Neither is the Mosin...Is the K98 still In service today? The Mosin can be upgraded to something similar to the R700. The K98 is a good rifle but they cost upwards of $500 sometimes
You just did an AR build and you are workin up to an SBR build,(dont forget the stamp BTW) $500.00 is a just a drop in the bucket compared to those projects.Is the K98 still In service today?

Neither is the Mosin...
And the Mosin cannot be upgraded anything even close to what an R700 is out of the Box...
The K98 though, those can be made very, very good shooter...

Not going today. It is just far enough that it is not a quick. hop. I am cooking a turkey instead but we will be taste testing at 5pm Central TODAY while we talk about hydroponics, gardening and this wonderful little 2.5 acres we may be able to use for free!The second half of my comment was less directed at you and more at the masses that think they can go it alone with the 4 person family unit....
If SHTF forces me to have to go to Wisconsin, have no doubt that I will be robbing and plundering my way to you...
We were cool till that...
DB....
Just have to go rub it i don't cha...
Wrong mag in it! Ours stows nicely in a small samsonite lap top bag. I should say "hers" as it was my GF's first gun purchase that she did WITHOUT me.
I don't get the whole mosin thing, I would think that the un-intiated would be far better served with 10 22's or as already mentioned Hi points,something small and light weight and manueverable.
Yeah mosins are cheap, way better than a rock, but for someone with little firearms experience they would not be my first choice.
Russian troops were killed at the rate of four to one by the german invaders, so if those are acceptable numbers to you by all means grab a mosin.
If wars were won by body count alone, the germans won both world wars. So if your hell bent on defending yourself with a hundred year old bolt gun you might want to get a k98, a proven winner.
There are NO countries, or Organized Forces that have the Mosin-Nagant in Service. None...The Mosin is in service I forgot were I posted the video but it's calledv Mosin nagants in modern warfare.
Hell you can make almost any rifle Accurate. If you spend Money like the Federal Government. To make the Mosin shoot in the Same Class as an R700 you are going to need a Mint to buy all the parts you are going to replace or mod. Not feasible, but yes it can be done.It can be made close to the R700. Ive seen upgrades done to it that make it as good if not better than the R700 out of the box. I own a K98 and it's accurate but not as accurate as my Mosin

If you have Proof to the Contrary I would love to see it...

You can build a k98 for a LOT less money. Better action anyway as well.
You must be a pretty good buddy. If someone wanted me to buy some "extra" guns so they could be armed in the event of an emergency, I would tell them to get their own. Not trying to be mean, but they are big boys too.
I'd rather arm my friends with cheap pump mossbergs than freaking mosin's. Seriously, you can buy a BRAND NEW (read, not 100 year old piece of ****) maverick for like what, $175?
Uh-oh . Hope you got your flamesuit ready. I don't think they're viable weapons either but they have a rabid cult following here.
