This is my first post here, but I've been lurking for a bit. Great info to be found! Anyway, I just bought a Mosin Nagant, and I was wondering if there are any parts prone to failure? Just need an idea of what I should pickup for spares.

The ejector/interupter on mine was not working. It was not ejecting the casing (wasn't contacting the base of the cartridge when the bolt was drawn to the rear) and thus not pushing the interupter to the side to allow the next cartridge in the mag to rise up.
I ordered the $7 part.......just before I took the rifle apart, cleaned the slot for the ejector and bent the spring lightly by hand after which the rifle cycled all 5 rounds flawlessly hahahahaha
Sometimes you eat the bear and sometimes......
All said, there is not really much that goes wrong with a Mosin. I have a bunch of them, several still in grease from the refurb factory. At a hundred bucks per rifle, why not have a few spares.
Where can I find these $100 rifles?!
