Mosin home defense mod

[NoBanStan]

I know some of you haters may not approve, but i've modded my mosin to make it a tactical home defense weapon!

 

I can't get the picture to link so i'll just leave the link here.

I dare some fool to walk up in my house!

Even if one were to miss, your intended target would be deaf forevermore

What is that?

[NRA]

"Some fool" may just out arm you with that ..... just my .02

[NoBanStan]

What is that?

 

 

HAHA you tell me. It turned up on a Google image search and I felt it needed to be marveled by TGO. 

 

***edit*** I can't stop laughing. How would you even hold it to use the aimpoint??? The second pistol grip is what kills me

"but i've modded my mosin to make it a tactical home defense weapon!" so you did not do this...... thank goodness on your soul.

hah, no. In fact, that image may be a photoshop considering that the compensator doesn't appear to be in line with the barrel.

[TrickyNicky]

That's uh, really... something?

I thought for a minute we were talking about the Nagants that have been turned into handguns. I still think THOSE are BA, but this... Well, no. Just no.

[tnguy]

I think the barrel may be in line with the compensator but the rail isn't on straight (though could just be shadows)

Not only deaf but you would be blind from the muzzle flash/flame.

Looks better than the Mossberg tactical lever rifle.

If it's not 26" long, it's an SBR and requires a tax stamp.

All you have to say is "it's a Mosin." Ain't no way a BATFE agent is going to think it's under 26".  :D

 

I love that you'd need a 3rd hand to use the grips and cycle it.

group buy!

I still think this is one of the coolest things ever...

It hurts my hand just thinking about firing that.

[nightrunner]

The first tactical one is hideous. But the handgun is pure awesome :thumbsup:

That's what I'm talking about! Those things are just plain cool. Not sure how many rounds I would fire with it, but I've given thought to building one. Don't think I'll do it but its nice to dream.

Looks pretty cool in a 'steampunk' kinda way.  My problem would be that - in order to be able to cycle it as quickly as possible - the bolt would have to be cycled with the right hand.  That would mean shooting it left-handed which, in my case, would mean shooting it with my weak/non-dominant hand.  Combine the recoil with that odd grip and shooting left handed and I might actually hit the broad side of a barn.  That barn would be good and shot, though.

No you rotate your right hand palm up and throw the lever with your left hand. You will need to also lean you head to the left so as not to catch a chunk of brass/steel in the head.

Unfortunately, I believe it requires a tax stamp since it started as a rifle.  My understanding is you can go pistol -> rifle -> pistol, but can't go rifle ->pistol.  It's classified as a "weapon made from a rifle".

I could be mistaken about this...but I do believe something about some Mosin's being imported "as pistols" specifically for this purpose. Meaning that they were modified before coming into the United States (and thus, before ATF even knew about them).

 

I think you are right about doing it yourself though.

It would be a good flamethrower.

That's the problem. If it was just finding a bubba'd 91/30 and having the barrel cut and crowned it would be done by now.

Gun laws make me :(

Makes me wonder how hard a DIY receiver would be. It doesn't look terribly complicated. Not even going to think about adding it to my very long to-do list though.
