As someone who was born in the early 80’s I grew up on iron sights or hunting rifle scopes. Helped me growing up knowing nothing but irons or magnified scopes.

The people's Mosin doesn't actually need a flashlight, because it doesn't have a flash hider. And if the flash isn't being hidden, you can in fact harness it to own the night.

I think I built the most LARPing Mosin ever... Archangel stock, Timney trigger, heavy barrel, night vision scope, bipod, huge brake, and 10 round magazines. It was an otherwise destroyed Mosin, so nothing was lost.
I had a numbers matching yugo m48 in mint condition. Barrel is now 16”, stock is a mannlicher style, a $500 Leupold pistol scope is mounted where the rear sight was. Very nice rifle to shoot

Seeing a Mosin always reminds me of this old timer at my deer camp back in MI. He always used a bone stock Mosin. His deer blind overlooked a field so there were several times I saw him take deer beyond 200 yards with that old gun. He was a retired doctor so it’s not like he couldn’t afford a different rifle with a nice scope. Dude could just shoot the shit out of that Mosin so he never bothered changing.
I still deer hunt in Northern Michigan above the rifle line. I love smacking a deer at a few hundred yards with a milsurp rifle. *cue the happy feelings of nostolgia*
I had a "carbine" Mosin for a while maybe 15 years ago my first rifle. Ammo was cheap and plentiful, little fun elephant gun. I was told to not put a dime into it, wise advice.
The only dime you should have put was trigger jobs, polishing the firing pin, bolt, chamber, and glass bedding/shimming the receiver. Those mods alone make the rifle function smoothly without changing the rifle fundamentally.
@@DronesUnder2A If you want a good shooter, minor alterations are needed. Mosins, while more expensive than they used to be, are not a rare item. I'm talking about minor mods that do not alter the rifles appearance.
Needs to be beltfed as well! I would love to see a mosin, with a chonckers reciever and a manual bolt rocking that action. Offcourse it should have an optic.. which will obviously be at eye level when the rifle is hipfired
What is the benifit of having multiple stocks on a Mosin? How did you put multiple stocks on your Mosin? I want a multiple stock Mosin too! That would be so dope, one person shouldering the right side stock could operate the bolt and the person shouldering the left side stock could pull the trigger while the person shouldering the middle stock aims it. Multiple stock Mosins are the way to go!!! 🤙😂😂
You can see the top ports doing their job and yanking the muzzle down too. Not the greatest for precision when the barrel is being yanked around but it's nice to not get kicked sometimes.
The only thing this giga Chad mosin is missing is the pistol grip that can be screwed into the stock. Also I have the same recoil pad on my mosin and it helps tremendously just with the Length of Pull alone
Oh come now. Mosin recoil not that bad. Anyone who need recoil pad for 7.62x54r need to grow spine. Growing set of balls might help too, but they might just be tiny capitalist balls anyway, so why try? Short length stock help when you take squared shooting stance for modern tactical shooting with body armor. See now, they were thinking ahead back then. Might also help when Soviet soldier wears thick winter jacket, or smaller stature person but that just added bonus and not the reason as everyone knows Russians are big people. Anything saying otherwise is just product of Capitalist western propaganda machine.
The furnishing of a rifle can say a thousand words. In this case however, you only need "I just unlocked the flee market but I'm completely fucking broke".
I won the State High School pole vault championship using a Mosin with attached bayonet as my pole to vault with. Cleared 13'3" and faulted out at 1 4'. WTF? Sheeeit.
I put a muzzle brake on a mosin once. 3 rounds in it popped off because it drooped slightly...causing the round and the muzzle brake to sale down range. It was the best $20 ap round I ever put on my gun.
You forgot the other main reason that "The White Death" didn't use an optic... scope glint. He bagged several people because he saw the glint from the scope they were using... and he had no scope so no issue for him.
That's why the Marine Corps has a honeycomb end piece that goes on the muzzle-side of the ACOG. This diffracts any scope glint and also reduces lateral light that can obscure the objective.
@@ireilly2000 The ACOG is a tritium-powered all-condition combat optic designed for ranged and CQC engagements with bullet drop and distance estimate markers embedded.
Simo mostly had no scope cause you have to stretch your head out of a safe position to looks throught he scope. That´s why he picked up enemy snipers easily. He was lying all flat and picked them out before they could see him.
Remember when a nosin was about $80? Local shop has a few listed at $600+. Hits hard on those “I can’t sleep and thinking about what I’d do if I could go back in time”
Yeah, you'll see ones going for $300 on gunbroker with completely fucked bores, no rifling visible at all. Shit's nuts. You're better off going for a yugo/turkish/whatever else Mauser at this point, they can be found for cheaper than an average Mosin.
If you take an obrez, the bullet is just a by-product of the gun being a flamethrower. The goal isn't to hit someone with the shell, but to instead light the entire room on fire.

