Yeah, guns don't usually kill people on their own.

Cheap Russian guns do, though.

Cheap - yes
Dangerous - only if poorly maintained
Otherwise - very sturdy and very reliable

... but I'm most likely gpoing to to get the cheapest Mosin Nagant I can get my hands on....


I cannot stress enough how much of a bad idea that is. Never go cheap on an already questionable firearm. Don't get me wrong Mosins are lovely rifles and wonderfully cheap to shoot, just don't pick one out without inspecting it first. I wouldn't go over $115 when it comes to purchasing the rifle though. When I was looking for my mosin I saw way too many cheap rifles with horribly fouled barrels.

The biggest problem I had with my mosin was cosmoline. When you are searching for a mosin, look at the stock and make sure it doesn't look greasy. Run your fingernail over the stock and if any yellow junk comes off you shouldn't get it unless you are willing to go through the hassle of getting all of the cosmoline out. trust me, having a rifle sweat cosmoline while you are shooting is one of the worst things in the world.


Cheapest as in best deal, not cheapest as in least expensive.

Also, what fingernails? lol

Right now I'm spending half my money on ammo(mostly ammo hoarding, it is a disease!), 25% buying other stuff, 20% winter gifts, and 5% saving.

Sometime after Xmas I'll be saving for a decent 1911 or HK45.

Once I'm 21, I'm getting a Beretta 92F, or a FN Five-SeveN, if possible.
Then, I'm getting a consealed weapon permit.

Thos Five-seveNs go for about $900 and up new and ammo is scarce, you know. I wouldn't recommend it for a first pistol.

Then again, with the (D)ykes running around, you never know how long you can get things like that...
