I got my C&R a few months ago and have not yet put it to use. I know very little about firearms from this time period. I'm looking at getting a Mosin Nagant. What should I look for? What model? 91/30? M38? M44? Hex? One of each? School me. I would also consider other rifles in the 7.62x54 and x51 calibers, but the price of the Nagants is what has me interested.
Thanks |

Thanks Well, they're drying up now. Most of the Hex, M44 & M38's are gone. Classic Arms has 91/30 sinipers, 91/59's, and regular 91/30's in stock. http://classicarms.us/ Just spend any money you have on These, plus a Russian Capture K98, a Yugo M24/47, and SKS while they last. The future of the C&R market looks bleak; supplies of all C&R long arms is drying up, and you should pick these guns up before they disappear from the market forever. |

About the only place to get a 91/M59 now is Classic. I would get one of these if you want something different than a 91/30.
Otherwise AIM, SOG, and J&G still have 91/30s. I would get the odd ones first laminated stock & hex reciever. J&G and SOG still have these. There isn't much difference between a round and a hex reciever, other than the fact one is round and the other is squared off or hex. There aren't as many hex and I like the looks of them. I also like the looks of the laminated stocks. Centerfire still has 7.62x54r 440rds for $79.99. |
