Mosin Sniper repro inbound!

Woot! Hashed out a deal with another member for his 91/30 repro sniper. Can't wait to get it and give it a go. Needless to say I will be cutting it down, putting it in a plastic stock, adding a bolt on muzzle brake, tri rails, and making a modern urban tactical rifle out of it.

Bolt on muzzle breaks are awesome... if your shot misses the muzzle break flying who knows where may possibly hit the target LOL

congrats!

What, you aren't going to reconfigure it as a bullpup?

It isn't nice to bait those who are infected with Mosinitis.

Fitting a bayonet on a shortened barrel could be a chore!

GO FOR IT instead of the plastic stock get the benchrest stock like on that Finnish m39 project it will be more tacticool at the bench.

Hey, I've got a mysterious jet black stealthy synthetic sks handguard I bet you could fenaggle on to your new sniper somehow. Top of the scope will help break up the silhouette of your head in the bush!

Black duct tape otta hold it on good enough, and since the rifle will be black it will blend right in.

It pains me to hear what your going to do to a MN sniper, repro or not. I understand the stock and even the muzzle break but why cut it down? snipers are supposed to have long, accurate barrels!
