mosin nagant carbine question and small update
14 years ago
why is it soo friggin loud? I know its mostly due to the short barrel, but ive been seeing all these vids of people shooting theyres and most are nowhere near as loud as this thing, lol. there were only 3 ive seen that sound like mine, the rest range from a .30 cal m1 carbine sound to a to a really sharp fwap! sound. this is what the ones in most vids sound like that ive found on youtube

lol...well...not really, but damn near close. It actually surprised my dad at how load it was *he compared it to shooting a 3 inch mag shell from a 12 gauge. * Not sure if its the fact that its shorter than the actual 91/30 mosin nagant or the fact that the guy at the surplus store i bought it from gave me high velocity rounds *the only thing they had on the casing was 84 on one side and 21 on the other*. Regardless, its fun to shoot and the ammo is cheap. wanted to get the full sized model, and still might, but its hard to catch him there half the time.
anyways, in other news, ive just been slowly slowly doing stuff. Hadnt worked on anything sense i started work, but i need to take time like today to talk to friends and to draw stuff i need to finish. Got only 2 coms for
that i need to finish and so far hes been very patient with me *though i dont want to wear that out*, but im going to have to set everything aside one day and just get to it. Plus allot of other stuff i said id do for people but some how ended up being on the back burner for some reason or another.
Anyways, thats all for now. Gonna try to start saving up to get the parts needed for my nova *though i need to get a nice economy car with all the price rises on gas just this week, lol* gonna start putting my money to good use.

FA+

I think if anything it might be the ammo used.
