Tom Muse I so regret trading my 91/30. I love the fact that it is basically indestructible and packs a hell of a punch. You’ll definitely be able to drop a buck with that round. I once heard a man say “that made this gun when men were men and women were too” when talking about the Mosin Nagant

Tom Muse yeah I’d like to get my hands on a Finnish Mosin one day. I am currently looking into a Mauser 98 or a Type 99 but shortly after I’ll definitely be looking for another Mosin. The ammo is so cheap that I don’t go broke on range day lol. And 1 inch groups is pretty damn good for a “garbage rod”

Berettas are so underrated. My first handgun was a 96 and I love it I still carry it. Never jams and I feel like I can hit the tip of a pin with the sights
When I was stationed at Long Beach Naval base in the mid 80's there was a gun shop in Pasadena that was selling refurbished Mauser C96's in 9mm. they salesman took me in the back for a tour where they were refurbishing and all. He let me take my pick. I bought two for $350 apiece. I later got a detachable stock that served as the holster. Later I found a leather Holster for the whole thing. Wish I still had those but hard times suck.
The 92FS Beretta is my absolute favorite pistol of all time! I now own 7 of 'em! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on the Beretta. It fits my hand like no other! Still my everyday carry, and I have never had a jam or misfire on my 92s EVER! I now own everything from Glocks to XDs to M&Ps to Desert Eagles to Sigs...and yes, I still carry my 92! Appreciate your videos!
Hold and fire a pistol before you buy I held an airsoft glock and it felt like i was holding a cold penis. Just not my style. 92fs is my personal favorite.
Artemis Arrow now you’re ready to crawl around air vents. Can’t go wrong with a Glock, they’re reliable and affordable and accurate! But the m9/92fs is damn sexy. And also reliable and accurate!
I love my 92FS. It was my first handgun and I chose it because it fit my oversized hands just perfect and the price was right. I have since bought many more handguns but my trusty old 92FS is still among my all time favorites.
I'm quite fond of my 92A1. Bought it after i left the service because i carried one through most of my time in the Army. Haven't had any issues out of it at all.
Churchhill's Story hits home to Me after 65 year's I have a bad shoulder and need to use other Hand for shooting. Got to accept it and work on markmandship with Right hand!!! ☺😎

@@jordanferguson4158 The props department had access to tons of WWII and WWI type guns and reproductions, that is why pretty much all guns in Star Wars are based on firearms from that era.
Jordan Ferguson Yep, Han Solo's blaster (and also the one used by Luke Skywalker in Empire) was made from a Mauser C96. The Stormtrooper blasters were built from Sterling SMGs. Both were fitted with old WWII tank scopes to act as their optics. Most Star Wars props (at least for the OT) were cobbled together from random pieces of tech. Hell, part of Obi-Wan's lightsaber is a rifle grenade.
I also used my 92FS at my cwp range qualification and also hit 100%. That combined with the fact that I've had zero malfunctions makes it my favorite pistol out of all that I've owned...but my new 1911 is really starting to give it a run for its money!
I bought my first 2 gun's in 1981 when I was stationed at Dyess AFB, TX ....A Colt AR-15 SP1 and a Colt 1911 series 70 MK IV!!....hey my son's name is Alex C.!!
Good video. I do think however that the Mosin Nagant 91/30 is a decent enough rifle though. Being had for as little as $100 and ammunition readily available is a great combination for budget shooters, new gun men etc to get out there and develop and/or hone marksmanship. Sure, this comment is only worth $.02 but I just felt compelled to defend the humble Mosin.
Over here in switzerland its the k11 (karabiner 11) or the k31 witch you can get for around 30.- till 100.- but you are still able to headshot a target in 300 meters (or 328,028 yards) easily... Very relaiable and precise..
Absolutely beautiful video. I don't really know why, but I could feel the emotions flowing. Maybe it was something in your voice showing your true connections to these beloved firearms. I sir, am to one to love the simple tools we call firearms. Thank you for making this.
Glad I came across this video. I used to love shooting, but got out of it some time ago. This year, I have purchased four guns, including a Ruger 10/22 and a Marlin Model 60, and for the first time ever have gotten interested in handguns. In fact, I sold my Swedish Mauser earlier this year and used the money to purchase my first handgun. As the lead safety officer for a state history organization, I've regularly worked with reproduction muskets and rifles for 20 years, but I'm happy to have gotten back into modern firearms.
I bought my VZ-24 Mauser '98 (1939 manufacture) in 2002 for $75. My brother bought a Swedish Mauser '96 (1916 manufacture if I remember right) for about $100 in 2001. I replaced the barrel on mine, while he actually cut 6" off the original Swedish barrel and re-crowned it, and was getting the same or better accuracy, it was remarkably well made and preserved. I've heard prices have gone up, even in 2002 they weren't $20 but $75, not sure where they're at today. I don't like the cock on close of the '96, but the '98 is definitely a great rifle with a TON of customization options available, harder to find '96 parts
I wish they still let us have a gun range at summer camp even if it was strictly 22 only now you get arrested for having a spent 22 shell on you at day camp
Arrested for having a spent shell?!? Where are you, Jersey? Wow, that sucks. I've found spent casings before in my jacket pocket, car, pants cuffs, etc. I'm NEVER going to Jersey...
