i picked up a 91/30 not too long ago, great gun to shoot and i was surprised at how accurate it is. either the Russians made mine right, or someone already messed with the sights, because it's dead-on at 100 yards. and first time i shot it, my dad said it sounded like a small cannon. paid around $100 for it, plus 100 rounds of 7.62x54R for around $20.johnson0317 wrote:Tried out my Mosin Nagant last Saturday. I have to say, for a rifle made in 1936, this thing was dang accurate at 100 yards. The elevation is right on, but the windage is a bit off to the right. I am going to shoot it some more before I monkey around with that front sight. It also has the most satisfying "BOOOOOM!"! For a rifle that cost 109 bucks, plus a 25 dollar FFL fee, this is a heck of a bargain. Add in a couple of spam cans of 7.62x54R (880 rds) for about 160 bucks...and you have a lot of fun on your hands! The recoil is not all that much; it was less than that of my BIL's 12 gauge.

Re: What did Santa bring
agreed. i've never really thought much about getting a .380 but after shooting my wife's P238, i just might get one for myself. fits perfectly in my front pocket in a pocket holster.SecedeTX wrote:Tarus 738 with a stainless slide. Never thought I would get a 380, but the ability to throw it in your front pocket is too easy

Re: What did Santa bring
yep, haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but i plan to this weekend. weather was too nasty to take it hunting this past weekend in west Texas (snow/rain most of the weekend). USA1 sold me on this gun when i was in Defcon Guns a while back and the wife gave me permission to buy it (she did get a new Sig P238 and a new pair of boots out of the deal though)Oldgringo wrote:That is pretty.
