  1. Just because I don't like muzzle loaders either, doesn't mean I have no respect for them, same with benchrest guys. They're more than welcome to enjoy what they enjoy, it's not about that. I'm just saying, this guy wants to pretend all gun show, mil surp, 50+ year old, beat up, rust pitted, cosmo soaked Mosins are magical 1,000 yard target rifles. And then links a video of a guy using a hand picked, tuned 91/30 P/U Sniper as if it's an example of the average Mosin. If he'd only leave his little fantasy world, he'd find that I'm far from the only one who feels that way.
  2. You might want to look back at the part where I mentioned having nothing against them at all? My dad owns an M44, it's pretty beat up. We love the old thing, I want my own when I have some spare cash, but please. Let's not pretend these guns are something they aren't. Now, ARs, those are shit
  3. Here you go, 50 year old, at LEAST, rifle, shooting at 1000 yards. I have some nice Mosin's that came out of the cosmo, and cosmo is doing its job protecting the rifle. t2M1hC4c0tc Here you go, would love for you to tell that guy about his POS, counter bored, 100 year old rifle. :roll: The rifle is a little modified, but nothing that a weekend cant help. Bolt actions kick a**. Whats the longest you have shot? btw, not even the nicest AK can match a good Mosin in accuracy, never mind a remington 700, which is a sub moa rifle out of the box. Once again, looks like a former sniper rifle, hand picked, tuned and modified a bit. That's not the typical, gun show, piece of shit Mosin that the other 98% are. The scope mount and scope are worth more than the rifle itself. Probably well over double. I can't call his Mosin a piece of crap, because it isn't - but hey, don't worry, there's plenty of other Mosins out there to call pieces of crap. I call it a piece of crap in a loving way. As for your revelation about the AK not being accurate....no shit, Sherlock. It never was, and never will be, a target rifle. Anyone who sinks money into the fabled "milled receivers" or "heavy barrels" and puts $600 glass on an AK is a fool that bought into advertising hype. Anyone who thinks the AK is a target rifle ought to go back and do a little history about where and why the design for the rifle came from. Man sized group at 3-400 yards is all the AK was ever meant for. It was designed to take a beating, spit bullets, cost peanuts to build and maintain, and be able to be operated by a retard with 20 minutes of "training." I'm pretty sure indexing a front sight block in Romania involves throwing the rifle on the ground, and having a donkey stomp on it. Of course a 700 or a Mosin will be more accurate than an AK. Hey, why bother listing what guns are more accurate than an AK? Do yourself a favor, and just list what rifles aren't. As far as singling out my shooting abilities? 300 yards, and I can use my rifles for what they were designed for at that range - a silhouette sized group. But do you really wanna measure range lengths, like it's a penis or something? This is NJ. You have people here who have never shot past 25 yards. Lots of them. So if you think you're cool or something cause you've shot regular rifle distances, go out in the real world and brag about that, where you will promptly be laughed at for doing so. How about you? How far do you shoot, and what kind of groups do you get with your Mosins? I guess you never heard the old expression "To each, his own" ? I don't like bolt actions. Big whoop. I also don't like muzzle loaders, romantic comedies, xbox Live, shellfish, noisy neighbors, and red wine in the absence of food. Wanna flame me for all that too? But hey, do what you want. If you'd like, we can pretend that all Mosins are magical 1,000 yard target rifles :roll:
