First Mosin

[onelochevy]

Finally put my C&R license to use after having it for almost a year. I ordered a Mosin 91/30 with hex receiver from J&G Sales last Tuesday and it showed up at the house today. I had every intention of adding an aftermarket stock to this rifle just as kind of a fun cheap project gun, but after seeing it in person it will be left exactly as is. Really a beautiful rifle. Receiver date is 1927.

Looks pretty good! Are all the hex receivers that old?

From the little bit I've read, I believe the hex guns are older. I think they made those at first before switching to the round receiver.

That looks to be an ex-dragoon rifle judging by the Russian Cyclic Writing on it, It looks great!