I mean, we had a .22 range at my boy scout camp, but the more often used range was the BB gun one. Though, to be fair, that was mostly because they limited us on how many rounds we could use on the real gun range.
and so again you have made quite an impression on me with your video talent..The combination of being informative and your calming voice works great..! What ever you do keep this up.
Thank you neighbor! I'm in the DFW area as well and we share some similar tastes. I'm fond of my AR15, my model 92 and M96 Carl Gustov Mauser. Sweden made up for the lack of a large ring action with superb Swedish steel. I have visited gun smiths on 2 occasions and found them sporterizing M96 actions into custom hunting rifles.
The mosin was my gateway drug, I remember walking out of the shop with it, while I had a spam can of surplus ammo waiting at home. I wouldn't call it a "garbage rod" but there are definitely better options for more money. But as a starter for a historic firearms collection, it's perfect.
beretta 92 is my fav pistol in world, if i could only bring one firearm i would pick my beretta over any of my long arms, thats how much faith i have that weapon if my life depended on it.
@@TheDiameter your objectively dumb, i recall asking anyone's opinion, theres variables you dont consider b/c ppl cant think that far ahead, like how much weight ammo adds to your pack, and yeah concealment is a concern for me, it matters a lot. and if your life depends on it, it best to use what your familiar and comfortable with instead of.."i want that one cuz its big and i saw John Wick with one on tv"
I dunno man, I've got a 1942 Izhevsk M91/30, and it's pretty accurate, not to mention the surplus ammo is supersonic... Grouping for me is pretty tight. Going to test it against a Yugo M48A, but take into account what Vasili Zaitsev and other Russians did with the rifle. Also, it won't cost you a dislike with me, everyone has their opinions on guns, that and I enjoy your videos! Keep 'em coming.
I have the exact same Mosin in the same year, and it is an amazing gun, never had any problems with it, especially the price I got it for, but hey, haters gonna hate lol
Very well done. No nonsense. I’ve owned a number of firearms and then sold many of them as having kids and being a student while working required this financially. No regrets…except my ruger 10/22. Every self-respecting firearm enthusiast should have one. When funds are there for guns again that’s the first thing on my to do list.
There aren't too many guns I was glad I paid the price to own them 1) H&K Mark 23 2) H&K marked MP5 variant 3) Browning Citori 4) H&K USP 5) Full/Mannlicher stock 10/22
7:06 It's good to see someone who knows how to run a bolt gun. I have always hunted with my 1903a3, always loved how smooth that action is. I always learned to keep the rifle shouldered while running the bolt.
Just when compared to other bolt actions they are pretty terrible. Not saying they are bad rifles because they get the job done (insert ww2 joke here) i like them but i would take a k98 or an enfield instead if i had the choice, UNLESS it was a finnish mosin because those things are fantastic
Katyusha Same here, but with a limit of only 200, it's what we could do, and the thing hits like a truck. Our steel targets would actually fly out of their mounts because of the power those rounds punched. Not even our 30-30 lever action could get a similar result
GamerBoysProductions I love the gun, it's just that other bolt action are far superior when compared to it. I don't think people should disrespect the mosin either with it's historical significance. Of course it isn't going to be a perfect rifle, the soviet union had to outfit millions of soldiers in a short space of time and they did the best they could with the resources they had available
GamerBoysProductions I reckon it's because he's american and likes to bash on the "dirty commies" but you got to give the gun some respect from a historical perspective. I don't think any other nation would be able to make over 30 million rifles in a space of 4 years and still have them come out in good enough condition for daily use and combat
I worked in the armory as a Marine in the 90s, the M-9 would come back to us constantly with cracked slides. I would say roughly 25% or more. This gave me a permanent bias against 9mm and Beretta. When the FBI changed over to.40, I cheered.
@@johns9652 The first 30k or so Berettas had incorrect heat treatment of the slide. They were starting to break down by the 90s but they resolved the problem. I bought mine in 1996 and you couldn't carry the ammo I've shot through it with no problems. Unfortunately it was designed for European service and all our wars are in sandy places so the open slide was an insurmountable problem.
North Florida Gun Guy you mean the kick. its not that bad. i mean it bruises my shoulder, kicks about as hard as a 12g with low brass ammo, and it has a metal but pad, but not particularly note wrothy.
