They are fun guns there is no doubt about it....but depending on what your friend wants he may not be happy with one. They can be all over the board, the barrels are pretty thin, and they do tend to string a bit when they get hot. Some are closer to shot guns then they are to rifles...all I am saying here is it is possible to get 1MOA of stop sign out of some of these rifles, and I have never seen one do one hole at even 50 yards....but if hitting 2 liters at 100yards is what you are after this is a real fun way to do it.A friend of mine is wanting a fun gun for target shooting. I'm thinking I'll surprise him at Christmas time with a Nagant.
I agree....but I think a better word is "could be very accurate."With some work, they can be VERY accurate!
YOU TELL US ABOUT THAT NOW!!!!!!Did anybody else get in on the Black Friday Aimsurplus deal? Not bad $219 for a 91/30 and m44. I still kick myself for not getting a M44 when Big 5 had em on sale for $59 a few years ago. I wasn't 18 then and my dad just looked at em and felt the $60 wasn't worth it because the M38s were so similar.
Like this one?I'm curious why you'd want to put a scope on a mosin. Personally sporterized guns turn me off. They're kinda like overly customized classic cars in that they're less desireable than a straight original car. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
