Thanks for the rep! My father was a part of that "Greatest Generation" and I think of him @ the battle of the bulge every time I use my M1 carbine....thats why I bought it. My wife has the same feelings about her dad when she fires her Remington Rand 1911.
Thanks for the rep! Hope you get what you're after. Mosins are a lot of fun. I've had a couple and am in the market for another after foolishly selling them.
