- There is another neat milling operation that we will take a look at in a followup video! Tula also had some interesting variants during the war that will be featured in a separate video
If you have any prayer requests, or any mosin nagant questions, please don't hesitate to send me an email:

Thanks, Big Sam. This channel is rapidly becoming the go-to source for info on Mosins.
There were so many variations just in 1941.
I have a question about the markings in white paint. Was this done during WW2 or did someone do it "recently" to make it look better? I have a 91/30 with white markings. It has been arsenal refurbished and looks brand new.
My romanian m44 is low wall it's definitely smooth.
What's your guys opinion on making a mosin scope available
I have a 1938 completely original but I'd like a scope on it but am arguing with myself internally to not do it
@@beastiemcgee544 These things were made by the millions, only a few of the best examples are ever going to be worth much of anything, it's yours, do as you like
@@beastiemcgee544 My friend, there's millions upon millions of mosins around the world. If your rifle is a generic one, and you want a cool sniper mosin clone, you ought to do what you want to do.
If it's a rare and unique variation though, I'd simply get another more generic mosin and slap a scope on that.
My brother gave me one, said I needed 2 rifles. This one he had a new barrel and the best trigger mechanism put in, barrel, shortened, completely different stock. Old school scope, I mean the scope is like something from the late 60's. 6.72x54r, shoots a inside of the palm of your hand at 400 yds
Sounds like it hurts, shooting inside of your palm.
While the Wartime produced Mosin's are rough the Russians never resorted to "Last Ditch" production methods like redesigning the components to be stamped sheet metal or simplifying the rear sight to a fixed non adjustable like the Japanese did. A gun from 1943 is as functional and serviceable as a gun from 1933.
I thoroughly enjoy your videos, and look forward to each new release. I've been collecting surplus rifles since 1986, have a good many Mosin Nagant's but have learned a good bit from watching your shows.
I have a 1942 Mosin that's probably been refurbished, because the stock is "too nice" to have been used in combat and the lands and grooves in the barrel are crisp and clean. If you are fortunate enough to get a Mosin, that puts the rounds on target.... protect it- cherish it- and keep it clean and lightly oiled.
BTW: Mosin-Nagant rifles are bulldog tough. I believe that you could throw two off of a thousand foot cliff, climb down, and from the parts you find.... assemble a working rifle.
Keep these videos coming!!!! The Mosin is my fav rifle. I have quite a collection but I'd love a vid of yours's laid out and you explain each of them for people that aren't familiar with them. Cheers!!!!
I would like some info on the extra pin through the wrist of my stock especially since I thought they only did that on laminate stock
High wall receivers actually came about in 1937, but it was exclusively for rifles using the 1936-pattern siderail scope mounts (better known as "PEM").
👏🏼👏🏼 great video. I noticed the wall behind the bolt handle on the receiver also changed throughout this video. It has a high cut on a couple of them.
I'm addicted to Mosins. I don't know why. Help?
Was a "high wall" receiver needed for metal to accommodate the screw holes for a scope mount?
Why is called a hex receiver when it is octagonal?
My 1943-stamped high wall 91/30 has a semi-sharp ridge running down the top of the receiver right where yours has the milling lines at 16:20, and your 44 at 28:45 has the same ridge as mine.That's sort of scary to notice, as in has this receiver been weakened by some vodka-besotted Ivan screwing up his job? I was supposing the builders at Izhevsk were grinding hex receivers round and just doing a sloppy job of it. It that's the way the round receivers were all coming off the line, then I'm no longer apprehensive about shooting this one.
That’s not supposed to be a secret it’s supposed to be a safety.😅
So the scalloped receivers wont be able to get a pu scope mount?
It’s so fun learning all about the Mosin Nagants. Thank you for sharing. Mine’s a 1942 izhevsk arsenal m38 carbine with the bayonet cutout like an m44. It has the rougher milling and wartime simplification as you describe. I love thinking about all the history it has.
Have a 1932. Hex receiver .Took me 3 hours to clean off the cosmoline
Today Russian rise their magazine follower to avoid snagging. They either use new magazine follower or bend the tip using pliers/hammer.
good vid, thanks boss!
Very well done presentation Sam! 😁😁
I recommend nano oil grease…. I use it in my 1923 hex barrel converted to M91/30 with PU scope. And my 1938 Mosin-Nagant. And my AKM-47…
6:45 Found a Tula 91/30 rifle from 1942 with that feature as well at a Gun Show. Refurbished from what you defined in the Respective Video.
Big Sam, please I need an advice, can you mount PU scope base on low wall mosin? One customer want me to do it. Thank you and cheers from Czech Republic.
Hello Matěj, while it was not done by the Soviets, it is possible to do. It is very common here in the states to see reproduction PU sniper rifles with pre-war low wall receivers (both hex and round)
@@BigSamMosinMuseum thank you very much. I’ll give it a try. Although PUs seem to be much common and robust I recently managed to smuggle 2 original PE scopes with mounts from Russia, so now I’m looking for a rifles to put it on. Thank you for your answer once again.
Very cool! I would love to see pictures of those, please feel free to send me an email anytime!
@@BigSamMosinMuseum Sure thing! They are coming with crates of mosins (400$ a crate), AK74Ns and PKMs I’ve ordered and they should be here shortly after new year (so my personal Christmas day will be in January). And I’ll definitely send you some pics of them. It’s a shame that you have those Russian guns/ammo bans overthere. Original Tula made AKMs are here sold for 300$ and Mosins are from 100-400$ in intact conditions, Original 1891s for 300$. If it get any better, I’ll personally send you one of those scopes as a gift.
I got a 1943 refurbished WWII Mosin Nagant with a bunch of markings on it
I have a 1943 izhevsk that you can tell they rounded out a hex reciever to make it round. 😂 that’s always made me wonder. Glad to hear you say so
well done... didnt get on cheaper MNs
but got ok deals on my 42 exigent and
33 hex 91-30s
I love my hex reciver turned down bolt mosin made before the war has an amazing bore looked brand new
My '53 Hungarian M44 has the antiquated stripper clip groove
I have holes drilled and filled on my rear sight my barrel date says 1944 but I took the receiver out and its date was 1933 its made by the Izhevsk it also 2 n's in the boxes' can you tell me if it was used in the war and if it was a sniper rifle (it dose not have the S N marking ) thanks great videos by the way mosin nagant is the best !!!!

