No problemo, Yuri!

I’m partial to Mosins as you can probably tell by the post on my blog I did with a little family picture of my collection. OK, so I’ve added a .22 revolver since then.

I don’t see why not. That’d be preferable in my opinion.

I need to find the screws for a PU scope on my 91/30. The screws go to the adjusting knobs. Thanks for your time.
