Mosin Nagant should I or shouldn't I?

[larrylegend]

I just purchased my first Mosin this weekend. I have no idea why folks say they "kick like a mule". If you think the recoil is bad on a Mosin you should go out and shoot a 3.5 inch turkey load or slug out of a 12 gauge pump.

Great rifle for the money.

If anyone nearby or around Muncie has a Mosin that I can try out I would love to try one out before I decide to buy it!

I picked one up this last Saturday, ammo showed up yesterday. With luck I'll be able to take it out this coming Sunday.

For the price, what it is, and a chance to own a bit of history, I'm happy thus far.

Yes you should,they are ugly,heavy,and ugly,but as problem free as a hammer.If you don't like it you can use it for a fencepost,flagpole,hatrack,any other suggestions?
