Here are my Mosins.

josiewales · March 12, 2013, 10:03 AM

I used to wonder why someone would have more than one mosin. Until I got mine. I would be hard to have to many mosins.

280shooter · March 13, 2013, 12:42 AM

I had a 03a3 traded it for my FN 49,, say almost 20 years ago.

VVelox · March 13, 2013, 11:16 AM

My lovely FR8 is pictured below. It is the first surplus gun I bought. I absolutely love the feel and handling of it.

Below is my Tula SKS-45.

josiewales · March 14, 2013, 11:37 AM

I love the dark finish on that sks!

I am envious of all of the beautiful rifles.I am so sorry that my father and I sporterized our DCM 03A3's back in the 60s after we paid the huge price of $15 each. Hindsight is always 20/20.

josiewales · March 20, 2013, 05:41 PM

Just got a new one! This is a Chatellerault MLE 1892 MAC 1935 French Lebel cavalry carbine. It is chambered in 8X57R Lebel(8mm Lebel). Very short and weighs 7 pounds.
En blocs are on the way and I'm bidding on ammo. If anyone has any 8mm Lebel they want to sell let me know .http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphoto...48255370_n.jpg

Hello friends and neighbors // Nice snag/save on the Lebel.

Bought my Hungarian Mosin because it has similar "spalted" wood, looks better to me at least, well done.

Just wondering about the bent bolt, is it set up for a scope? Or I guess because it is Calvary issue.

No that is just the way the 1892 cavalry carbines were.

Anybody know how much it is worth? I paid $100 at an auction Monday night for it.

gandog56 · March 20, 2013, 05:57 PM

Would need a wide angle lens...have 13 Mosin Nagants for example.

mf-dif · March 21, 2013, 09:21 PM

Cosmoline · April 30, 2013, 08:37 PM

Vegas--how did you get a scope mount on an M91?

gandog56 · May 16, 2013, 05:33 PM

My camera is on the fritz. But I have 12 Mosin Nagants, one Winchester 95 chambered in 7.65X54R for the Russians in WW I, 4 Mausers, ! K98, 2 M48's, and a M48-A, 3 Steyrs, an Austrian, a Hungarian, and a Bulgarian contract. Two M1 Garands, an SA and an HR.

Hello friends and neighbors // gandog56 /// The Winchester 95, would be outstanding in 7.62x54mmR.

Doug S · May 16, 2013, 07:58 PM

I don't have any stand alone pictures of my Milsurps, only a Man Cave picture. The first is an older one, but it shows more detail of the guns...

...the second is a more recent photo, but doesn't show the guns well, and is pretty washed out.

In the pictures (bottom picture from left to right)...

1942 Izzy Mosin Nagant 91-30, (on corner cabinet) 1939 Tula Nagant Revolver, 1943 BSA Shirley No4Mk1, 1944 Rockola M1 Carbine, 1944 Springfield Armory M1 Garand, 1939 Mauser K98, 1940 Type 38 Nagoya Arisaka, Series 1 (Probably early 40's Nagoya Type 99 Arisaka.

Dentite · May 17, 2013, 12:24 AM

Real nice man cave!

josiewales · May 17, 2013, 07:53 AM

Awesome guns and mann cave!

Doug S · May 17, 2013, 08:06 AM

Thanks, I appreciate the kind comments. I had a partially finished, unused room in my basement, and a bunch of collections boxed in closets. I figured I'd combine them and get some enjoyment out of them. I have a men's Bible study that meets in my house each week, and the "Man Cave" is a nice "masculine" setting for it, even if it freaks out a newbie every now and then (especially when they come in and catch us detail stripping a Glock or some other firearm minutes before the study begins.

Other collections in the room are fossils, Civil War artifacts, Native American artifacts, WWII newpapers framed on all the walls, pocket knives, old hunting supplies, archaeology equipment, etc. The room has a living room furniture setting area, and a kitchenette with microwave, fridge, table and chairs. It's put together almost entirely from items I had stored, that weren't being used. It may not be pretty, but it's mine, and my wife had objections to me displaying all of my junk in her living room. Go figure ;-)
