Custom Mosin Nagant with Bipod
With the addition of an ATI synthetic stock and a Rock Solid bipod this has turned out to be one of my better investments in a rifle. The stock has reduced the recoil to tolerable levels, the addition of the bipod has helped with steadying the longer barrel and with a hard case that was picked up at a yard sale for only $5 it stays well protected. Total cost = $200 (not including ammo).
Just need to get mounts for a scope that will be added.
Got Mosin Nagant?

That is a fun rifle to shoot. The details escape me now... but the scope mount was a little tricky. The one I purchased put the scopes about 4-6 inches from the cheek rest.. ended up putting on a long relief (pistol) scope and shortening the original stock slightly.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of the bipod.
S & K mounts make a scout scope mount for your rifle I think, here is a link with information in case you are interested. No connection with this manufacturer, so no dog in this hunt.

I only recommend them from having their Insta-Mount on my Swiss K31 rifle, makes a really sweet setup. Hope this helps.

ReplyDeleteI've come to like the bipod also but I'm still looking at some of the different options as far as scope is concerned.
Thanks.

ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I'll check it out and see what's available. I've been thinking along the lines of a scout scope but haven't made a firm decision yet.
Thanks.

Nice! I've been considering a Mosin Nagant for a while but haven't bought one as yet. How do you like it?
ReplyDeleteI do have a Saiga 308 win that I love, along with some other rifles and handguns.
Thanks!

ReplyDeleteI'm liking this rifle more and more each time I shoot it. The synthetic stock has made the recoil very manageable and this particular rifle is fairly accurate with just the iron sights. I'd even buy a second one if a good one comes along.
.Thanks Joe.
