He's poking fun at you...
As for Mosin Love! WTF! Why the hate? I mean... have you truly shot a Mosin... when you couldn't find ammo (I was and am shooting it $0.19 per round) while most folks couldn't even plop down $1 per round even if they could find it. My Mosin got me through hard times of 2012-2014 ammo availability and prices... Plus I have experienced getting my Mosin M44 delivered directly to my home (C&R license)... now that was awesome! Shooting a bit of history and if it breaks... it comes with a burial device (bayonet)... lol Or as someone put it to me one time... you take the metal buttplate and use it to dig a trench long, wide and deep enough to bury it.  _________________ "Shoot Often, Shoot Safely and Share Your Sport!"

I have:
.308 Ruger Gunsite Scout rifle 9mm Beretta Cx4 Storm carbine 9mm Beretta 92FS (uses same mags as carbine-15and 30 rnd) 9mm Bersa ultra compact 10/22 rifle Ruger SR22 .22lr revolver and a Mosin  I consider them all must-haves and all FUN! The only thing I might like to add is a .308 semi-auto rifle. That would be a good addition and keep the calibers limited the way I prefer. _________________ Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken...just a little warped.
