Mosin, Mosin, Mosin

Got a Mosin comin'. Standard issue round receiver 91/30. Might be able to pick it up on Tuesday or Wednesday. I'm already planning to bubba it with a scout scope. Don't hate me if you are a purist, but I'm also thinking of painting it. Something along the lines of this nicely done work/tutorial. Who knows? I may chicken out and only do the wood.
