why when you are removing the bands it looks as if it requires more force to take them off than it does to put them back into place? or did you not put them on fully?
its a good thing you put that ammo completely out of the way, you dont want that ammo deciding to load itself....man you just cant trust ammo these days they have a mind of there own!
@TaZ101SAGA I entirely agree. ( a random story... I got in an argument with a kid about whose rifle was better and My Mosin was wrecking thousand yard targets with a long eye relief scope and His savage arms was struggling at best)
the rear one is tougher? well im fucked then. i got the rear one off in less then 2 seconds the front i been working on for ten minutes and cant get the pos off
This was the first gun I bought and still my favorite. Expensive to shoot all day but worth it. I shot through both sides of a steel rim with one shot. also the cheapest gin I bought. I wish ammo was cheaper.
@erieordnancejim The manual says it is cock on closing. I'm not a Mosin Expert or anything, so I'm not claiming one way or the other. It's just something I noticed when looking through the manual.
The jag is a device that allows a cleaning patch to have a compression fit. In the bore. So that it can be scrubbed with the jag & patch or just used to push the patches out of the barrel. Which is much quicker.
Lay a patch over the chamber and push the jag into the chamber . Or wrap a patch around your jag.
There are two basic types of jag one relies on pushing the jag with the front of the jag and the other relies on a rough outer diameter to grip the patch.
i just bought mine today and got back from shooting it.
its a REALLY tough gun lol, it kicks hard, and you gotta act like you wanna beat the hell out of it when you're chambering a new round. you definitely cannot be gentle with it haha.
but its a ton of fun to shoot, probably my most accurate rifle yet.
yeah I can totally relate to the whole "gotta beat the shit out of it so the damn bolt handle can pop open to eject the casing" yeah its a real bitch to get that thing open sometimes, especially when you run it hot, it could probably be that I am using that hradcore 50 year old military surplus, I heard it was something to do with the casing of the shell that makes it hard to eject, I don't think new factory ammo would do that.
a lot of this resistance could be from cosmoline. See if you can clean the entire rifle of cosmoline and it should smooth up the action quite a bit. It still requires some force, but the cosmoline really compounds things.
Got mine for 79.99 + about 18.75 shipping total = less than $100 at J & G sales, they have the lowest (current) prices. I say current because the gun market has gone from super availablility to backorders and delays, even with ammo. Hurry up and pick up as much surplus ammo as you can. I got 2 cans of 440 rounds for about $215 shipping included 880 total rounds, thats right less than a quarter a round shipped to your door. Visit J & G sales, they seem pretty good.
Yes, J&G Sales has ALWAYS had the best deals...only gone up about $10.00 over the last 12 months ($79.99 is cheapest). They no longer have hand-select options, though, which is disappointing.
Also try AIM Surplus, they go for about the same...I think the only difference is they rate their's as "excellent" grade vs. J&G, which is "very good"...but I haven't purchase from either of them yet.
Go to Century Arms if you want REALLY good M38s and M44s, though.
Actually they do have hand-select option, because I ordered one for a family member about a month ago and they did give me that option, however I believe it will have to be through phone ordering and not online, that is if the online option has been disabled, you can still request it by phone i guess. Either way this gun is a beast, the recoil is pretty bad ass, my shoulder is witness to that, yellow and purple 2 days after. Ammo is the cheapest, you can mod it at a fair price, and fairly accura
Best ammo prices after searching the internet for a few millenias, and looking over a billion and a half ammo websites i thing sportsmansguide is the best. Overall people get scared because of the membership fee, although you can use the savings on that same day, you also get free shipping on your first order, and 2 $10 certificates, and im not sure but you could probably also try to apply another $10 discount with the various coupon codes that exists for sportsmanguide on the net. 880rds-$161
I've been looking for a laminated M44 for a while now. Just cant seem to find one. Always run a cleaning rod from the breech end and not the muzzle end. Other than that great video.
This video was made in the context of understanding the mosin nagant and it's military cleaning equipment. The cleaning rod that is military issue dictates that it be used from the muzzle for it is not long enough to pass through the action. In military around the world cleaning from the muzzle is commonly accepted as proper. Reasons include Muzzle loading rifles of the past and the fact that barrel inspection, counter boring , and the use use of muzzle guides are all military practices.
An M44 is basically the same thing as a 91/30, the only difference is it's shorter and the bayonet is permanently attatched.
I actually just now went downstairs to disassemble and cleaned mine (just got one too; used the vid too in fact, as a pretty good guide), and it's almost an identical process [The only difference being messing with the affixed bayonet on the carbine].
I have a question about my nagant, the barrel wobbles around inside the stock, is it supposed to do this, should it be tighter or should I put padding of some sort inside between the barrel and the stock to keep it from moving. I just got it and shot it 5 times with no problems and accurate as can be.
No, it's not. I would probably get that fixed, as it might affect accuracy. The Mosin Nagant is supposed to be a very sturdy rifle, it should not wobble around.
Thanks very much for the information on this gun I have recently attained a mosin nagant 91/30 and its the rifle with full length barrel. though there may be some outstanding differences the bolt and dis assembly is very much the same. also the tools and such that i had also attained with the gun i had no idea how to use. so all around a great informational video.
