The addiction starts!

[JohnP82]

Well a big thanks goes out to fellow INGO member Plinker for getting me hooked!
Just picked up my first 91/30 today
I can't wait to get her cleaned up and ready to shoot.

Welcome to the club, you will have fun with it and man will they shoot!

 

[dpzj96]

My Mosin is my favorite gun to shoot! Cheap Ammo. Fireballs. Big booms. You can't go wrong with a 91/30!

 

[edsinger]

Was this after only 2 shots? WoW! Either way, welcome to the club. next you will be looking for am M44

If only you knew how deep the sickness runs, you wouldn't be thanking anybody. Usually starts with the 91/30s, then you start on the carbines, then the 91s, then before you now it, you get the terminal stage of Mosinitis, the Finns.

Congrats on your first of no doubt many! Any details (arsenal, year, etc.) yet?

Welcome to the Mosin Club! Nice looking 91/30.

 

[db1959]

Wait, you only bought one? Get with it man and get a couple more!

(I thought one would be enough. Was I ever wrong)

 

[Bskurt]

My son is really interested in getting a Mosin. Where is the best place to get one?

 

[INyooper]

Welcome to the club ...with a menacing pike included! A friend of mine has two and invited me to shoot one. I was somewhat hesitant, because I knew what would happen if I did.

 

[Que]

Wait, you are supposed to shoot these things?!

Welcome to the club ...with a menacing pike included!

Amazingly enough, I've misplaced my pike.

 

[Walter Zoomie]

Congrats and yes, they are cool as hell.

Mosins are cheap to own and shoot, plentiful, indestructible, and built like tanks. I love my Garand, but it is almost none of these things.

I thoroughly enjoyed cleaning and refinishing the two Mosins I bought for my sons from Indy Trading Post.

Wonderful pieces of history, I can't help but think about where they have been, what they have done, and whose hands held them.

I want one now...

I took 5 shots, but knew after only the first one that I had to have one ASAP!

 

[tgallmey]

welcome to the club they are addicting i got 3 ones a hex thats beautiful a m44 and a project 91/30 I wonder if you order 4 do you get the wooden crate (twitch twitch)

 

[Plinker]

Glad I could help nudge you over the fence. I'm already thinking about a 2nd one, maybe one in not so good of shape that I can sporterize. I want to leave my 'nice' one as a historical piece (that I fire often with iron sights).

Now if only we can find a few hundred thousand friends with Mosins and Mausers, we can re-enact the battle of St. Petersburg...

 

[IndyGunner]

Ill probably end up buying one next semester. Put an ati stock on it and polish it up smooth... mmmm.... 7.62X54

Those, as well as the M38's, are getting harder to find.

I was hooked after 2 shots. Citronman1980 let me shoot his and I was hooked.

 

[sgreen3]

All it takes is one shot, Then your officaly infected! Then before you know it you have more than you can shoot...... Nah you can never have to many Mosin's Nice looking 91/30 Congrats!

 

[edsinger]
