Just picked up a "numbers matching" 91/30 Mosin Nagant in nice shape. I know the previous owner had shot it before. Is it nesc. to run a headspace gauge in it or once its good, is it good?
IF I do need to check it, does anyone in the area around Columbia City have a set of OKIE gauges that I could rent or use or would meet with me to check it at their place? I also was told i should check the firing pin protrusion with the MN tool (which I also no not have). I would buy the OKIE gauges but apparently the fellow that made them passed away and the site is gone to order them on.
Thanks!
