Man, that looks nice. Was it a hand select or just luck of the draw? I'm probably going to go the mail order route on the next one, trying to figure out where to buy.

You do good work my friend!!! I have it under good authority that it will stop raining by mid June.

Heck do you think that a little rain stopped Vasseli??

I might have one of those when I come back from J&G on Saturday. For $59 you can't go wrong.

But have my sights set on 600 rds of Bulgarian ammo (now price increased by $5... thank you), a spare M44,and an FEG 32ACP (they sold out of the 63's). I will be checking to see if they might have an original M38 stock (for the recent aquisition from SOG) in the back as well, and some original strippers.

The shopping list grows... as the bank account shrinks.

It is truely a candy store for military firearms and stuff.

Being that you are married, I would strongly advise against those strippers.... jk hehe


Nice shopping list... drools...

Oh yeah, I hate to be the bearer of bad news but... didn't the 91/30's go up like 10 bucks at J&G

Marion, I tend to agree on the gloss. You might want to think about a light application of 0000 steel wool to knock it down a notch.

Either way, it's a keeper...

Naaaaah! Leave it the way it is. Nothing wrong with having a nice shiny Mosin in the bunch.

I have the Spring cataloge that says prices are good for March and April. I am going to give it a try. If they honor it then 91/30's are still $59.95 and ammo is still $45.

Like I said, it's worth a try.

Well done Marion. I see why you have to wait until the rain stops. The shine on that puppy and the recoil it will shoot right out of your hands I bet. lol JK. You did a real fine job on it. Be sure to post or give a range report.
