Just getting on after a long day of work, and a little ride to a buddy's place after. Trying to figure out how cases get dented in another post. Wondering if I will have enough money saved by the end of the month to hopefully pick up an American contract M91 or a Finn M91. It will have to be one or the other. Which would you guys recommend? Probably looking about $300, and in nice shape.

Nope I'm still here though I don't have much to contribute. I did handle my Mosin today while sitting here at Gun and Game and talking to SeabeeScotty on the phone.

I saw that post and I too cant figure out how those fired cartridges got the long dents in the side ,just behind the shoulder.Some strange stuff going on there,I think aliens did it.

I can't find anything on this. No ideas either. Based on the description without pics it was hard, now its even harder with pics lol... Ken needs to find the post and weigh in on the subject. A very interesting find, indeed.

I have gotten very small dents by having too much case lube on my brass when reloading, has his bore been checked that there isn't any thing in it at all?

Question, Wun, I'm going to refinish my Ishapore No.1 Mk3, where would the stock cartouches be , the stock is painted and can't see any!!
Good question, on the British Lee enfields it was common to find them on the right hand side of the stock but I haven't a clue about the Ishys'. I'm sure that "Alan de Enfield" will know.

Hi, Im home, but Im just feeling a little bla.,,Not sure what the problem is,just cant seem to have any good gun thoughts lately. I still like guns, and the Mosin Nagant is still my fave,, but deep within the bowels of my heart there just seems to be a void,,,kinda a deep yawning casm.I just cant explain it , maybe Ill snap outof it and start participating in the Mosin threads again, and one things for sure , some of the most entertaining times Ive had are reading things like Pslman's Aka Air Mosin's mosnitus thread' or how to fluff a mosin bear how to open a can of ammo.. But for now, I guess Ill just try and do some soul searching and figure out why I have this ,,,, blahhh feeling . Take it easy everybody, and see ya later.

Sounds like a Mosinitis relapse. Only cure is to buy a new Mosin!

Im home! My boy and I had a great day at the range yesterday. We were
there for about 4 hours and sighted in and tested 5 rifles ( maybe 4 1/2 one was a pellet rifle ) I tested a scout mount I'm working on, on a 91/30,M44, and M39. The mount worked super on the 91/30 and the M44,
but due to the completely different rear sight on the Finn its going to take a little more developement before I have one that will work on a M39.
We met several other milsurp collectors shooting their Mosins while we were there,one guy had a 91/30 sniper repo,looked real nice.
Just sitten here quietly waiting to take my new sniper out...with as new as the bore looks, I have a feeling that this one will be a good shooter...will have range report by end of the week.
