So ive decided to chop up another perfectly good mosin. why you may ask? well honestly I've had nothing better to do lately except to challenge myself with creating a more fun mosin nagant for my family to shoot at the range, IE. something that is not necessarily "tac-driver" accurate but looks like a more modern rifle. now the reason i chose a M-N is because of the cheap bulk ammunition, .25 cents a round beats a buck when your shooting pop cans at the 100. now most would say i should have bought a .22 or whatever else under the sun but the fact remains i already owned the Mosin and don't have to spend a dime on the old girl. now getting to the point of this post, i am looking for any ideas from people who have completed such a transformation.
like welding a bridge over the stripper clip area to mount a picatinny rail, cutting the barrel and crowning and such.
