No joking you guys, the stock alone is a game changer. I haven't used my nugget very much because of how heavy it fucking is, but goddamn if this new stock makes it WAY more tolerable to haul around. I can't wait to get the rest of the parts on it and see how he performs then.
Pic related is the one I bought. Inb4 ATI shill.

The Archangel looks 1000% better than that ATI moulded piece of shit
>>30001620
No it doesnt you fucking heretic
Adding a shitty polymer sporter stock is not a game-changer.
A game-changer would be buying one of those aluminum chassis for it. I don't really know what the point of this is. Mosins are fun because they're surplus and that's about all they're good for.

A game changer would be replacing the stock barrel with a UK59 barrel
>>30001620
The ATI doesn't turn it into an abomination

kys. I would take the fudd-shit stock over that ugly mall-ninja abomination any day.
>>30001620
Damn. You're right. I sure do wish I'd purchased this one instead of the Monte Carlo. Now my gun will never be ultra extreme tactikool. *sobs quietly in the corner while niggers rob my apartment and fuck my wife*

You're all fucking plebs.
The Mosin is an ass-ugly gun to begin wtih.
The ATI stock is a cheapo, injection-moulded piece of turd that only poorfags would defend.
Out of all polymer stocks available for the mosin, the archangel is the best looking one, PERIOD. It's more practical, turns an ugly gun into an aesthetically and practically superior bench rest gun, AND as a bonus you don't have to fucking file it in order to bed your mosin properly, unlike the ATI turd. Fuck you poorfags, the archangel is vastly superior.
If you want to be actually tasteful about modding your mosin, then get a wooden fucking stock for it, not a fucking polymer one.
>>30001690
This, I'm considering building a super nugget.
>>30002009
Tasteful people don't mod mosins
>tfw want mosin because no full caliber raifu besides shitty 25-06 i can't even find ammo for

>figure mosin would be good since cheap

fuck nuggets.

A game-changer would be buying a good gun to begin with instead of investing hundreds of dollarydoos into a conscript's rifle that wasn't very good to begin with and hasn't aged well since.

Or you could get an M39

>jumping on deals that have long died.
I got mine for 160 about 4 years ago.

They were cheap when they found a bunch of surplus rifles that were all forgotten in storage. They sold them by the pallet. That supply is gone and now people want them for the novelty.
Get a savage axis 30-06.
>>30002289
i thought they were still cheap since everyone said they were still cheap and that there were a fuckton out there.
>>30002296
that's actually not a bad deal at all and I can re-use my 25-06 scope on it.
thanks.
>>30002263
>or you could get an expensive Mosin that's slightly less shit but still noticeably worse than any bolt gun made in the past 50 years
>>30002175
Mines pretty tasteful...
>>30002331
They are "cheap" and cheap if that makes any sense.
Also , you might wanna play with an axis for a while before you get one, if you can save a bit of coin you can get a base model FPC for like 200 more.

does anyone make a underfolding stock for a mosin? for some reason that tickles my fancy

lol u mad brah?

That actually looks good. Nice
>>30001568
So say I can get a barreled action for $100 would it be worth getting it and one of the $60 Monte Carlo stocks? I also have extra bedding compound from my last project.
>>30006888
yep.
I've actually shot nuggets with the ATI monte carlo and archangl.
The ATI is a light stock. There is more felt recoil due to the lighter stock. The asshole who owned it put a hair trigger on it to, so fuck me I was hurting. The build quality seem perfectly ok to me. Would probably be good for someone who wants to lug it around all day hunting shit.
The Archangel is a heavier stock, more for target and "precision" shooting. It actually felt rather nice. Gun didn't shoot worth a damn though. The guy who owned this one probably started with a nugget in shit condition. Also, mags are terribly designed.
I wouldn't get either of them. I would have gotten an axis or any other budget rifle if I were going to dump money into a nugget.