I hate the kick, otherwise I love a mosin Nagant, they are accurate as hell and uses cheap ammo, odk I sold mine though and got a 260, it's a rare gun I guess. Idk I can never find ammo for it except a pawn shop, out of 3 other stores but I love the 260
i agree with most of your choices but I have to disagree with you on the Mosin Nagant as garbage . they may not be pretty but function quite well I hased one in a run and gun a M38 carbine which I borrowed from my brother. I agree with you about the C 96 mauser I happen to like the Luger better but i do understand on mechanical merits . but the C 96 and the luger is soo damn expensive its out of reach for 90% of us working guys. As Far as the Beretta goes i wasnt exposed to it till I was in the Navy then i liked it and bought one myself. My first gun was the Smith and Wesson model 10 in a 38 spl with a 6" BBl I wanted a Walther P-38 but Couldnt afford one now I have a P-1 which is my top 5 gun list . I am mostly a revolver guy . hey alex why no revolvers? Inquiring minds want to know ? Thanks
Hell for me it was the mosin nagant. I grew up shooting 22lr, but then all the Ammo started to dry up in 2012-2016. So for me, my 22lr WAS my mosin. I would buy the 880 round tins and just go plink all day with it while my 10/22 and mp15/22 collected dust.
K guys just imagine this: Alex saying "Good evening passengers, we'll be landing at our destination in about 3 hours, the weather is around 12 degrees Celsius, partly cloudy, I hope you're enjoying your flight, Thank you for choosing United Airlines." It fits well.
Gun regulations. Especially in countries like england. Its way much more easier in switzerland , but kinda hard in germany . Most people own one are only hunters. Mostly people from bavaria have them. Well and they are regulated pretty hard. You can just google gun laws in germany. We even need a small weapon licence for pepper sprays(arent allowed to sold as that is stores, usually animal defence sprays etc called) and those non-lethal gas pistols. Most accepted "weapon" sport is here maybe archery :/ And you can use them for hunting. Im not an expert but this is the stuff so 1-2 things might be wrong, its pretty hard to look into this stuff. The government kinda wants you to not own a gun :P :/
My steel frame taurus 856 is the best gun I've ever bought. One hole groups at 7 yards, 11 inch groups at 25 yards. From a $130 snubnose pocket gun. I've got two of them now, and I special ordered two more. Also found a nib .22tcm/9mm convertible 2011 for $500 and thats flawless if you load 16 instead of 17.
I've owned several different Berettas in the past and I'm glad to see the 92 get some love. Mine has a Hogue wrap around and I can honestly say it is the most comfortable firearm I've ever shot. My wife isn't a gun person but she likes my 92. Of course she said my AR was kind of fun too.
HI I really enjoy your videos very much but I politely disagree with you on the Mosin-Nagant rifles. I have 3 of them myself, a have a Finnish M-39 a Soviet 91/30, and a Carbine 38 they made not be the nicest, or the belle of the ball , but they work and work well, the ammo was cheap and plentifull. And I learned about Soviet weapons that they dont have to look pretty they just have to work.
I have 2 91/30s, a Russian M44 and Polish M44. They're all beautiful weapons. I got both M44's at the same time in 2018, and that started my milsurp addiction... Wish I had gotten addicted when I could have paid less than $200 for these things instead of $600+... :-(
LMFAO I didn’t know my rear AR15 sight had a little peep hole option!! Thanks for showing me lol been shooting for years owned this rifle for a long time never even realized it 🤦🏻♂️😂
My CZ 52 is one of my “I’ll never sell”guns. Dressed up with custom grips and a aftermarket slide release it shoots like a dream the “ rip thru anything” smoking 7.62 x 25 bottleneck cartridge. It’s very accurate, has NEVER jammed or malfunctioned in any way and if I had to I could probably pound nails into a two by four with this rock solid hunk of Soviet steel.
+TFB TV hey a mosin saved my friends life someone broke in with a pistol his mosin jammed so he clubbed the guy with it don't insult the shitty russian
You have such opposing views from literally everyone lol I love it... though I still will never buy into the claims that the Mosin Nagant is not good for the money you pay for it
Conner Williams the price today for one compared to say a k11 is night and day difference. My buddy has a m44 and my k11 is the same size and mines far more accurate it's faster and shoots nicer
@@SouthValleyKnifeCo agree. The prices are going up and they aren't worth it. When they were sub $100 they we're completely worth it. Hell, grabbed a nagant revolver for under $75 while I was at it.
The springfield 1903, M1917 rifle, Garand, lee einfield, MAS 36, Type 38 arisaka, type 99 arisaka, kar 98k, mauser 98, and every derivative of the muaser are better than than the mosin you filthy communist. Even the carcano is better.
@@COUNTERCOM Could you drag these guns through river rocks when tethered from a boat, and it still works? Probably, but with such expensive guns why would you? Therefore the mosin nagant is the best, you capitalist pigdog. Or I just have a bias because it's my first gun.
One of my big brothers loves guns (loves showing off his acquisitions, too), and I think he might appreciate this. You seem very capable and are wonderfully calm and straightforward about each weapon. That's nice. I'm no shooter and I have no desire to be...unless it's recreational archery, but you can believe I have no problem with the ones that are!
