Depends on which ammo you buy. I am shooting military surplus at about 15 cents per cartridge, but brass cased Remington will run $1 per cartridge.
The Imperial Russian Army developed the Mosin Nagant Rifle between 1882 and 1891. In 1891 Russia officially adopted the Mosin Nagant Rifle. The rifle was designed by Sergei Mosin from Russia and Leon Nagant from Belgium. This is where the name of the rifle comes from.
$30 USD or 160 rubles in 1945
Russian sniper rifles of the modern era are the Mosin-Nagant and the Dragunov. See related links
Sergei Ivanovich Mosin, around 1891.
Yes. Mosin Nagant makes a rifle that is around 40" long and has a folding bayonet. It is called a M44
Yes. The rear sight blade on a Mosin-Nagant rifle is in metric increments. Russia and the Soviet Union never used the Imperial system, nor did any country which manufactured the Mosin-Nagant under license from the Soviet Union (Mosin-Nagant rifles were manufactured in the US from 1915 - 1917 under contract from the Russian Empire prior to the Bolshevik Revolution, but those also had sights measured in metric intervals. Rifles were also manufactured for the Russian Empire in France, as well).
, The Mosin-Nagant is the issue rifle of Russia/The Soviet Union from about 1891 to about 1945-1946 and was kept as an alternate issue rifle until recently. Regards, Josh Smith Smith-Sights.com
