You can own mosins in Australia? wow

good gun but

round > hex

>>29573001
$500 could have put you on the path to a better rifle friendo, but if you're happy that's all that matters.
>>
>>29573001
read the beginning, and almost started laughing, then saw you were from australia.

yeah, you did do good. good job.
>>29573286
it's australia dood, you can't get much better than that

>wasting that much on a shitty meme gun

They're only popular on /k/ because they're dirt fucking cheap in the US and most of Europe.

They're pretty crappy rifles.
You would have been better off buying an old Enfield.

>lives in Britain 2: Electric Didgeridoo
>didn't invest in a top of the line Enfield
The mosin is good, but the Enfield is better. Seeing it's easier to get .303.
>>
yes mosins are good rifles, and this fag >>29573277
is a dumbass.

IMO finns are better, but when you live upside down I suppose you should take what you can get.

How are they crappy? I might not argue there are not better rifles, but how is the Mosin 'crappy'?
>>
>>29573277

the ruskies started making them round to make mosins faster during the war, or in other words there is a good chance less care went into making round receivers vs. hex

>round better

top pip.
>>
>>29573532
They started making round receivers in 1935.
>>
>>29573277
but that's wrong
>>
>>29573801
The point was to make manufacturing easier and speed production, that is why they did it. I think he is confusing the high wall rounds, which was done during the war to speed production even more.

In any case, Hex is definitely a better receiver.

>>29573001
>500 Diggery-dollars
>for a mosin
Holy fuck.
>>
>>29573001
Yep, looks sexy and if it's in good condition that's a good price, exceptional if it's original parts and matching serial numbers.
>>
>>29573001
Breddy gud, I paid 535 for my round receiver which was a bit much.
