A Grainger catalog is an absolute must-have for anybody doing home repair work on just about ANYTHING. They have all manner of useful little bits and pieces for mechanical tinkering.
Different design philosophies. The Soviets never intended the AK to be serviced by the end-user rifleman beyond cleaning and lubrication. ANYTHING beyond that meant the rifle was replaced and sent back for refurbishment.
Check with your employer, many factory/distribution places over an incentive benefit that pays all or some of the cost of prescription safety glasses. Mine offers 75% coverage up to $200 list cost, which means my last set cost me $35 out of pocket.
We get free safety over-the-glasses types at...
There's nothing like an iron-sighted bolt-action single shot .22LR for learning the fundamentals of shooting. You have to re-acquire a good sight picture and re-establish your hold for each round.
Do yourself one favor before you do anything on it...go to http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/MosinID.htm and make sure you aren't making irreversible changes to something rare.

One thing that had bugged me about indoor range rules: make sure that the range does something to make shooters AWARE that there IS a range officer, and that "you is him"...and that you have the power to bind and to loose...or say "Put pressure on that, I'll call the ambulance."
I have to wonder just how extensive Heinlein's notes were...I'd say I was very familiar with the style of both authors, given that I've voraciously sought for every word either of them has written, and 'Variable Star' is a Spider Robinson book through and through...perhaps a VERY rough core of...
It's odd that these supposed "library associations" never breathed a word against "Rocket Ship Galileo"...the kids in that one not only had guns, but actually shot and KILLED someone with them, then bombed a moon base killing hundreds, then participated in the torture of a prisoner...
