Haters have the ghey. That's some awesome work. If he used a 91/59 and it's stock (I'm going by the rear sight) it's inexcusable butchery. The stocks were purpose made for the 91/59 with a different length hand-guard than a M38 or M44. 91/59s are pretty thin on the ground. They were the pinnacle of the issue Mosin carbines with better fit and finish, smooth actions and much better triggers. They are almost as good as a Finn Mosin after they worked on them. Even if the metal is OK (looks to be) the proper stocks are unobtanium unless you make one out of a 91/30 stock. There is one on GunPorker bid up now for over $400.00 not counting shipping and possible transfer cost. http://www.gunbroker.com/item/572599619 Stick to carving trolls out of logs with a chain saw.

Lol sweet. Now throw it up on GB with some interesting, yet far-fetched, backstory and get phat stacks, yo. It was used by a mysterious, feared communist in WW2 named "Krokodil." He killed Germans by stealthily emerging from puddles, pulling them in & rolling while shooting underwater. 87,000 confirmed kills on that gun. |

Look at it this way, the rest of them just got a little more valuable. Not bad, OP. Just make sure you record your experience if you ever try to sell that to a LGS. |
