custom mosin nagants

If you google image " socamo " or custom mosin there are tons of ideas....... im going to be putting a Bluegrass stock on my 1931 hex 91/30... as soon as he can ship accross the border. iraqveteran8888 has done some awesome vids on youtube about custom mosins and all sorts of possible options... socamo.com is a whole forum of custom mosin enthusiasts... amazing ideas on there.. good luck bro... any pics of your poject?
 
I plan on doing a lot of things to mine (mainly putting it in an Archangel stock), but that'll have to wait until after I get my M14 done. Don't worry purists, everything I'll be doing is completely reversible.
 
I just put mine together. Archangel stock, Timney trigger, NC Star scout scope mount, Burris holographic red dot scope, harris bipod.
I'd recomend pollishing all the contact faces in the bolt and cutting 1/4" off the bolt spring. My bolt cycles decent after cutting the spring and the Timney trigger is very nice. If you don't have bent bolt, going the with scout scope mount will save some grief. The last thing I'll get done is shorten the barrel by 6" and install a muzzle brake.
I'm going to run 3 different weights of bullets through my Chrony this weekend before it gets shortened, and repeat the experiment after to see what the exact effect on muzzle velocity is from the 6" barrel difference.
I'll post my findings in a month or two (weather depending)
BTW, how do you post pics from a cel phone into a reply?
 
You have to take the front sight off to get the front barrel band off unless you want it rattling on the barrel.
You might also have to take a little material off where the interupter is if you have trouble feeding.
