As most of you know I have collected Mosin Nagants and Finn rifles for over 30 years. Some years back the folks in New York had a complete barreled action for short money. The bluing was very good and the bore was great. I found a M39 stock and added it to my collection. Well I decided to make a custom rifle out of it. So I purchased an Arcangle Stock, Timney trigger, crowned the barrel and added some bedding to the stock. I then purchased a custom scope mount and its at the gunsmith now being drilled and tapped to except the mount.
I know its blasphemy to take a collector rifle and do this but what the heck I have so many M27's, M28's, and M39's one custom rifle using the very accurate M39 just seemed like a project I wanted to give a try.
I will post pictures when its finished along with some 200 yard targets.
So guys don't kick me out of the collectors forum for what we usually think is a "unthinkable act"!!!!
