CONGRATS!!!!! you now have an official excuse for missing the auction of the century!

I picked this up at a local auction tonight, and haven't even cleaned it up yet. So, please be understand she is a little dirty. It is a 1917 Remington Mosin that was sold to Finland and pimped over there. The bore is absolutely immaculate and I haven't even run a patch down it yet. There is a ton of the black tar like cosmo that I need to take care of, but for now I am one happy camper. I paid a bit for it but WAAAAAAAAY below fair market value on it. It also has the original matching Remington bayo too! The guy that put on the [sA] stamp on it must have been drunk that day, there are about 6 SA stamps on it. So here it is, a Finnish capture Remington M91 Mosin!

if you are looking for a good shooter k98(the real deal) go to sarco and get a yugo capture. they have them for $200, last i was there, and other than the receiver ring, most still have the original german markings. I have a couple and love them.

intercooler where are you located?

I am headin to the mount bethel show, dont know if forks is sponsoring it or not. Is it the same show?

or with an ar you can beat him with a wiffle ball bat

sweet

that is one of the kyber pass pakastani makes. made 100% in someone's back yard. ones built at an armory are 100% reliable. AK>AR any day!!!!!!!

good idea ray

I agree 100%. Especially in the marketplace section. A long drive will be a deal breaker for me.

My link ROFLAMO!

getting harder in Blairstown. We have a solid dusting and starting to accumulate.

Update... SNOW is coming down pretty darn good in Blairstown right now. For yall on the road today, please drive safely!

eh, there is a gunshow next weekend. We can take care of the filling part for ya! The problem is when you look at the top row, you have 2 seperated on opposite sides of the crate. You need to but the 2 next to each other, light a couple of candles, turn on some Barry White and leave the room for a while. You for one should know that mosins breed 10X worse than rabbits!

WOW, it really looks like Garanditus has hit the board worse than Mosinitus! Good luck with that beaut Radek, she sure looks good.

Moved it for ya Tony. Have a happy Thanksgiving, and good luck hunting!

This is a fair deal right now. They will require a little clean up like a mosin, but they are nice guns. This is what mitchells starts out with before they go all pimptastic with them. My link

Where are you located?

I have had a couple of members pm me regarding Mitchells Mausers. They are a horrible company and have been walking the line of fraud. They will grind off stampings and re-stamp a rifle and sell it as all original. All of the real K98's that they sell as unissued start out as regular Russian capture guns. Well now it ends up that they are taking M48 Yugo Mausers and re-stamping German markings on them. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY. I have heard of the M48 thing for a while, but here is an example. Here is a link to a discussion on Gunboards where a fella is figuring out that his new K98 is actually a re-stamped M48! Again if you are looking for a good example of a German K98, do not go for a Mitchells. They are Con Artists!!!!!!!!!!! Gunboards discussion

I figure since I make this trip every 3 weeks, I am gonna get really good at pissing off the TSA! It will be a game for me!

I guess it helped thAt I had a longisland iced tea for breakfast

Sooo, this morning in new Orleans I got "selected" to go through the body scanner. No way! So I stood there for about 5 minutes with the gate keeper shouting non stop shouting "I need male assistance". They pull me aside for a groping, I mean pat down. As the guy is patting me down I say if he had a little coconut oil, it would have saved me my last trip to Thailand. He didn't think that was funny. Then he gets near my groin and I say "dude, don't touch my junk." so after a rather exciting experience i ask him if it was as good for him as it was for me and if I could have a cigarette. He didn't think that was funny either. So after he is done messaging me, I mean groping, wait no I mean patting me down he has to test his glove in a machine. As I am waiting, I politely ask him if I can tip him for his services, again he didn't think that was funny. I then ask him if he got his training at marilyns in Thailand. Again not funny. This time I get lectured if I have any more comments I would be labeled as a resistor. So the test is done and I walk away and I hear the next patron in line ask "hey Ming Lee, how much does this cost again. And how much extra for a happy ending". LOL

I would pop it in with just the stripped bolt and op rod. Tou should be able to feel the bolt not close all the way.

I bought a FAL from a cop in Nigeria a couple of years ago for $50 American. Just to say I did it. You can walk up to a cop or soldier and buy thier gun. It was a sweet gun I gotta say. I left it in the corner of the hotel room leaning against the wall
