in the shorter carbine version. Questions, what is the source of two good synthetic and good wooden repl. stocks for these rifles without getting too
carried away on prices.Dependent upon pricing, I want to go back with a thumbhole wood stock on both. Also, I need help in locating some scope
mounts and rings for these rifles. Thirdly, have any of you tried to change or modify the safety knob for a better grip as the round knob is very different for sure than what we are all used to. happy1938 |
Howdy!
As for the bolt and it's knob - If you mail your bolt handle with $34 to this guy:
mburrows@valornet.com
ePay seller "mellbee"
stating "clearance" (if you are going with the ATI mount) and "max legnth" (if you want it longer for better leverage)
Optionally with a "Badger Ordinance tactical bolt knob" (about $35) :

You'd have a nice sniper style bolt for about $70
As for the mount - JLM of surplusrifle.com approves of both the IO mounting plate that makes the Mosin compaible with Russian style scopes (like POSP) $50 :

As for stocks-
The above link also shows the ATI lightweight plastic stock, a treat if you like plastic. If you like wood Boyd's sells the RIA stocdk for Mosin new for $56 (IIR) and "seconds" (when avaialble) for $35
