N1's Fail Review of Mosin Nagant Sniper Rifle

So this video was going to be better but the cameraman refused to be quiet because he doesn't like my accent. Silly Fred. It's a wonderful rifle, it really is... but we were having minor problems with it. Namely you would fire it a few times, it would be dead-on... and then it wouldn't be. So you check the scope's mounting screws and they'd be loose. Tighten, dead-on, loosen, repeat.

So what we learned at this visit is that lock-tite is going to be the next step on this rifle. Once it isn't backing its own screws out every two shots it should be a wonderful gun to shoot. Hopefully there will be a more successful video later once the rifle's fixed and I get duct tape for the cameraman's mouth. Or, you know, get a different cameraman.

Not pictured: the glorious Mosin Nagant Sniper Rifle shattering a steel target in half. That sadly happened before this video was taken.

what range was that? as in distance. Also I know he said repro scope , I was wondering where you purchased as I was thinking of buying one. I would be interested in a serious review if you get around to it.

Nice hat though.

@Shep482 The targets are at 100yds but we were firing crosswise so it was a hair over that. It was purchased through South Ohio Guns. A serious review is in the works, as soon as I have time off from work to take it back to the range once it's fixed up. Expect it in 1-2 weeks. Thanks for the comment!