Honestly, I've seen worse Mosins. The bar is pretty dang low from the get go, but I've handled way less reliable and rougher cycling Mosins than the Gigachad there.
@@Wolf_Larsen There was one Mosin I found that was pretty good, it was a 1936 Tula. If the owner ever gets tired of it I might just make an offer on that one. But yeah, they're all pretty rough.
@@Wolf_Larsen I've owned 4 Mosins in my time and 1 was excellent never had an issue even 100+ rounds in a single session. Another 1 was really good but not perfect. The other 2 would seize up after they got heated. The point is clearly a number of Mosins really are good rifles, maybe close to a hundred years has aggravated the problem.

As they say, “The Germans brought a hunting rifle, the English brought a battle rifle, the Americans brought a sporting rifle, and the Russians?…They brought a rifle”
@George Stuart that's a myth, funnily enough the Russians did arm their soldiers with rifles, sire there were situations where some units had guys without them due to Logistical issues like with any army. But for the most part they were armed
I think the finns dont get enough credit. The finish mosins and in particular the m39 are in my opinion the best bolt action rifle of ww2. Great sights, heavy but balanced, good trigger and accurate as all hell. I got a sako m39 shoots roughly 1.8 MOA on factory ammo. With hand loads its about 1.1-1.3 MOA. Have had 2 groups that were .9 MOA but i think that was luck. Its hard to tell when you are using open sights.
@Steve Sin I disagree with it being the best bolt action rifle, I would argue the Lee Enfiled No.4 is due to its sturdier nature, its mythical reliability, an extra 5 rounds in the mag as well as being accurate enough for the average soldier. Finnish mosins 100% were rhe best mosins and were excellent rifles, probably more accurate than the lee-enfiled by a small margin too
A long eye relief scout style optic would probably make the giga Chad a lot more useful; you could use the stripper clips to take advantage of the extra ammo and remove the bolt handle clearance/extraction issue while still maintaining its tactitard greatness.
its due the angle of the handle. The straight and angled down vertically bolt handles allow for more leverage. Also most modified bolt assembles are just cobbled together without inspecting the mating surfaces of the bolt face and the bolt handle. I've done that with all of my mosins and i've never had a sticky case. You gotta remember when these rifles went back to the depots in ukraine they were all taken apart thrown into bins and assembled then mothballed. Using what ever was good enough. Inspecting the rifles and treating them as needing set up each time gets you better results.
I swear that intro was my entire childhood when dealing with a mosin. Absolutely had a bubba mosin in many different forms over the years. However, that music, the pauses when the bolt gets stuck, is exactly how I remember teenager me shooting one.
I feel like you tried playing off forgetting that holding the trigger while sliding the bolt back would remove the bolt instead of resetting the trigger. Either way, well played.
And it looks like distributing said weight in any sane fashion was not an engineering concern of the giga-chad that strapped all that unnecessary and flagrant kit to their "boom stick". I guarantee they used that term. Guarantee.
The sheer absurdity of the GC mosin will likely haunt my dreams for a few days at least, and a few years at most. I’m both glad you did this, yet perturbed, at the same time. Thank you and please, never do this again. (Unless you dive in the deep end: add a 203, a pair of truck nuts, and/or a pikachu hand stop to this abomination.)
I love the tracksuit. Absolute classic russian uniform. I knew a royal marine recce trooper who said that the SVD Dragunov was his most favourite long gun. Never seen a mosin nagant tested though. Only in metal gear snake eater.
I had the same thought, and mentioned it in my comment too lol! It’s just too long, and probably weighs more than it needs to. Who’s going to put that much $ into a Mosin anyway lol?!? With all of that gear, it must be a $3000 Mosin lol!
You can mount a red dot or a forward mount "scout" scope easy enough by removing the adjustable rear sight and exposing the welded on grove underneath and mounting on a short piece of picatinney rail without damaging the rifle. It will also not interfere with the stock bolt.
About that, do you have any idea how to correct the horizontal of the rail ? I have a red dot aimpoint on it, vertical is well aligned but the horizontal make me shoot right when i look left...