If the bolt is longer and is bent downwards than it is a sniper mosin
Есть ещё варианты винтовок Мосина производства блокадного Ленинграда, основные отличия от остальных это плохое качество обработки деталей и отсутствие проточки под предохранитель на затворной раме. Такие винтовки встречаются очень редко, это либо образцы из земли, либо чердачного хранения. Их как правило утилизировали в 1944-1970 годах и они не шли на складское хранение.
My hex mosin doesn't have a feed ramp. Is that usual? I thought it would.
Another fine video, Thanks Big Sam.
Does any one have any information on the early design of the stripper clip that's mentioned in the video?
Thank you very much Sam.
Very much enjoy the video and offer for prayer.
Always interesting content! Thanks Big Sam
Very interesting video as usual . Keep up the good work!
Thanks for the video Big Sam!
Is there a worse military rifle from ww1 or ww2?
Damn, same factory and year lol
My first time with my hands on a 1943 Mosin yesterday, cleaning up for a friend.
I found it interesting that the receiver was stamped Albion NY along with USSR.
Anyone know if the US was making parts for Russia or what
Thanks
US made mosins during WW1. Possible its an american receiver updated for the 91/30 configuration
Around 1916 or so, Remington and New England Westinghouse produced Mosins for the Russian Empire at the time, which was approved by the Czar himself. These rifles were designated as the "Russian 3-line rifle, 7.62"
These American markings are modern import markings. You will never find a 1943 dated American Mosin example. US-produced rifles were made between 1915 and 1917 in Westinghouse, Remington, and Winchester and were the longer and older 1891 model not the shorter 1891/30
Hi big Sam I was wondering if you could tell me what a small G means on my high wall receiver
Howdy! That's interesting, the character ''G" is not in the Russian alphabet (their "G" is "Г"). Feel free to send me an email with a picture!

@@BigSamMosinMuseum upon closer inspection with a magnifying glass its a 9
😂😂I couldn't care lass about either. I'll never buy a garbage rod such as the moist nugget.
No kid, nobody cares about which receiver is stronger, what we care about is what's more rare, more specifically what's more rare and by definition more valuable in the US.
