Mosin Nagant

I picked up my two M44 for $120 and $150. Just got to keep your eyes open. My all matching T53 was a bit more at $185.

Still wanting to know where you Mosin guys get your headspace gauges, or do pay a gunsmith to check it? I'd rather do it myself.

It looks like Brownell's carries them, if you don't get any other leads.

Take a look at this under reassembly. I have several of these and I can bring one next week.

Thanks. Looks like they carry both the Fosters and the Clymers for 7.62x54R.

One other thing, where do you Mosin guys get your headspace gauges?

Mine came with my rifle.

I think you're talking about the firing pin depth gauge, not a set of 3 headspace gauges (GO, NO-GO, and FIELD), unless they came with the rifle.

I haven't even gotten mine cleaned up yet.

Never seen the type that fit on the outside of the chamber, rather than in the chamber, but I guess those work as the principle is the same. Also, it looks like you don't need to remove the extractor to use those, so that's a big plus. At an absolute minimum, I would have the FIELD gauge. Thanks for the link.

Edit: Also he has an excellent primer for headspace here:

I think we had a convert today.
