I have a 1928 Mosin-Nagant. My first gun, got it when I was sixteen.
I can make decent (3"-5") groups with it at 300yd, using that shitty butt Russian sardine can ammo. That's nice and all, but I know I can do better.
For those who have used one of these weapons, you know that the triggers on these guns are hot garbage. I'll be replacing mine with an adjustable Timney match-grade one.
ProMag makes a really nice replacement stock called the Archangel, that not only drops serious weight off the old bird, but also lets you attach way neato things to it, like a rail system, and what have you. It is also clearanced to accept 10rd magazines, which are also manufactured by ProMag. I bought mine in desert tan, but they're available in black, olive drab, and grey, as well.
Links to the shit I bought below, note that I may not have bought them from these sites:

Finally, I have a question for you. Laser sight, or no laser sight? Under barrel or side barrel mounted? What do you recommend?

I want to see how it looks when you're all finished.
Stay with me on this one because it's going to get convoluted. 3 laser sights. One on either side and one on the bottom - now I know what you're thinking, "But Space, what about my flashlight and grenade launcher?" We'll worry about those later comrade. The beauty of three laser sights, mounting in a triangle pattern, is that your enemy will think Predator is after it. You're welcome.

I want to blind my enemies before I kill them.

You mean you want to give your target a chance at identifying your location l, or just give'em a heads up that youre targeting them. I dont follow.

Ol ironsights do fine. A bolt gets a scope. I have a ghost ring on my 16"lever.44 and man oh man its just as good as a scope imo.

That's cool was just curious to see how it came along. Good luck with the rework, it should be a blast!