  4. Yeah, I'm just not into that kind of shooting (long range bolt), sorry.
  5. The Mosin Nagant is a rusty old piece of junk. It's like holding a two by four with a pipe wedged inside of it. They usually smell like crap from 5-6 decades of cosmoline, and are usually better off as a baseball bat than a target rifle. That said, for $250 you walk out the door with a rifle and 440 rounds of ammo capable of killing anything that walks this continent. It's also nice to know that if you decided to use it as a crowbar, or a boat oar for a little while, it will probably still shoot just fine. It's also a great way to arm a family of five for under $600. There's no reason not to own at least one of them IMO. Trust me, the rifle can shoot far better than you can. =) I would put up any mosin picked from a crate, in the competent hands of a good shooter, versus the top of the line 308, glass bedded, fully floated, in a modular AI stock, on a bench, with a 40x optic and an incompetent shooter. You do realize Russians about 40 years ago took a stock Mosin, made a few accurized modifications, and beat the Finns, Norwegians, and others in the winter Olympics? Dont let the price fool you. The price is simply a factor of market demand and supply, with the later being ALOT. Yeah, you're right. A piece of crap 50+ year old rifle with a barrel crown worn to all hell, counter-bored, full of rust and pits, covered in cosmoline, straight out the crate at a gun show is an Olympic quality target rifle :roll: Like I said, for blasting 100-200 yards your average gun show Mosin is just fine. I've seen some do some nice man sized groups around 400 yards or so. They're fun guns, but please, let's not pretend they are some wonderful magical rifle. Their appeal is their price and durability. PS I do not even own any expensive bolt actions, they're a waste IMO.
  6. No, you cannot legally drive around with a box of hollow points in the trunk. I remember reading of a guy who was charged with "possession of a hollow nosed or dum dum bullet" because he had a single inert round turned into a keychain on him. If you are not engaged in the activities below, according to the law, you are guilty of a felony:

  8. I can't stand that show because of that d-bag they have as an announcer "This [whispers] is a five....five...six....round....these guys....are special forces.....they're shooting....live rounds....[/whispers]" Oh yeah, tool bag? I normally call that "a trip to Walmart and the shooting range" but hey, you go on acting like you're so damn cool dude.
  9. There are only a relative handful of firearms in the entire USA that are actual full auto AKs. Most of the semi auto "AKs" you see on gunbroker are one of the many, many "sporter" ones imported and the receivers will say MAK-90, MAADI, SLR, M70, etc. and all of the US built ones by companies like Lancaster, Century, etc. are all made from Soviet parts kits on USA made receivers like the NoDak SPUD and such. Most of these guns will be a various names like NDS-3 or MAADI on a 4473. A lot of these "AK"s you see on gunbroker do not even say AK on them at all and are just advertised that way. It is pretty uncommon, especially these days, to find a semi auto AK that says AK anywhere on it. Even some of the very early import ones, before various import laws were passed, as well as actual weapons, even say AK anywhere on it - ie Type 56, AMD 65, etc. It just shows the stupidity of these laws really. But, at least we can be happy we're not in Connecticut I guess.
  10. If the brake is permanently attached, yes. Make sure the muzzle has no threads, and it is a muzzle brake not a flash hider.
  11. $100 says a 3lb sledge will get into his gun closet. I really hope you never get robbed by a guy who owns a hammer.
  12. And just how would anyone know which house has a gun and which doesn't? Do you have a big sign on your lawn or something? Also, where are you getting all this detailed psychological profiling and inside information from? How do you know what most thieves are after or not? If you think having a gun makes you a deterrent, maybe while you're home. But while you're away, leaving half a dozen guns in a closet than can be smashed through in seconds is about as naive as it gets if you ask me.
  13. Welcome to last year. Jesus, does ANYONE bother to read the dates on web pages or no?
  14. I was thinking of that, but they'd still be on my record here in NJ. I had that explained to me awhile back, when the Firearms Dept in Jersey City showed me a record of my S&W 686 being sold, thus being removed off my registration record and onto someone elses. Also did that when I sold a pair of cowboy guns out of state. Makes me wonder what other stuff they keep on record.... Ah, I see. Best to sell them then.
  15. You could surrender them but if they are really just straight up junk, under federal law if you cut the receiver into pieces or just smash it to bits with a sledge hammer or something that'll do the trick. Not sure if NJ law views it any different or not. Good way to take out stress too lol.