My first ever pistol was the M9. While I did shoot my mother’s Glock 28 and my father’s S&W M&P Shield, I despised how small the guns were. I loved how well the gun fit in my hands, I knew it was extremely reliable (with being a service pistol) and I preferred the external hammer, as opposed to striker-fired. Only regret that I have is that I didn’t get the A variant for the threaded barrel and tactical rails.
@@ballisticinc3538 I have seen mosins with good accuracy and why limit you self to one guns. I just want one of everything. Each gun has something to offer. The history of the mosin is as rich as any gun made and it has the longest battlefield record of any gun made as well they can still be seen in the middle east in use today. I enjoy my mosin as much as any gun I have just wish the ammo wasn't corrosive. Cleaning after every use is a pain.

mate handguns are not completely band we can have 22lr pistols we just have to have a stupid long barrel on it and a rod on the pistol grip wwe can also have 357 and 44 revolvers with the long barrel not all fire arms have to be a 100 years old either you can have a AR 15 just needs to be a straight pull 22lr semi auto rifles we can have two i have a 10/22 want to get a m&p 15-22 soon a 22lr AR
The C96, I believe, was also the model that they used to create Han Solo's blaster for the Original Trilogy.
Yep! It's the first gun fact I ever learned when I was a kid in the early 80's. :)
Yes, the ol' DL-44 in an illegal modification, because the Empire has an ATFE+BD (Blasters & Disintegraters) division.
The beretta 92 is a god damn work of art.
My top 5:
Remington 870
Glock 19
AR-15
S&W model 610 .357 revolver
AK-47
Thanks!
Berettas are so underrated. My first handgun was a 96 and I love it I still carry it. Never jams and I feel like I can hit the tip of a pin with the sights
When I was stationed at Long Beach Naval base in the mid 80's there was a gun shop in Pasadena that was selling refurbished Mauser C96's in 9mm. they salesman took me in the back for a tour where they were refurbishing and all. He let me take my pick. I bought two for $350 apiece. I later got a detachable stock that served as the holster. Later I found a leather Holster for the whole thing. Wish I still had those but hard times suck.
I have same feelings about 92FS.
I can see that.
Shot em in the navy. Accurate and reliable
Profile pic doesn’t relate huh?
The 92fs and full size glocks are the best pistols I’ve shot
6:14 all you need now is another receiver and you've got yourself two 10/22s
Thank you for giving the broom handle some love!
My mosin served me well in Stalingrad.
Awesome!
My M1 Garand served me well in Okinawa
@ my Yugo M70ab2 did well in Sarajevo
Christopher Marlowe obviously he is knows about guns he’s not a historian
My cannon served me well at the Alamo.
You’re a perfect gentleman. I enjoyed your stories. Thank you for sharing. Great video.
The AR-15 + the Beretta 92 are some of my favorite weapons.:)
Jody Thompson 😂. We had baretras in the Coast Guard. That thing would only make a half decent paperweight.
The 92FS is not for everyone. But for those who are able to handle it well, they'll praise it till the day they die. You either love or hate it
Beretta M9A3 is my favorite pistol. It is very similar to the 92.
Hated berettas and still do to this day. Every single one I've fired was super finicky and inaccurate.
so many people "love" weapons they've never seen, held, or shot.
Holy crap less that $20 gets you 500 rounds of .22lr now it's like $150
The 92FS Beretta is my absolute favorite pistol of all time! I now own 7 of 'em! Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts on the Beretta. It fits my hand like no other! Still my everyday carry, and I have never had a jam or misfire on my 92s EVER! I now own everything from Glocks to XDs to M&Ps to Desert Eagles to Sigs...and yes, I still carry my 92! Appreciate your videos!
Need one more for Preston the octopus
You know everyone was telling me to get a glock but something about the beretta's looks man
Hold and fire a pistol before you buy
I held an airsoft glock and it felt like i was holding a cold penis.
Just not my style.
92fs is my personal favorite.
TBH I don't like Beretta I like COLT M1911 A1
Just got the shiny Taurus pt92 9mm...
I actually own a beretta 92 now :)
Artemis Arrow now you’re ready to crawl around air vents. Can’t go wrong with a Glock, they’re reliable and affordable and accurate! But the m9/92fs is damn sexy. And also reliable and accurate!
".22lr is a Gateway Drug"
I want that shirt lol
I love my 92FS. It was my first handgun and I chose it because it fit my oversized hands just perfect and the price was right. I have since bought many more handguns but my trusty old 92FS is still among my all time favorites.
I'm quite fond of my 92A1. Bought it after i left the service because i carried one through most of my time in the Army. Haven't had any issues out of it at all.
the 92FS was my favorite pistol before service, during service, and now after.
Seriously, great video. It felt so genuine and emotional. I can tell you really love what you do.
Loved the Churchill story.
German engineering.
