I dont collect military surplus, but I do like antique military rifles. I have right now a 1943 Mosin Nagant with a period correct scope, and I am in the process of buying a M1 Garand Carbine... Nice collection man, seriously. tryfuhl 02-09-2011, 08:59 PM Mosin's are all of the rage right now Alvin Walton 02-09-2011, 09:08 PM Yep, I have five Mosins. Three 91/30s an M44 and an M38. http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f237/redstout/allfive.jpg Daseal 02-09-2011, 10:07 PM Note to self: Don't rob Alvin Walton's house. firstdown 02-09-2011, 10:30 PM This is my bayonet collection.

Is that standard issue now days. warpaint 02-09-2011, 10:39 PM :lol: nice SolidSnake84 02-10-2011, 06:45 AM My mosin is my favorite rifle of all. My dad got it for me for my 25th birthday. It came with all of the original tools, oil can, sling, and it has a working bayonet. The one i got had never been fired. Rifle is very accurate, I am able to fire 1" groups at 100 yards. Scope needs fine tuning i think, at about 250 yards it seems hit or miss sometimes. Do yourself a big favor and buy the american made, non-corrosive ammo. The old russian surp is very cheap and very available, but it makes cleanup messy. I've shot about 100 rounds of the non-corrosive type, and the inside stays fairly clean. The difference to me was night and day. http://a1.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc1/8120_179559338008_836553008_3706676_3177170_n.jpg KLHJ2 02-10-2011, 07:23 AM This is my bayonet collection. Mostly Czech, Yugoslavian, Russian, and Turkish. I only see 3 types of bayonets. Alvin Walton 02-10-2011, 07:24 AM Corrosive ammo is no big deal if you understand it properly. The salt in the primer is what attracts moisture = corrosion/rust. I just bring the popular solution which is a bottle of Windex and spray down the bore and the bolt then do my regular cleaning, then oil. Its really quite easy. A few years ago when it was ultra cheap I bought a few thousand rounds of surplus 7.62x54R and continue to shoot it.
