118 years of Mosin rifle, An iconic symbol of the Soviet Union!
"The three-line rifle of 1891" - under this name the legendary rifle was accepted for service by the army. On 28 April 2010 that event will turn 119 years old! This is the weapon of our army during the war with Japan, WWI and WWII - over one half of all the rifles were produced at Izhevsk arms factory (now - JSC "Izhmash").

The rifle of Sergey Mosin was the first rifle designed in Russia and accepted for service by the Russian army. The army used it for 50 years. It was an absolutely new type of rifle made for the new 7.62 mm round that combined case, primer, gun powder and bullet. The unique part of this magazine rifle was a cut-off rejecter that simply and safely prevented the jams in the receiver with the subsequent round from the magazine. By its features the rifle was superior to all small arms in the world. With time only minor modernizations took place, and that improved efficiency of production and reduced production costs.

Three arms factories at a time manufactured the rifles - in Izhevsk, Tula and Sestroretsk. But only Izhevsk made all the versions - infantry, dragoons, Cossacks, training, sniper, carbines and even acting miniature copies. Since 1925 Izhevsk factory was the leader in the output. And it was not about quantity only - Izhevsk rifle was twice cheaper than the one from Tula. Besides, Izhevsk manufactured barrels and receivers for all three factories.

During the Great Patriotic War Izhevsk technologists, designers and workers achieved a lot: labor costs per rifle decreased by 5 times, and output hit 10-12 thousand daily - enough to arm one division. In total, during the war there were assembled 12 million 100. thousand Mosin rifles, and 11 million 145 thousand of them was manufactured at Izhmash (factory № 74).

The production of Mosin rifle was ceased in 1944, but the weapon was re-born in new makes of sporting, hunting and ballistic guns of Izhmash. Valuable experience of Mosin rifle mass production as well as design, technological and labor potential formed the basis for the mastering of Kalashnikov assault rifle in 1947.

Izhevsk machine-building plant follows centuries-old traditions of Izhevsk gunsmiths and still manufactures combat and sporting guns. The latest models, accepted for service by the Russian army - 100-series Kalashnikov assault rifles, Nikonov assault rifle AN-94, Bizon submachine gun.

  • @Janphilipp100 I have fired them and more,M-1 can hit a man in the chest at 800 yards easily-I've done it (Chest targets)! K98 was outdated long ago,We ain't talking about hunting here - but war,k98 is a hunting rifle-M-1 is a battle rifle which is why the U.S. came out on top in urban warfare especially,Krauts had 1 shot-U.S. had 8 nonstop! STG44 was known to jam,had limited distance-Not as great as people say, Tommy gun was much better at close range,BAR was a badass in urban and the field

  • All of those bastards JP, Morgan the Banks all of them financed the Russians and their equipment. Thats okay though we are buying the Mosin back and we can give them what they made and pay them back in full!!!

  • @SashaVedernikov Why is it that most individuals from Russia/Eastern europe believe in all the conspiracies?

    I'm a huge fan of combloc equiptment and militaries, but the things you people believe are absurd

  • The lyrics -la letra (2). Враг недаром злится, враг не зря боится Партизанских наших рот. Вновь ему не спится, а заснет, так снится Четкий партизанский пулемет. Припев. Мы готовы к бою с бандою любою. Не впервой нам воевать. Будем биться двое: я и ты со мною. Вместе нам привычно побеждать. Припев.
  • The lyrics (1): С юга до Урала ты со мной шагала Партизанскою тропой, И врагов, бывало, падало немало Там, где пробирались мы с тобой. Припев: Эх, бей, винтовка, метко, ловко Без пощады по врагу! Я тебе, моя винтовка, острой саблей помогу. Ты и нынче та же, день и ночь на страже В прифронтовой полосе. След мы видим вражий шорох ловим каждый. Знаем мы врага уловки все. Припев.