That is so funny and so true. It's kind of like how people are doing things now on skateboards and motorcycles that they never would have thought of when the games came out years ago.
@@tomisamish oh we did, we were even blessed by the kremlin with a precious can of wd40 in our kit. It still took two of us 15 minutes to beat it open again.
@@Ntmoffi I bedded the action on my 91/30. Polished the bolt on a buffing wheel. Sub moa with surplus ammo. Once i start reloading for it I'll be hunting with it out to 300 meters
Its really quite funny, when Mosin nagants were 89$ they were instantly called garbage rods and trash. Now that they are 400+ some alot more. They are good guns.
Well, even back in the 90s there was a bit of prejudice. Thinking it was some commie Soviet trash. People more experienced with the gun wouldn't have such an opinion, however.
@@alaljarensi6990 yeah... now it's seen as "Imperial-Commie, Russian trash" Kidding... brother of mine got his first Russian Mosin the other day, a 43' Ishevsk (butchered name). Matching rifle and all that, nice gun for a mosin...
First off, I NEED that track suit! Another observation is that with the recoil pad on the GigaChad Mosin you cannot crush skulls with the butt of the rifle.
Legend has it that since this gun was built, Sergei Mosin has been spinning in his grave so hard, the Russians have harnessed him as their primary source of energy.
I found the M38 carbine with heavy ball, off the bench to be a good trainer for a African Elephant Rifle. A M44 carbine wasn’t near as bad being 1.5 pounds heavier. My M44 works ok with brass cases…. But dispite extended chamber cleaning, is a be-otch with steel case to work the bolt.
Growing up I had a sporterized Mosin to learn shooting higher caliber rifles. My father brought it back from WW2 and gave it to my uncle for hunting. In that time they took the moving bolt handle and bent it back and down diagonally to accompany the stock scope. I never got to use the scope but have thought of getting one for my recent one. And frankly the regular bolt, having the bolt handle bent backwards and down into a diagonal fashion actually gave the gun a cleaner motion when reloading as when you slid your palm upfront the trigger guard. But besides that, yes... just give me a fudging Mosin. It's beautiful as it is. Any upgrade needed has been done, and it's just based around the ammo; SVT, SVD, or anything else lol. And never take away your strip clips, with a Mosin you can make about 10 clean shots in a tight group in under 30 seconds.
You know, there are cantilever scope mounts that would eliminate that big chunk of aluminum hanging 2 inches over the breech. Even flipping this one around would give you a little bit of space for cases to extract. But then again, this is about the most Bubbafied tacti-turd of a rifle I've ever seen. It's so much worse than the Archangel stock that I'm actually impressed.
ive got a vintage pachmayr lo swing mount on my turk 1903 mauser, and have it locked down swung the the side, as a ww1 esque side mounted scope. works great, since my right eye sucks, and it has a straight bolt.
And replace that scope with a scout scope model that gives much more eye relief, mount it further forward of the action and lower as well. Poor optic and mount selection.
While such utterly cursed modifications hurt my eyes, i cant help but wonder how well a mosin would perform if made with as high of a manufacturing standart as possible. just to see the performance it´d have.
Bought an M44 Mosin carbine 20 years ago. $85 for gun and a couple hundred rounds. I did a JB weld bedding job on it for fun. I can pretty reliably hit a tide bottle at 400 with the right ammo. i know exactly where 400 yards is on the sight setting. The carbines make really nice fireballs at dusk with machine gun loads.
If your mosin gets sticky bolt after firing, you my friend, still have Soviet space goop remaining in the chamber. Also, mosin sniper reloading. Turn rifle upside down, open mag floor plate, drop 5 rounds in, close floor plate, continue destroying Nazis
Now I need to see the next time you win a bet with Brandon a "Giga" Krink. It would need at least the list below. - Suppressor - 10 inch 1:8 twist barrel if possible - A reversed Romanian dong handguard - An underfolder stock that would probably collide with the handguard - Find a way to mount the biggest bayonet possible - Tactical side scope mount for picatinny weaver rail - A single point bungee sling - Whatever optics and lights you want

