Finally caved and bought my first nugget. How did I do /k/? 1929 Izhevsk Mosin M91/30 with matching numbers and markings.
Post your nugget porn fgts.
>>30627880
uuh, dude? that rifle has no firing pin.
>>30627902
It's there. I think. Fuck I'm new to mosins but I'm sure I'm hearing it release. I think the pic just made that area darker.
>>30627972
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CHAMBER ANY AMMUNITION.
Check your firing pin head space immediately.
Pic related, should have gotten one with your rifle.
>>30627972
Holy shit, show us how far the firing pin protrudes.
>>30627880
What you pay faggot? I'm trying to sell one, same year and maker. Should have bought from me.
>>30627972
Do this
>>30628020
and take a pic of the firing pin protruding
>>30628072
Did I fuck up? I assume you can adjust protrusion by toggling the flat screw at the rear of the bolt?
>>30627972
thats gonna be like a mini needle gun man.
>>30628108
I paid $250
>>30628153
holy shit
>>30628153
use this >>30628020 tool to measure the protrusion, the little part that looks like key teeth is for measuring firing pin protrusion
http://www.surplusfirearm.com/2012/03/23/mosin-nagant-bolt-disassembly-reassembly/
about 3/4 of the way down the page.
>>30628153
>Did I fuck up?
no, its adjustable. you just risk a primer detonation when striping a round with the mag. which gets metal fragments in your hand. one anon has a shadow of the bolt etched into his palm from a cartridge detonation.
Or, it can pierce the primer, causing hot gas to blast back into your face.
in my picture of the tool, use the two center notches. the pin while the bolt is de-cocked should pass under one, and hit the other.
>>30628166
jesus fucking christ they have gone up. i got two one for $67 and one for $96 back in 2013
>>30628195
nothing is the same after sandy vag.
>>30628153
It's no big deal, it's just not safe to shoot until you get the head space fixed. You just unscrew until it lines up with the tool.
>>30628185
So if I toggle the screw with like a flathead or something so that its flush with the rear of the bolt it should be fine?
Shit OP youre lucky you made this thread. probably saved yourself a big fucking burn and a fucked up face
>>30628218
not quite. give me 5 mins for pictures.
>>30628218
no you ninny, read these >>30628173
>>30628185
>>30628225
Seriously. Thanks guys. This could have ended out as a really fucked greentext.
>>30628241
not a problem, btw just noticed you got a hex receiver. you lucky cunt, helps justify the price.
>>30627880
nice picture, too bad it pierces primers
>>30628218
Alright, found my kit.
in this image, the firing pin is decocked and should not be able to pass under this notch at 75. if it passes under this notch, than you risk light primer strikes, FTF, hangfires, ect.
1/2
>>30628218
>>30628294
2/2
here, the firing pin should freely pass beneath the notch at 95. if it is too long to fit beneath, than you risk a premature slam fire, punctured primers, hot gas in your face and a free russian stipple job to the palm of your hand.
Adjust the firing pin with a screw driver until it is within these parameters, and you will be good to go.
>>30628294
FTF meaning, Falure to fire.
>>30628294
>>30628311
while youre at it cut your fingernails
>>30628336
You are on 4chan. Are you surprised by someone's lack of hygiene?
>>30628185
>mosin nagant pretty much the only main combat arm with full chamber support of ww2
>still fills your hands and face with hot powder and brass fragments if it pierces the primer
nugget a shit.
>>30628311
Thanks guys. Since i don't have one of those tools yet I'll just keep it unloaded and try not to make eye contact with it until I can find someone locally selling them or order one online.
With all that having been done, did I do good /k/?
>>30628394
yeah, 250$ is normal for a nugget at this point in time. I got mine for 115-125 a bit before sandy vag.
>>30628153
you dont need the tool if you have calipers. you can just measure how far it should protrude.
>>30627880
Its a '91 if its made before 1930. Dont call it a 91/30.
cool gun though but fuck you got robbed i bought mine for 120$ in February.
>>30628394
Bought a 1940 izhevsk for 130 a few years back, a couple type 53s for 100 each that turned out to both be drill grade made from as many manufacturer's parts as there were manufacturers of nuggets.
for one potentially functional rifle you did better than I. You do need to measure the firing pin protrusion before you use it though.
>>30628484
How far should it protrude in mm then? Because calipers are definitely a thing that can happen.
>>30628563
>calipers
You should really have both honestly, a bolt tool is like nothing, indestructible and you can keep it in your shooting bag.
https://www.amazon.com/Mosin-Nagant-action-rifle-cleaning/dp/B001FKUL4E
But as suggested by the above images, protrusion should be >.75mm but <.95mm.
>>30628153
Bring the bolt back to the shop, they should have a 90 day gunsmithing warranty on it. Better that than risk a cartridge detonation.
>>30628502
You have no idea what you're talking about.The rear sight and front sight hood are clear as day signs that it is an m91/30 and not an m91.
Returning to the general subject, and not OP's inevitable amputations.
>>30628407
Boy, no.
I got mine for 180 at my LGS
>>30628166
Fuck, selling mine for less and haven't had a single inquiry in a week.
>>30630422
Heaven forbid the Russians retrofit new sights to old rifles. Or hey it might even be a transitional model.
But if it was made in 1929, then it's an M91. Period.
>>30630422
>>30628502
It's called an Ex-Dragoon, my rifle is a 1928 - they added the 91/30 sights to rifles that were originally "Dragoon" rifles, like M91s with the length of a 91/30.
1943 Tula.
All matching and with bayonet.
Looks good as new.
.RUs get fucked, Finns did it better.
'42 Sako
>>30631774
Aren't those chambered in a different caliber?
>>30631788
No, all the M39's are in the usual .311" 7.62x54r ammo.
There were some of the earlier M/27 and M/28-30 rifles that were chambered to a .308" projectile, but all M39's have were designed around the bigger projectile.
I got lucky with my Mosin.
>1934 Hex
>Refurbished, was cleaned of cosmoline, except for the bolt
>All parts match except for the bolt
>good accuracy
I had to disassemble the bolt to clean it of cosmoline residue, but otherwise the rifle was in excellent condition.
Mine didn't come with a bayonet, so it might have been re-zeroed when it was refurbished.
Curious first time potential nugget buyer here. Where should I look to buy one? Any suggestions?