Churchhill's Story hits home to Me after 65 year's I have a bad shoulder and need to use other Hand for shooting. Got to accept it and work on markmandship with Right hand!!! ☺😎
You can always tell how deep his love goes for his firearms by just hearing how he talks about these five guns. He has a certain pride and appreciation for them that a lot of people will never understand.
Yup
You look like ur ready for a job interview in your profile picture (just joking on ya tho)
The Mosin nagant isn't garbage. How you described the Mauser is how I feel about the mosin. Can easily ring steel at 300 yards.
Bought my 92 SB back in 1991 and still own it. Love it!
I feel the same about the 92FS, It fits well, trigger is good, and controls are great. I shoot better with it than any other weapon.
Firs ar bought in 2006.
Yes. That broomstick foregrip tells us that
you are awesome thanks for including the Beretta M9/92FS in your list.
Han Solo would like that one.
I've heard George Lucas got the design of the blaster from the mauser, but that could just be rumor.
@@jordanferguson4158 I mean, it looks like one..
@@jordanferguson4158 The props department had access to tons of WWII and WWI type guns and reproductions, that is why pretty much all guns in Star Wars are based on firearms from that era.
Jordan Ferguson Yep, Han Solo's blaster (and also the one used by Luke Skywalker in Empire) was made from a Mauser C96. The Stormtrooper blasters were built from Sterling SMGs. Both were fitted with old WWII tank scopes to act as their optics. Most Star Wars props (at least for the OT) were cobbled together from random pieces of tech. Hell, part of Obi-Wan's lightsaber is a rifle grenade.
@@TheHat2 And I think the thing next to the pommel of Obi-Wans lightsaber also a part of a machine gun
I also used my 92FS at my cwp range qualification and also hit 100%. That combined with the fact that I've had zero malfunctions makes it my favorite pistol out of all that I've owned...but my new 1911 is really starting to give it a run for its money!
Me: "I wonder if he will mention a gun I own"
Also me: "Well...least he said garbage rod with a upbeat tone..."
*cried myself to sleep*
I bought my first 2 gun's in 1981 when I was stationed at Dyess AFB, TX ....A Colt AR-15 SP1 and a Colt 1911 series 70 MK IV!!....hey my son's name is Alex C.!!
Agreed on #2, love my Beretta 92 x G Series decocker only. Beautiful pistol
everything you said about the 92fs is right on the money!
Good video. I do think however that the Mosin Nagant 91/30 is a decent enough rifle though. Being had for as little as $100 and ammunition readily available is a great combination for budget shooters, new gun men etc to get out there and develop and/or hone marksmanship. Sure, this comment is only worth $.02 but I just felt compelled to defend the humble Mosin.
Over here in switzerland its the k11 (karabiner 11) or the k31 witch you can get for around 30.- till 100.- but you are still able to headshot a target in 300 meters (or 328,028 yards) easily... Very relaiable and precise..
orell93 I think your math is off for yardage lol
plum 420 lmao
Absolutely beautiful video. I don't really know why, but I could feel the emotions flowing. Maybe it was something in your voice showing your true connections to these beloved firearms. I sir, am to one to love the simple tools we call firearms. Thank you for making this.
"That c96 looks pretty sweet!" *looks up prices* "Nope not happening today"
EXACTLY. Now suddenly I need to have a 9mm c96.
This comment made me chuckle, the price is always that one thing that gets between you and a new firearm
Luckily for me, there is a chance I might inherit one.
When I grew up with my .22 I used ice as target practice. Practically a never ending source of it and it looks cool when it explodes lol.
Glad I came across this video. I used to love shooting, but got out of it some time ago. This year, I have purchased four guns, including a Ruger 10/22 and a Marlin Model 60, and for the first time ever have gotten interested in handguns. In fact, I sold my Swedish Mauser earlier this year and used the money to purchase my first handgun. As the lead safety officer for a state history organization, I've regularly worked with reproduction muskets and rifles for 20 years, but I'm happy to have gotten back into modern firearms.
When you talked during your Ruger .22, is the perfect for of gun control. You were tough the dangers of guns IF they were used wrong. Good job 👍🏻
I bought my VZ-24 Mauser '98 (1939 manufacture) in 2002 for $75. My brother bought a Swedish Mauser '96 (1916 manufacture if I remember right) for about $100 in 2001. I replaced the barrel on mine, while he actually cut 6" off the original Swedish barrel and re-crowned it, and was getting the same or better accuracy, it was remarkably well made and preserved. I've heard prices have gone up, even in 2002 they weren't $20 but $75, not sure where they're at today. I don't like the cock on close of the '96, but the '98 is definitely a great rifle with a TON of customization options available, harder to find '96 parts
I have a 105 years old Swedish Mauser and it shoots sub MOA groups still, Amazing quality!
Such a nice video. It's not technical blabbling and complaining about triggers and stuff, just a story about one guy enjoying what he likes.
I absolutely loved my beretta 92fs. Pains me to this day that it got stolen.
How it get stolen
I wish they still let us have a gun range at summer camp even if it was strictly 22 only now you get arrested for having a spent 22 shell on you at day camp
That's sad,, probably ain't allowed 2 shoot bow n arrow now either..
