probobly a garand. I have an enfield and have shot Garands. But, I would choose the garand only if I could be assured of having Mil-spec m2 ball ammo. Bone stock garands seem to short stroke on lighter powered loads in my limited experience with garands.

thanks for the compliments guys. As far as gloss goes, I kind of wanted this one to be shiny. not authentic but I think it looks good. I could have hit it with some steel wool to dull it down but chose not to. For a stock that is exactly 100 years old, I think she cleaned up nice. It...

so, i used red mahagony stain (2 coats) and 6 or 7 coats of tru-oil followed by steel wool in between. Granted this is by no means authentic. But I think it turned out nice. the pics are kind of bad quality....

Russian M91 made in 1909

No, Ive thought about it but thats too many names to think up.

Asking him firmly(loudly) but nicely but probobly would have worked too. If someone came up to me and got in my face and started to make a scene in a public place, I sure as hell wouldnt be in a big hurry to give them what they wanted. Then again, I wouldnt be "that guy" and take another guys...

What most people dont know is that many "american" things arent so american and vice versa. There are chevies that are made in canada and mexico and there are toyotas and hondas that are made in the U.S. So much for being a proud chest thumping american and "buying american" Ive been to...

penetrating oil is how I eventually got it off. Unfortunately I do not own a vice though. I will just take out the plug every 5 or 10 rounds.

Thats a good deal for a non ffl holder. Most of the mosins around here are 125 and up.

No problem;) For defense and durability reasons the SSA is the way to go, but if you are shooting matches, Taliv is right, the geissele hi speed is the way to go. My SSA breaks very clean, but it is around a 4# break. That suits my needs perfectly as I will not be shooting quarters at 100...

Thanks for the replies guys, sorry it took me so long to get back. The powder was hodgdon pyrodex pellets. (100 grains) I shot about 25 rounds total. As far as hot water, I am a fan of a 3 part mix of isopropyl alcohol, murphys oil soap, and hydrogen peroxide and has always done the trick...

Owen- The military version is called the SSF. If you do a search on the SSF and read about it on various sites, you will eventually come accross the information that states that it is replacing KAC triggers. Here is a link that says the NWSDG (naval warfare special development group)...

The geissele SSA is supposed to last as long as the standard triggers. It is a well known and documented fact that it is replacing the KAC 2 stage triggers in military m4s used by elite military units. The KAC has a known service life of around 3000 rounds, and bill geissele and others have...

As far as which is a "better rifle". The mauser IS the better rifle hands down. Stronger action, better trigger, better overall metalwork and woodwork (assuming we ARE talking about a kar98k), and they have good reputations for accuracy. I have a mosin nagant and I will probobly wind up...

I would go with the yugo. Love that mauser action :D

check your local gunstore. All the gunstores that I have been in that have more than 5 guns for sale have a mosin nagant. Most of them have multiple mosins.

Im in the process of redoing mine because I had the same problem on my 1909 M91. I got the finish off, then applied 2 coats of red mahogany stain, and am now waiting for my Birchwood casey tru-oil stock oil to arrive so I can add a nice protective shine to it while still looking somewhat...

Dr. Tad, yes, which finish will LOOK close to the original, yet will hold up better, not be as sticky, etc, etc???

cool, thanks guys. Which one is a darker shade, the tung oil or BLO???
