Google Trends. Mosin–Nagant. History[edit] Initial design and tests[edit] When trials concluded in 1891, the evaluators were split in their assessment.

Mosin–Nagant

The main disadvantages of Nagant's rifle were a more complicated mechanism and a long and tiresome procedure of disassembling (which required special instruments – it was necessary to unscrew two fasteners). Mosin's rifle was mainly criticized for its lower quality of manufacture and materials, resulting in a slightly larger number of stoppages. The Commission voted 14 to 10 to approve Nagant's rifle. Technical detail[edit] Compared to the 1898 Mauser rifle, the 1891 Mosin has a commonality in that it uses two front-locking lugs to lock up the action. Like the Mauser, the bolt lift arc on the Mosin–Nagant is 90 degrees, versus 60 degrees on the Lee–Enfield. The rifling of the Mosin barrel is right turning (clockwise looking down the rifle) 4-groove with a twist of 1:9.5" or 1:10".

The School of Ham: Introduction : fatpeoplestories

A mere teenager at the time, it was hanging out with these misguided girls that ruined Chibiham until Mama whipped her back into shape. This is the story of how they guiled her into their logic. Disclaimer: These are stories as told to me by Chibiham over Skype, re-written by me. So while they can carry the label “based on a true story” and have the Chibi-not-ham's seal of approval, I didn't actually experience any of this and cannot vouch one way or another.
