I'm a newcomer to the Mosins having been an SMLE devotee for many years. Last year I was given a barreled 91/30 (Tula 36) action. By December I got around to collecting all the odds and ends then finished assembly. Shot her in Jan 06 and fell right in love. In 3 months I'm up to 3 91/30's & 1 Mdl44. As the Mosins increase the SMLE's decrease.
There is a gun show in Mesquite,Tx this weekend and I will sell off one of my last two Enfields there. I'm hoping to pick up a couple of 1895 Nagant's or a Tokarev. I feel the need for few Russian pistols and of course I still need to get a Mdl38. SVT's, I'm afraid to even think of the response from the wife if I spent that much. A local Gun Shop has one for $650 causing me some real anguish.
If any of you blokes are north of DFW I shoot at the Collin County Gun Range, McKinney Texas. I love the alarmed looks when fireballs detonate from the Mdl44.

nagant,

I'll 2nd that, welcome aboard (woo-hoo). I am more fond of Nagant's I think than anything else. Crude guns, but highly funtional and suprisingly accurate!

Ummmm.... before you sell them to some unapreciative lug at the gunshow, ever consider posting it here for sale? I know at least one guy that might be interested....:cool-devil:

Thanks. If the Gunshow is a bust I will do that. One individual has set up a meet there already.

If you like accuracy, watch out for FINN-I-TOSIS!