The entire concept of a muzzle brake being so aggressive that it turns into a thruster has me cracking up
for adding more power into a bayonet stab
You really can see that thing actually try to pull forward with every shot. It's quite something to witness.
You can see the top ports doing their job and yanking the muzzle down too. Not the greatest for precision when the barrel is being yanked around but it's nice to not get kicked sometimes.
1:33 "Heels on ground, a comrade is found."
The only thing this giga Chad mosin is missing is the pistol grip that can be screwed into the stock. Also I have the same recoil pad on my mosin and it helps tremendously just with the Length of Pull alone
It's missing the bayonet! Come on!
except whenyou mount an LPVO to it when it fucks up your eye relief. lol
@@EfftupSmith it's a mosin, you don't need scopes 😄
Oh come now. Mosin recoil not that bad. Anyone who need recoil pad for 7.62x54r need to grow spine. Growing set of balls might help too, but they might just be tiny capitalist balls anyway, so why try? Short length stock help when you take squared shooting stance for modern tactical shooting with body armor. See now, they were thinking ahead back then. Might also help when Soviet soldier wears thick winter jacket, or smaller stature person but that just added bonus and not the reason as everyone knows Russians are big people. Anything saying otherwise is just product of Capitalist western propaganda machine.

This is the literal definition of the phrase "less is more."
You forgot the other main reason that "The White Death" didn't use an optic... scope glint. He bagged several people because he saw the glint from the scope they were using... and he had no scope so no issue for him.
That's why the Marine Corps has a honeycomb end piece that goes on the muzzle-side of the ACOG. This diffracts any scope glint and also reduces lateral light that can obscure the objective.

@@ireilly2000 The ACOG is a tritium-powered all-condition combat optic designed for ranged and CQC engagements with bullet drop and distance estimate markers embedded.
Simo mostly had no scope cause you have to stretch your head out of a safe position to looks throught he scope. That´s why he picked up enemy snipers easily. He was lying all flat and picked them out before they could see him.
He was geting more exp for noscope's 👍
Remember when a nosin was about $80? Local shop has a few listed at $600+. Hits hard on those “I can’t sleep and thinking about what I’d do if I could go back in time”
Yeah, you'll see ones going for $300 on gunbroker with completely fucked bores, no rifling visible at all. Shit's nuts. You're better off going for a yugo/turkish/whatever else Mauser at this point, they can be found for cheaper than an average Mosin.
I'd argue the carbine had a flashlight too... That fireball it threw when testing the recoil between the 2 would light up 3 counties at night
If you take an obrez, the bullet is just a by-product of the gun being a flamethrower. The goal isn't to hit someone with the shell, but to instead light the entire room on fire.

I’m pretty sure Adolf Hitler said that too dr mangler
As they say, “The Germans brought a hunting rifle, the English brought a battle rifle, the Americans brought a sporting rifle, and the Russians?…They brought a rifle”
so true
More like the Russians brought one rifle for every 4 men
@George Stuart that's a myth, funnily enough the Russians did arm their soldiers with rifles, sire there were situations where some units had guys without them due to Logistical issues like with any army. But for the most part they were armed
I think the finns dont get enough credit. The finish mosins and in particular the m39 are in my opinion the best bolt action rifle of ww2. Great sights, heavy but balanced, good trigger and accurate as all hell. I got a sako m39 shoots roughly 1.8 MOA on factory ammo. With hand loads its about 1.1-1.3 MOA. Have had 2 groups that were .9 MOA but i think that was luck. Its hard to tell when you are using open sights.
@Steve Sin I disagree with it being the best bolt action rifle, I would argue the Lee Enfiled No.4 is due to its sturdier nature, its mythical reliability, an extra 5 rounds in the mag as well as being accurate enough for the average soldier. Finnish mosins 100% were rhe best mosins and were excellent rifles, probably more accurate than the lee-enfiled by a small margin too
A long eye relief scout style optic would probably make the giga Chad a lot more useful; you could use the stripper clips to take advantage of the extra ammo and remove the bolt handle clearance/extraction issue while still maintaining its tactitard greatness.
Yes...with a Brass Stacker mount...I'm looking at a (IIRC) Burris 1-7 LER scope on one of my M44s
I was wondering if the GC Mosin could get a cheek riser
It's not a perfect solution, but how about a QD mounted scope? Take it off, drop in your stripper clip, pop it back on and be done.
@@cbroz7492 I have a very similar setup and actually makes a decent deer and plinking gun
@@VX300 how about a red dot and a magnifier? then you could flip the magnifier out the way to clear the loading chamber? Maybe?
I love how he can cycle the unmodded straight handle mosin easier and faster than the modded-monstrosity
its due the angle of the handle. The straight and angled down vertically bolt handles allow for more leverage. Also most modified bolt assembles are just cobbled together without inspecting the mating surfaces of the bolt face and the bolt handle. I've done that with all of my mosins and i've never had a sticky case. You gotta remember when these rifles went back to the depots in ukraine they were all taken apart thrown into bins and assembled then mothballed. Using what ever was good enough. Inspecting the rifles and treating them as needing set up each time gets you better results.
That stock bolt has a nice ASMR quality 🙂
Another reason for “nyet, rifle is fine”
"Unfortunately, Brandon Herrera is friends with my camera guy"
*camera guy giggles in the background*
🤣🤣🤣
I swear that intro was my entire childhood when dealing with a mosin. Absolutely had a bubba mosin in many different forms over the years. However, that music, the pauses when the bolt gets stuck, is exactly how I remember teenager me shooting one.
The camo track suit 🤣. I love this channel.
I feel like you tried playing off forgetting that holding the trigger while sliding the bolt back would remove the bolt instead of resetting the trigger. Either way, well played.
Yeah, no doubt. "trigger stuff, oh and it breaks down easy..."
Thats the joke.
"The recoil pad breaks the aesthetic of the rifle". Yeah, but for that recoil pad, this thing is a work of effin' art.
Can’t wait to hear Brandon Herrera talk about this monstrosity