Tom Catt nah man we shoot bows in school
Arrested for having a spent shell?!? Where are you, Jersey? Wow, that sucks. I've found spent casings before in my jacket pocket, car, pants cuffs, etc. I'm NEVER going to Jersey...
Its the pussification of America a little at a time.
I mean, we had a .22 range at my boy scout camp, but the more often used range was the BB gun one. Though, to be fair, that was mostly because they limited us on how many rounds we could use on the real gun range.
and so again you have made quite an impression on me with your video talent..The combination of being informative and your calming voice works great..! What ever you do keep this up.
Most Very impressive, extremely clearly spoken made clear points. Very well done. Thank You for sharing.
I'm one of the 1400 people that love mosins, you had me the whole video up til tossing one in the garbage can, pitty.
He still owns one!
I’m with you friend. A rifle that has been soldiering for that long, shooting the 7.62x54 pounder is a long way from “garbage”.
Thank you neighbor! I'm in the DFW area as well and we share some similar tastes. I'm fond of my AR15, my model 92 and M96 Carl Gustov Mauser. Sweden made up for the lack of a large ring action with superb Swedish steel. I have visited gun smiths on 2 occasions and found them sporterizing M96 actions into custom hunting rifles.
"shooting a perfect score in the class"
XDD
The swedish mauser.... a very interesting and beautiful piece of history
The mosin was my gateway drug, I remember walking out of the shop with it, while I had a spam can of surplus ammo waiting at home. I wouldn't call it a "garbage rod" but there are definitely better options for more money. But as a starter for a historic firearms collection, it's perfect.
beretta 92 is my fav pistol in world, if i could only bring one firearm i would pick my beretta over any of my long arms, thats how much faith i have that weapon if my life depended on it.
That’s objectively dumb. A good AR or AK is better than ANY handgun outside of concealment.
@@TheDiameter your objectively dumb, i recall asking anyone's opinion, theres variables you dont consider b/c ppl cant think that far ahead, like how much weight ammo adds to your pack, and yeah concealment is a concern for me, it matters a lot. and if your life depends on it, it best to use what your familiar and comfortable with instead of.."i want that one cuz its big and i saw John Wick with one on tv"
I dunno man, I've got a 1942 Izhevsk M91/30, and it's pretty accurate, not to mention the surplus ammo is supersonic... Grouping for me is pretty tight. Going to test it against a Yugo M48A, but take into account what Vasili Zaitsev and other Russians did with the rifle.
Also, it won't cost you a dislike with me, everyone has their opinions on guns, that and I enjoy your videos! Keep 'em coming.
I have the exact same Mosin in the same year, and it is an amazing gun, never had any problems with it, especially the price I got it for, but hey, haters gonna hate lol
Very well done. No nonsense. I’ve owned a number of firearms and then sold many of them as having kids and being a student while working required this financially. No regrets…except my ruger 10/22. Every self-respecting firearm enthusiast should have one. When funds are there for guns again that’s the first thing on my to do list.
There aren't too many guns I was glad I paid the price to own them
1) H&K Mark 23
2) H&K marked MP5 variant
3) Browning Citori
4) H&K USP
5) Full/Mannlicher stock 10/22
Rusty Shackleford Ahhh Yes a fellow Heckler & Koch fan.
Love my Tula ex sniper Mosin, one of my favorite rifles I own.
7:06 It's good to see someone who knows how to run a bolt gun. I have always hunted with my 1903a3, always loved how smooth that action is. I always learned to keep the rifle shouldered while running the bolt.
Swedish mausers are tack drivers. I've owned several, and Regret getting rid of them, especially considering what I paid for most of them....😒
Just curious, why do you hate mosin nagants? My buddy and I love our mosin and is our favorite at the range
Just when compared to other bolt actions they are pretty terrible. Not saying they are bad rifles because they get the job done (insert ww2 joke here) i like them but i would take a k98 or an enfield instead if i had the choice, UNLESS it was a finnish mosin because those things are fantastic
Katyusha Same here, but with a limit of only 200, it's what we could do, and the thing hits like a truck. Our steel targets would actually fly out of their mounts because of the power those rounds punched. Not even our 30-30 lever action could get a similar result
GamerBoysProductions
I love the gun, it's just that other bolt action are far superior when compared to it. I don't think people should disrespect the mosin either with it's historical significance. Of course it isn't going to be a perfect rifle, the soviet union had to outfit millions of soldiers in a short space of time and they did the best they could with the resources they had available
Katyusha yep, but TFB really bashes on it. Did he have a bad experience?
GamerBoysProductions
I reckon it's because he's american and likes to bash on the "dirty commies" but you got to give the gun some respect from a historical perspective. I don't think any other nation would be able to make over 30 million rifles in a space of 4 years and still have them come out in good enough condition for daily use and combat
Absolutely agree with the Swedish Mauser. Plenty of power, soft on the shoulder, one of the world's few inherently accurate rounds.