Whyyyyy :(
I want a Nugget, but Commiefornia has stupid restrictions and horseshit.
>>30637501
How can California not allow even a Nugget?
I have three nuggets, a M91, a M91/30 and a 91/30 PU. I had an M38 for a little while but I have it to my brother when he turned 18 because he loved the thing so much.
Pictured is the M91, its a Remington, 1918 production.
>>30637656
and the PU
1943 Tula, has correct sniper markings but the scope is a mismatch.
>>30637672
And the generic 91/30.
Also a '43 Tula.
>>30637685
Old photo with the M38 my brother now has.

Kek
Let's play a game /k/
Who can post a picture of the oldest nugget in /k/'s possession?
Who can post a picture of the newest nugget in /k/'s possession?
>>30628336
That looks like a woman's hands
>>30637946
There are at least two guys with 1894-dated M91 infantry rifles.
>>30638077

Guess il post my nuggets.
My 1899 already posted

This is one interesting rifle. All matching(from refurb) too
>>30638122
And my 91/59

that poster here. im just an Auschwitz reenacter.
>tfw 105lbs.
>>30638135
>105 lbs
Tweaker or female?
>>30630422
It's an m91/30, and like >>30631714 said it's an ex Dragoon. It isn't in any way, shape, or form an m91.
>>30638284
meant for >>30631686
>hey it might even be a transitional model
No such thing, it's simply an Ex Dragoon which is still an m91/30.
>>30638180
just you spoopy skellington version of the Iconic neckbeard.
Male.
>>30627880
Broke down and got one too. 1925 Tula with a hex receiver and matching numbers. I think it's refurbished.
The bayonet was a bitch to get off. Today I dissembled the gun and cleaned as much of the cosmoline off as I could using a hair drier, rags, and q-tips.
>>30628153
Use the multi-tool to check if the length is right. The second notch should connect and the third should pass over it. The 4th not can help you screw/unscrew the pin to get the length right.
>>30627902
>>30627972
pleaaaaase
>>30637672
>fake PU
welp
>you will never be NC
I can keep trying, though
>>30631714
How does one tell if a rifle is an exdragoon?
>>30639669
7.62x54r.net
Also, the rear sight.
>>30640411
aaand I just found out that my mosin is an ex dragoon
Here's my 1954 Polish M44. Looks like it was never issued. Payed $300, but in it's shape, fuck it.
It's dead accurate, too. Favorite rifle in my collection. Just so much fun to shoot.
