My father did the amphibious landing at Inchon. He brought back a Mosin from that beach. I was given the rifle as a kid ( I am 72, now) and have fired hundreds of rounds through it. It has a built in folding bayonet. As a very young kid I pushed crayons through it pretending they were bullets, which may have helped preserve the rifling. An interesting and beloved souvenir of war.

If its anything like mine: It will be sighted in for when the bayonet is attached. Without it the shots will be off in a diagonal direction (I forget which) due to how the barrel shakes from the shock of firing and that being different with/without the bayonet. I remember it being off by 4-8 inches or so at 100 yards. The vertical can be adjusted already with the built in sights, but in order to change the horizontal point of aim you gotta physically knock the front sight by smacking it. If you don't have a brass hammer then take some other (not steel) object as a guide and use that to drift the front sight post. Other than the obvious point of aim issue you may have a bolt that becomes incredibly difficult to open after a few shots. The first thing is to make sure it's entirely clean (when I bought mine it was coated in cosmoline), other than that check for manufacturing defects along the surface of the bolt that turn when you open it. If it's any consolation then there are films of WW2 soldiers having to smack their Mosin bolts open so you're in good company @@noname-lc3ms

I almost said no, but I decided to take a chance. I ended up getting a VERY good condition 1927 Izhevsk. I mean this thing is in GREAT condition. All numbers match except the magazine, and that's including the bayonet. The bore looks almost like it has never been shot or maybe had only a few magazines through it. I definitely scored with this purchase. I actually purchased the rifle to do a sporter project. But when I seen what I got, there was no way I could tear it up. It is way too clean to destroy.

@@DoraTheMFDestroyaAccuracy is greatly overrated in a general infantry context. When these rifles were being produced in the late 19th / early 20th century, they were overwhelmingly being used with iron sights. The Mosin is about a 3 MOA rifle, so even at 300 yards the radius by which it will miss is up to about 4.5 inches. If aimed center mass, a gun with that accuracy will always hit a human target. With iron sights, it’s difficult to aim at a person from beyond 300 meter anyways, especially if they are in cover. In other words, a 1 or 2 MOA accuracy found on Western bolt-action rifles of the same period would have been wasted without a scope, and infantrymen were not issued scopes. Heck, even the scopes that did exist were much worse than ones we have today. On the other hand, the cost savings which were obtained by the less stringent manufacturing standards allowed Russia to produce more rifles and equip more soldiers for the same amount of money spent, which definitely has a greater impact on the war effort than a marginally more accurate infantry rifle. That’s the reason the USA today is using $600 3 MOA M-16s rather than $2,000 0.5 MOA M-16s with AR-15 parts.

С Мосиным я делаю так. African safety-you send a round into the chamber, slowly lower the firing pin from the cocked position to the non-cocked position, raising the bolt handle and gently squeezing the trigger, then slowly close the bolt. When you need a shot, you raise and lower the shutter handle- ok, ready to shoot. And in the bush, when we are in danger or we go to the beast, you need to put your finger under the trigger. This is necessary so that the branch does not accidentally pull the trigger

You really shouldn't be doing any extensive shooting any centerfire rifle bigger than .223 unless you have a recoil shield, such as the PAST, strapped to your shoulder. It's not about being tough or manly, it's about soft tissue damage, torn rotator cuffs, and with very heavy calibers, even detached retinas. Anything more than 20 rounds at one sitting, and you are exposing your body to surprising amount of risk that WILL catch up with you as you age.

Great rifles. My very first rifle was a Mosin m44 I purchased from big 5 sporting goods for 79$ or something like that, with the Ammo cases, grease container, field tool kit and it still had grease packed inside everywhere, never fired as far as I could tell. I took it to an old timer to help me adjust the front sight and it was dead on accurate till I finally sold it a few years later thinking I could just go get another for 100$ any time I wanted lol 😆. Here we are Thursday March 10th 2022 in what may be the beginning of ww3. Im getting ready to order another mosin just to have.

With my Mosin (91/30) the tight bolt was due to the cosmoline they used to store the gun. Takes only a small amount and as soon as the gun heats up the bolt sticks requiring you to use the "mosin slap" technique. Took just a thorough tear down and cleaning of the bolt to fix the issue. Now it runs great.