Now that's what I called respect for the beretta 92 fs
I love my 96 FS.
Had 92fs issued to me in the army and had to get me one for personal carry will never get rid of it
I worked in the armory as a Marine in the 90s, the M-9 would come back to us constantly with cracked slides. I would say roughly 25% or more. This gave me a permanent bias against 9mm and Beretta. When the FBI changed over to.40, I cheered.
@@johns9652 The first 30k or so Berettas had incorrect heat treatment of the slide. They were starting to break down by the 90s but they resolved the problem. I bought mine in 1996 and you couldn't carry the ammo I've shot through it with no problems. Unfortunately it was designed for European service and all our wars are in sandy places so the open slide was an insurmountable problem.
92x G model is amazing and my favorite pistol as well
The Mosin in the trashcan put my side in orbit. Oh I love to hate that rifle.
North Florida Gun Guy you mean the kick. its not that bad. i mean it bruises my shoulder, kicks about as hard as a 12g with low brass ammo, and it has a metal but pad, but not particularly note wrothy.
North Florida Gun Guy the mosin doesn’t shoot good groups maybe two inches, but I still like them
I hate the kick, otherwise I love a mosin Nagant, they are accurate as hell and uses cheap ammo, odk I sold mine though and got a 260, it's a rare gun I guess. Idk I can never find ammo for it except a pawn shop, out of 3 other stores but I love the 260
Basic mosin’s go for $300 nowadays
Dude if you only get 2 inch groups at 1 meters, learn to shoot with the gun.
i agree with most of your choices but I have to disagree with you on the Mosin Nagant as garbage . they may not be pretty but function quite well I hased one in a run and gun a M38 carbine which I borrowed from my brother. I agree with you about the C 96 mauser I happen to like the Luger better but i do understand on mechanical merits . but the C 96 and the luger is soo damn expensive its out of reach for 90% of us working guys. As Far as the Beretta goes i wasnt exposed to it till I was in the Navy then i liked it and bought one myself. My first gun was the Smith and Wesson model 10 in a 38 spl with a 6" BBl I wanted a Walther P-38 but Couldnt afford one now I have a P-1 which is my top 5 gun list . I am mostly a revolver guy . hey alex why no revolvers? Inquiring minds want to know ? Thanks
No buddy the mosin is not good at all. It's very inconsistent and there are better options for barely any more money. Milsurp is trash 90% of the timd
Hell for me it was the mosin nagant. I grew up shooting 22lr, but then all the Ammo started to dry up in 2012-2016. So for me, my 22lr WAS my mosin. I would buy the 880 round tins and just go plink all day with it while my 10/22 and mp15/22 collected dust.
K guys just imagine this:
Alex saying
"Good evening passengers, we'll be landing at our destination in about 3 hours, the weather is around 12 degrees Celsius, partly cloudy, I hope you're enjoying your flight, Thank you for choosing United Airlines."
It fits well.
Alex should just provide voice for children audio books. Or perhaps a narrator.
The soothing voice is so good
Celsius? Why not freedom unit?
@@METX174 exactly wat I was thinking
"You know how everyone makes that one claim, now I'm gonna make that claim"lmfao loved the video though
Dude, you are well informed and helpful. The only top guns I own video i have enjoyed watching. Keep doing what you are doing!!!
The mosin is a great rifle. It’s accurate and always shoots.
Yes it is accurate but the action is utter garbage
Awww its always so nice to watch another tfb video... all these guns i cant buy...
...because i live in europe :(
why can't you buy them in Europe
Gun regulations. Especially in countries like england. Its way much more easier in switzerland , but kinda hard in germany . Most people own one are only hunters. Mostly people from bavaria have them. Well and they are regulated pretty hard. You can just google gun laws in germany. We even need a small weapon licence for pepper sprays(arent allowed to sold as that is stores, usually animal defence sprays etc called) and those non-lethal gas pistols. Most accepted "weapon" sport is here maybe archery :/ And you can use them for hunting. Im not an expert but this is the stuff so 1-2 things might be wrong, its pretty hard to look into this stuff. The government kinda wants you to not own a gun :P :/
My steel frame taurus 856 is the best gun I've ever bought. One hole groups at 7 yards, 11 inch groups at 25 yards. From a $130 snubnose pocket gun. I've got two of them now, and I special ordered two more.
Also found a nib .22tcm/9mm convertible 2011 for $500 and thats flawless if you load 16 instead of 17.
Also the Mauser C96 inspired the design of Han Solo's blaster
That alone is a great reason for owning a C96, just saying...
I stopped chewing my sammich when you started on the Moisin wild card...
My first AR was/is Rock River also. Got my first 10/22 in 68. Like you I also grew up in Dallas.
Where can I buy that “gateway drug” tshirt i love it 😂🙌🏽
The 92fs good choice my friend!
