Mosin Nagant Club

[Brick562]

Thanks Calguns Community,

I purchased my first Mosin Nagant. Actually, first I found some Yugo ammo that I could shoot, and then I bought a Mosin Nagant. Actually, I paid 100$ to be allowed to fill out an application, to be allowed to have a Mosin Nagant in 10 days.....

Either way, this has been one of my happiest purchases in a long while. Got a 1942 Tula with the normal accessories. Beautiful gun. Woods in good condition, lots o' cosmoline, clean metal, and it smells like WWII.

Can't wait to shoot it for the first time. It's been about 15 years since I've shot a rifle. And I think the last one was a .22.

Hopefully there are some group events for C&R's soon. Interested in shooting with y'all.

Nice! Where are you located? I'm sure a C&R shoot could be arranged with members near you.

Welcome and congrats!
One word of warning: they do get addicting!
(I bought my 1st back in June of this year and I own 4 (and counting)
Can't wait for you to post some pics.

Welcome, less than 2 months ago about 100 calgunners got together in the desert in so cal for a shoot http://www.calguns.net/calgunforum/s...d.php?t=455559 and it was a blast, I saw at least 20 Mosins there. Post your location and I am sure there is a Mosin owner close.

Welcome to the club my friend. Enjoy the east front goodness.

I just got my first one. Definitely not the last. I have yet to clean mine though. Might tackle it tomorrow. Gonna go the mineral spirit soak route.

Where did you get your Mosin? It's always good to hear where folks got good examples!

Congrats on your 1942 Tula! Can't wait to see pics and range report!!

...and it smells like WWII.

This suggests you're at least 66 years old.

At minimum.
