Just picked up my Type 53 and after trying to clean the snot out of it I see that there's something possible in the barrel. I ran a thing metal rod down the muzzle end to see if i could feel anything but i can't really tell how far down it is. Has anyone ever seen anything like this in their mosin barrels? It looks likes it's above the surface so i'm assuming this is a no-go to shoot unless i can clear it out? is it possible for the barrel to pit that large? What would you guys recommend to clean the bore with? I've pretty much cleaned everything but the bore.

Notarized?? Thats a bit extreme... I think I'd go nuts if I ever had to involve my employer about anything I do outside of the office. Everyone I work with except for ONE person is extremely anti-2a.

I wish I picked one up in 9mm when they were less than $380 on PSA brand new

Thats a beautiful springfield. Nice choice.

I wish I was only waiting for the NICS check.

great find!

Reminds me of the little girl from the movie badass. Great shooting.

I should've asked my friend to make a copy to fax it in case something like this were to happen. Lesson learned, but In my experience USPS never really loses letters and have a feeling it's sitting on their desk. Next time I think i'll send those reference letters certified mail with delivery confirmation.

No I can understand that NJSP is backed up, but then really wonder how some towns are issuing permits/FID's so quickly? Just seems odd to me. I'm not going to go crazy and bother my PD to speed it up. I more or less wanted to see how others are faring. At the rate its going, I think I'll have to have waited at least 3-4 months this time around but at least the gun I'm waiting to pick up is already paid for and apparently impossible to find other than on gunbroker.

anyone have any luck with permits yet? I've just encountered another obstacle... a "lost in the mail" reference form from a buddy of mine that mailed it out over a week ago. Just wonderful... now to wait another month to have another one sent back to him to get lost again in the mail.

Well if you do be careful because they'll charge a 10% re-stocking fee for canceling. I think I lucked out because I was really polite and honest when I cancelled and they didn't charge me anything and were actually very pleasant about the whole thing.

+1 for Jeff at Wortendyke. Great guy to go to for transfers and you can't go wrong with $40 tax included.

they're taking FOREVER to ship these days... I waited about month and then eventually canceled my last order.

any updates?

Very nice find and great speech

Could be jerking the trigger. I'd suggest taking slow even trigger pulls and practice with dry firing.

yea I did it with my phone but its been pending verification. hope it goes thru soon because my first mosin carbine should clear nics any day now and i'm itching to try it out

ah okay thanks for the quick answer. wondering if there's something wrong with the image I uploaded.

is it mandatory to submit an ID to aimsurplus?

I applied on 1/4 and my money order hasnt been touched yet.

I think its local as well. I got the whole "haven't heard back from state background checks yet" bit and when I look up the status of my money order for SBI, it hasnt been touched. I bet my paperworks been collecting dust this whole time. Im getting tired of the wait. Took my pd a month to mail out reference forms and I know there isn't much going on in my town.

Wish I could've taken the day off to attend. A big thank you to everyone that made it out! Give em hell guys!

ordered the smaller 200 rd lot... damn it