I've owned several different Berettas in the past and I'm glad to see the 92 get some love. Mine has a Hogue wrap around and I can honestly say it is the most comfortable firearm I've ever shot. My wife isn't a gun person but she likes my 92. Of course she said my AR was kind of fun too.
HI I really enjoy your videos very much but I politely disagree with you on the Mosin-Nagant rifles. I have 3 of them myself, a have a Finnish M-39 a Soviet 91/30, and a Carbine 38 they made not be the nicest, or the belle of the ball , but they work and work well, the ammo was cheap and plentifull. And I learned about Soviet weapons that they dont have to look pretty they just have to work.
I have 2 91/30s, a Russian M44 and Polish M44. They're all beautiful weapons. I got both M44's at the same time in 2018, and that started my milsurp addiction... Wish I had gotten addicted when I could have paid less than $200 for these things instead of $600+... :-(
LMFAO I didn’t know my rear AR15 sight had a little peep hole option!! Thanks for showing me lol been shooting for years owned this rifle for a long time never even realized it 🤦🏻♂️😂
Its for distance
My CZ 52 is one of my “I’ll never sell”guns. Dressed up with custom grips and a aftermarket slide release it shoots like a dream the “ rip thru anything” smoking 7.62 x 25 bottleneck cartridge. It’s very accurate, has NEVER jammed or malfunctioned in any way and if I had to I could probably pound nails into a two by four with this rock solid hunk of Soviet steel.
I'm just kidding those suck...
That will cost me some dislikes.
Worth it.
Nice try, you are just trying to lower prices of those guns! >:)
+TFB TV I love the Mosin but that line was delivered so well I had to laugh.
+TFB TV it got my like
+TFB TV I'm looking into getting an AR-15 and I just wanted to know if you have one you personally prefer
Damn, roasting the mosin XD
"Garbage rod"... I like it. Insulting, yet intelligent.
Yep. Business as usual.
+TFB TV hey a mosin saved my friends life someone broke in with a pistol his mosin jammed so he clubbed the guy with it don't insult the shitty russian
+Corban Rust that is one major positive, in a tense moment, the mosin can always be used as a club or javelin. :)
My dad own the same Swedish mouser and is the ride I learned to shoot with love its getting the recognition it deserves
You have such opposing views from literally everyone lol I love it... though I still will never buy into the claims that the Mosin Nagant is not good for the money you pay for it
Conner Williams the price today for one compared to say a k11 is night and day difference. My buddy has a m44 and my k11 is the same size and mines far more accurate it's faster and shoots nicer
@@SouthValleyKnifeCo agree. The prices are going up and they aren't worth it. When they were sub $100 they we're completely worth it. Hell, grabbed a nagant revolver for under $75 while I was at it.
You dare disrespect the mosin-nagant
The springfield 1903, M1917 rifle, Garand, lee einfield, MAS 36, Type 38 arisaka, type 99 arisaka, kar 98k, mauser 98, and every derivative of the muaser are better than than the mosin you filthy communist. Even the carcano is better.
@@COUNTERCOM Could you drag these guns through river rocks when tethered from a boat, and it still works? Probably, but with such expensive guns why would you? Therefore the mosin nagant is the best, you capitalist pigdog. Or I just have a bias because it's my first gun.
@@menghis7286 you could, all those guns are reliable but its not a good idea considering how expensive most of them are.
Garbage rod*
Cyka
One of my big brothers loves guns (loves showing off his acquisitions, too), and I think he might appreciate this. You seem very capable and are wonderfully calm and straightforward about each weapon. That's nice.
I'm no shooter and I have no desire to be...unless it's recreational archery, but you can believe I have no problem with the ones that are!
I want to buy a Luger P08
I wanted a luger. I put one mag through it and sold it. Ungainly and weird. The P38 though is a very cool pistol.
“Hey guys it’s Alex C from TFB TV” Me: “Aight imma head out”
My first ever pistol was the M9. While I did shoot my mother’s Glock 28 and my father’s S&W M&P Shield, I despised how small the guns were. I loved how well the gun fit in my hands, I knew it was extremely reliable (with being a service pistol) and I preferred the external hammer, as opposed to striker-fired.
Only regret that I have is that I didn’t get the A variant for the threaded barrel and tactical rails.
Wtf is wrong with the mosin Nagant
George Washingpun I had one it had issues with headspace
Idk I love my mosin nagant, idk why it gets hate
Very gritty stiff action, nonejecting stripper clips, terrible accuracy, and for the price they are now you can get a poverty AR.
@@ballisticinc3538 I have seen mosins with good accuracy and why limit you self to one guns. I just want one of everything. Each gun has something to offer. The history of the mosin is as rich as any gun made and it has the longest battlefield record of any gun made as well they can still be seen in the middle east in use today. I enjoy my mosin as much as any gun I have just wish the ammo wasn't corrosive. Cleaning after every use is a pain.
People hate it because they shoot crappy ammo in it. Spend a few bucks in reloading dies and reload yourself.
