Trade Ex M38

[jongun]

No doubt on the instant collection.

Bore good on it?

Yes Sir.

The wood needs some BLO, a bit dry.

Some of the rifles came fully matching (no electro pencil on the M38 and one SKS)

Again TradeEx - I am very happy!

Wow...impressive! Love the wood on the M38 and the Laminate SKS!

If you can then you Sir are a better man than I...lol...as I plan to open mine about 10 seconds after I get it home from the Post Office.

Oh boy, my CC was charged today... never thought I'd be happy to see that

 

[johnny the boy]

Wow that milsurp package is sweet.

I don't think a closed box has ever made it home with me!

I don't think a closed box has ever made it home with me!

It is so damn hard to avoid opening a box right there at the post office, but I don't think they'd appreciate it much if it had my M38 haha.

You're in Kitchener, I say go for it

@ CODfan, great additions to your collection!!! Picture Roy Scheider saying "we're gonna need a bigger safe" instead of his famous boat line from Jaws!!! Well done indeed!!!

 

[CODFan]

"we're gonna need a bigger safe"

LOL - Yup that one may not get past the wife too easily, but it is getting a bit more crowded for sure.

Update: incredible what a little BLO did for the Vz24 stock. Rifling is strong, a little frost, but still 8.5/10

 

[Magellann]

That cleaned up beautifully, good work!

I usually do not post anything about my purchases, but in this case my hats off to TradeEx on the 5 pack deal.

Well done!

It doeasn't get any better than that, nice collection. Congrats!

@CODFan yep, a BLO scrub, and drink does wonders for the old war horse stocks. Great looking rifles. Aren't ya glad I told you about the deal!!! I know, I know....it's my fault.

Ordered mine from Trade Ex, got a shipping notification today. Should arrive tomorrow.

It'll be my first Mosin Nagant, I am excited.

You are aware that one leads to two and to three etc etc

Say what is a BLO scrub , what is the procedure for this type of cleaning for a mosin m38. ??? they look very nice after BLO cleaning, im wondering!!! can you explain . Thank you

 

[machinistbutler]

Maybe boiled linseed oil.

What is the procedure for this type of cleaning for a mosin m38.

The only "bad news" is with the lovely Russian Shellac finish you are going to need to strip it all down and re-finish.

Just a little more work.
