Budget Mosin-Nagant Refinish (with pics)

[RAL1979 9]

Due to my own stupidity (a brake cleaner mishap), I had to refinish this Mosin. Came out pretty good for my first attempt at a stock restoration. Used some mahogany stain and finished off with many coats of boiled linseed oil. Looks better than when I originally brought it home, but it was pretty rough to begin with.

Pretty close to an original look. Nice.

[BlueLineFish 615]

Very good original look. Nice work

[Damjan 73]

As if Sergey and Boris did it themselves in the re-arsenaling plant in the Urals circa 1966

[Texas Shooter 35]

Absolutely gorgeous! You've made Boris and Ivan proud!

[Adam 6]

Looks great, I'll be calling you for tips when I get new furniture for the Stevens 410

[Pew Pew Plates 358]

Looks great, does not destroy the rifles character

[RAL1979 9]

thanks all, I have some better pics to put up when I get around to it
