we can't stop ourselves!

Capt'n Mil Coll · 05-09-2008, 10:34 PM

91/59 is some kind of Mauser right? How much where did you get it. Why didnt you get me one too? Where is the pics? Hey congrats. Now Im green with envy.

Geo M44 · 05-09-2008, 10:47 PM

You are one lucky dude. A 91/59... how can you keep from, well you know...Hope you are enjoying those 20 hours of daylight.

SwedeSteve · 05-10-2008, 05:54 AM

Thanks all! Finally got to sit down and really go over this rifle. It is one cool girl. I had just gotten over playing with my M38. Now I have a new one to start all over again. Will post pics when I get some daylight.

just_a_car · 05-10-2008, 03:03 PM

Glad you finally got one SS!

I love "Svetlana" and "Ivanova", they're both numbers-matching, non-counterbored. Ivanova has the heaviest trigger I've felt on a mosin, but Svetlana's trigger pull is the lightest and crispest; sooo smooth.

What I love about these mosins is it's like having a bull-barreled m38!

NRAJOE · 05-10-2008, 03:27 PM

Never should of sold mine...it was very cool...oh well...got enough Mosins as is....

NO NO NO!!!! Not true! You can never have too man Mosins!
Wifes/girlfriends may disagree though.
My wife told me 2 was enough. I didn't argue for obvious reasons - I didn't want to lose.

Mooseman684 · 05-10-2008, 09:31 PM

Yep...SwedeeStevee wouldn't bring it to show me...I think he was afraid I would Armwrestle it from him and outrun him back home !!!LOL

That is one gorgeous redhead. And one ugly no yuogggly handgun. No ofense meant but now I see what they mean about highpoints. But hey if it shoots well thats all that matters.

Geo M44 · 05-10-2008, 10:34 PM

Nice 38 Rich. Love that original pre 43 stock.

Yes I am a little envious.

texnmidwest · 05-10-2008, 11:49 PM

Very nice there Rich! Glad you finally picked one up. I don't feel so bad about wanting to buy one I found locally.

Them's fightin' words, mister. Now I got to go take mine out of the safe and calm her down, and explain to her that no one really thinks she's a German just because she's blonde...shame on you.
