i have an old (1898) russian mosin nagant.
is it just my rifle or do all mosin nagants seem to be hard to cycle after firing.
my best guess is the cock-on-opening action.
so am i the only one out there with this problem?
would newer rifles be as bad. i saw this because a place a while from my house sells the newer m44 wwII era mosins for about $80 a piece.
i was thinking about getting about 4 or 5 to keep in the barn, truck, tractor cab, in the tool shed. for working rifles, keeping critters and varmits at bay.
