The ultimate Mosin Nagant action rifles were made in Finland. All the receivers were old, US or russian manufactured. Barrels , sihgts and stocks were Finnish produced.
Снайперских винтовок Мосина не изготовила не одна страна в мире.Только СССР!!! И только снайпера СССР были лучшими во времена Великой отечественной войны 1941-1945гг.Они работали до 1000м. И очень успешно!!!
We have all seen at least a few smooth bore Mosins, both of my Mosins have rifling left on them,but when I see a smooth bore it’s cool because that’s its own story.
Great talk. just one thing is that Tokarev seems to shoot a 307/308 projectiles instead of a .311-312 as mosin do. Even they are all "7.62mm". I don't have a nagant revolver, so I can't have any comment on that. But my TT33 surely shoot a 307 projectiles. I am not sure if I m correct or not, just need to find out.
Love Mosins but other than the 2 Finnish I own I have yet to get one to shoot worth a crap. I average 6 inch group at 100 yards. I shoot the military service rifle matches and have shot many 1 1/2 to 2.0 groups at 100 yards with Swedish, Swiss and 03A3 rifles.
I am interested in what the twist rates are. Specifically, looking to get my first mosin, dated 1897. I am trying to figure out the best bullet weight to shoot. Looks like 7.62x 54r come in 125g to 180g. Guess I just have to try them all.
Start with solvent on the barrel to get oil and fouling out. Because of the corrosive ammo finnish with warm soapy water for the barrel. The salts they used in the primers was so corrosive warm water dissolve those salts. Clean the chamber, bolt face and barrel with this technique. The rest of the rifle can be cleaned like any other. Remember to clean it after every time you shoot and don't wait long because corrosion can set in quickly and destroy the rifling. If you use modern non corrosive amm clean it like any rifle. All surpluses ammo is corrosive for these rifles.
Enjoyed, don’t listen to the negative comments
ART of tolking too much .
Very good explanation! Thank you for the this channel.

Самые лучшие винтовки и карабины Мосина изготовлены в России и СССР!!!

Yes and No.
@@МихаилКостарев-г8м I must agree with this. Not every Mosin is made equal but the best are surely made in the USSR.

Lol, just got one and ooooof there's an intense difference in mine , I payed way to much for it 🤣😪
Man I get so much info off this chanel thanks
Thanks for another fine video Big Sam.
Excellent video! I'll have to check my collection........I'd appreciate a long vid on counter-bored Mosins as well. Thanks again!!! Cheers!!!!
Have you considered doing a video demonstrating how to install the accurizing kit? There are a few out there but the camera angles are not great.
Dang it. Back to the safe to check the M38.

My 1943 mosins bore looked like a sewer because i think they had shot corrosive ammo. Now there is pitting in the barrel but the outside looks good
Excellent video Big Sam!
I noticed the PPU Mauser ammo in the background. Are Mauser in your collection?
Thank you Big Sam I
Thank you!

Thank you Big Sam
8mm is a really interesting caliber, all I can say is that we will take a look at it in the future! 😀
What about rifling to Right or Left and then the pitch number etc?

U should change your channel name to the Mosin Man U r so smart
Have you ever seen a M38 or M44 sniper? I imagine no M44 due to bayonet but a short m38 would make a handy rifle tbh. Did any country ever do that?
some 91/30s were cut down to carbines. perhaps you could get an ex sniper that was cut down... very unlikely i'd say
So my M1895 Revolver is a Mosin Nagant refurb?🤣
Takes too long to get to the point ! Still I did learn there are two types of rifling on Mosin Nagant barrels .
Don’t like to long vids. I’m out

So you're saying you don't have any patience for attention to detail? 😏

Later rifles are cold hammer forged like sks and ak
Alexander is actually in Ukraine, but yes he's full of knowledge
How do you clean, De-Cosmoline your Mosin Rifles?

Mineral Spirits and a lot of scrubbing.