I would've given a point to the regular Mosin for wieldiness and subtracted a point from the Gigachad for weight.
I had the same thought, and mentioned it in my comment too lol! It’s just too long, and probably weighs more than it needs to. Who’s going to put that much $ into a Mosin anyway lol?!? With all of that gear, it must be a $3000 Mosin lol!
Gigachads don't care about weight.
You can mount a red dot or a forward mount "scout" scope easy enough by removing the adjustable rear sight and exposing the welded on grove underneath and mounting on a short piece of picatinney rail without damaging the rifle. It will also not interfere with the stock bolt.
About that, do you have any idea how to correct the horizontal of the rail ?

Люблю Ваш канал ,и было бы приятно читать русские субтитры !все просто супер ,от души благодарю)
Legend has it that since this gun was built, Sergei Mosin has been spinning in his grave so hard, the Russians have harnessed him as their primary source of energy.
That must be why they can sell us so much oil
I’m sure Émile Nagant is also rolling in his grave, alongside his brother Léon.
I found the M38 carbine with heavy ball, off the bench to be a good trainer for a African Elephant Rifle. A M44 carbine wasn’t near as bad being 1.5 pounds heavier. My M44 works ok with brass cases…. But dispite extended chamber cleaning, is a be-otch with steel case to work the bolt.
Growing up I had a sporterized Mosin to learn shooting higher caliber rifles. My father brought it back from WW2 and gave it to my uncle for hunting. In that time they took the moving bolt handle and bent it back and down diagonally to accompany the stock scope. I never got to use the scope but have thought of getting one for my recent one. And frankly the regular bolt, having the bolt handle bent backwards and down into a diagonal fashion actually gave the gun a cleaner motion when reloading as when you slid your palm upfront the trigger guard. But besides that, yes... just give me a fudging Mosin. It's beautiful as it is. Any upgrade needed has been done, and it's just based around the ammo; SVT, SVD, or anything else lol. And never take away your strip clips, with a Mosin you can make about 10 clean shots in a tight group in under 30 seconds.
oh hey it's a super modified mosin nagant! oh shit, wait, it looks like a weapon that could be in stalker games lol

You know, there are cantilever scope mounts that would eliminate that big chunk of aluminum hanging 2 inches over the breech. Even flipping this one around would give you a little bit of space for cases to extract. But then again, this is about the most Bubbafied tacti-turd of a rifle I've ever seen. It's so much worse than the Archangel stock that I'm actually impressed.
ive got a vintage pachmayr lo swing mount on my turk 1903 mauser, and have it locked down swung the the side, as a ww1 esque side mounted scope. works great, since my right eye sucks, and it has a straight bolt.
And replace that scope with a scout scope model that gives much more eye relief, mount it further forward of the action and lower as well. Poor optic and mount selection.

I can pretty reliably hit a tide bottle at 400 with the right ammo. i know exactly where 400 yards is on the sight setting. The carbines make really nice fireballs at dusk with machine gun loads.
