Shootout!

Finally got the chance to take out my surplus gun collection! You can see me and my Dad holding my 1940 Finnish M91 mosin nagant (left) and my 1933 91/30 Russian mosin (right). Now, those are a couple of mean looking dudes don't you think? Turns out both guns shot pretty well... excellent, actually, considering they are 76 and 69 years old. I can't vouch for the two yahoos begind the sights, however. At 100+ yards, I didn't hit any of the targets, whereas Dad turned out to be a reasonable decent shot.
Here's Dad with my Yugoslavian M48 Mauser, testing the scope. Our friend Tony Reynold's and his British .303 Mark 4 Enfield and also did some pretty impressive shooting that day. All these guns take pretty large bullets, and my shoulder testified to that fact in the morning.
