7.62mmR Mosin Nagant Handbook

The book was informative and easy to read and understand. I think it was priced right as well. And I Did recomend it to a friend and he will purchase and keep it with His Mosin like I am doing .Nice to have as a reference and kinda like a Owners Manual..Has a lot of information for a little hand book . A very good product for your money.

Good source of information. I also got a Kindle version of the Collectors Handbook. Between the two I have enough information on this rifle available to me. I recommend it to anyone who wants a quick source of instructions for using and cleaning their Mosin Nagant. AND it is small enough to keep in the shooting or cleaning box so it is always handy.

Was it worth paying for? Perhaps. The content was basically what I expected The rifles are basically are their own manual; they're pretty self explanatory for anyone with a little critical thinking ability, but I did learn some interesting pointers. The bulk of this content is basically available on the internet. I will say though, it's nice to have a manual that has it all in one place; and it's a published book with a pedigree of similarly released manuals. That means it's a more reliable item for resale. Additionally, It's something nice to give with the rifle if ever parting with it.

Great little book. Was very informative as to the history of the rifle. Excellent reference manual to keep in your shooting bag. In response to one commenter, yes maybe you can get the information for free on the internet, but a the price of this little gem, it is not worth my time trying to find it.

Very useful book for Mosin-Nagant rifle enthusiast! Good book!

I've owned a couple of Mosin Nagant Rifles Tulia Armory 1938 & 39 91/30s. Having disassemble and cleaned the cosmaline from both prior to obtaining this book I found the disassemble and re-assembly instructions were apt. This is a brief reference for a casual collector who doesn't plan on adding any additional acquisitions. I also own an Arisaka Type 38 Rifle a "Mukkie" from the Manchurian Armory made in 1935. So the Mauser Bolt found in the two was a point of interest, as were the commonalities of design in that era.

Easy to read and good graphics

The bolt and trigger disassembly have only a few drawings, but lots of technical names. You have to look several pages over to find a labeled breakdown of the parts. Also, the book description says that "The binding is triple saddle-stitched", but it is only stapled twice. Overall, an okay book, but not outstanding by any means.
