awesome.

 

Dan (djg0770) raced up to Cherry Ridge right after work to give our Mosins a run. He brought his M44 and I brought two 91/30's that I've never shot before and my trusty M4. His M44 was dead on and my groupings were good but I need to drift the sights a tad for them to be on. We had a great time and left with very sore shoulders. I shot some video with my camera and snagged these bad a$$ stills. All stills are of Dan's M44. Check them out:

 

P.S. Thanks for hanging out, Dan!

 

 

 

very cool pics

Mosins are so...

-punishing

-flashy

-fun

-cheap

-simple

-accurate (at least at 50 yds)

 

Thanks for coming out Rich!

They'll do 100. We just need more trigger time and stronger shoulders. 8-)

"LimbSaver" - honest, that's the brand, in a Winchester box, at a Walmart in PA. I have the same thing on my shotty.

Sorry.

 

Looks like you guys had fun. I'm still not ready for the jump into rifles, but I know a good time when I see one.

I'm the exact opposite. I enjoy rifles infinitely more than pistols. I'm still wondering why I even purchased a pistol. :oops:

I'm going to have to pick one of those up.

 

That looks like fun. Now if I had better eyeballs....

What's the caliber? I still haven't shot my 8mm Mauser. Or a half dozen others that I have, for that matter.

Mosin's are 7.62x54r so just a tad larger than 308 in power.

 

They are extremely accurate.

 

And yes, the ghetto gauze recoil pad was nuts. It did work though lol.

Haven't shot mine neither, a trip to Pennsy is much needed.

It's a shame we didn't get a photo of the black bear.

I had one shot where I hadn't properly located "the pocket". Hurting today...

Same here...I'm much more into rifles than pistols. I get bored from pistols in about 10 mins....rifles I can shoot all day, even if its just plinking with a .22 at cans / fruit / etc. I never get tired of that.

Wow, great muzzle blast pictures. Thanks for sharing!

It took me til now to figure this out. Not funny guys, not funny.

Agreed, I'll take a rifle over a pistol any day, for most any situation. As for Mosins, the more pictures/info I see, the more I consider adding one...

Well, you certainly can't beat the prices. Where else can you get a good rifle for under $200?
