Any Mosin Nagant fans?
My solution for the saftey
I tied a leather strip, like soft leather, or suede of some sort, around it and tied a knot in it. I also tied a knot in the loose ends and just pull back and rotate. The saftey goes on easy and same for taking it off. Grab the leather, pull and rotate. Beats me trying to wrestle it on with my fingers.

I just got my Russian Mosin Nagant last week. MO 1942/49 Almost rubbed the finish off. Can't wait to shoot it.

I am the proud owner of a '45 Izhevsk M-44. I love being the guy with the loudest, flame throwing pig sticker on the line! LMAO

I've had a 1953 Polish M44 for about 8+ years, recently won an auction and now it has an older brother by a year.

Re: Any Mosin Nagant fans?
Thanks Hayden, she's alittle rougher, but has the bayonet already on it. Only numbers that match are the receiver and buttplate. Need to somehow tighten up the front handguard bands. I think they got bent up when someone refinished the stock. Oh well, I'm sure she'll be a good shooter. Still need to check headspace and firing pin protrusion.
