You wouldn't be disappointed with the Nagant. My father and I both have one. His is an M-44 (carbine, swing-out bayonet) and mine's the full 91/30. BOTH are solid guns; mine was grouping in half-dollar-sized formations out of the box. I simply cannot stop singing the praises of a gun that only cost me $70 that can hit anything you point at it at 100+yds...and everything within 10 feet to the left or right of the target as well (yay for backsplash!)

The Mosin Nagnat scoped rifle at 850 yards. Not bad for a 60 plus year old shootin iron. Wish I had a play ground like shooter has too.

Unfortunately I don't get out much anymore the TT33 was used mostly to punch paper sillouettes at 25 yards. Been about four years or more since I last fired it.

I don't have pics of mine but here's someone else with their G/K43 in action. Must admit it is an awkward design trying to managing the bolt when I have the scope and mount attached. Also when ejecting brass it absolutely mauls them, making it impossible for reloads.

Looking at the video.

Call of Duty really captured the sound of that rifle well

Back when I shot USPSA I used my venerable SIG 226.

Nice weapon

You really can't appreciate the report of a Nagant until you're sitting behind it. Let me tell you, it's....sinus-clearing.

@Jim....yeah, I'm of the belief that complete handgun registration would be damn near impossible here in The States. Too many guns already in the system.

WW I era colt 1911 45, German K-98 8mm. Norico sks, ak , model of colt 1911 45 , Dan Wesson 357 short cut to heaven, Ithica model 37 12 ga. winchester 1897 25 35. Let's see how knowledgeable you guys are, what was one of the first repeating rifles used in the U.S. Civil War that fired a rim fire bullet ? In New York right now deer hunting, no luck yet.

TarJak · 12-03-10, 05:21 AM

Don't imagine you'd find much deer in Times Square.

The New York you're thinking of has Dear. Which i much prefer to hunt.

Was that the Winchester repeater, firing .44 rimfire?

And I've got a little experience with the Norinco SKSs...my father has one. They're exponentially lighter than the Yugo variety, but I've found that mine performs better. Do you like it?
