My Mosin Adventures

Nice! Out of curiosity where'd you get that tripod mount?

I figured i would share my Mosin with you guys. Just sporterized it a few months ago. I see you guys talking about scope options, this is what I went with http://www.rocksolidind.com/mosin-nagant.html. You do need to drill and tap but by far I think this is the most solid option I found (and I spent weeks searching).

Looking good. Is that the ATI stock?

Mine has never engaged the safety on it's own. I wonder if you took apart the bolt and cleaned it well if that would help. Also, Brass Stackers makes a great scope rail too.

Got both the stock and bipod off amazon. The bipod is the universal bipod using the sling swivel to mount. And yes it is the ATI stock, it works ok but it has fitment issues ymmv (I have some gaps around the barrel and receiver). But altogether the rifle fires good. I can hit 3-5 consistently to a frisbee sized gong at ~400yds. I didn't want the brass stackers mount since you need a long eye relief scope and you cant get very good optics that way. Also I agree with the Bolt not engaging the safety on its own. The bolts are weird and can easily be put together wrong.

What's a good scope mount that doesn't need a long eye relief and without changing stocks?
