In this episode I show the process of bedding your Mosin Nagant in order to increase accuracy. Bedding involves adding material to areas of the stock which contact the rifle action. By tightening these areas you remove any play between the action and the stock and therefore remove one more variable that can decrease accuracy potential.

These types of videos help me more than you can imagine living in the UK makes you Eric my main source of gun smithing, reloading and just general knowledge I went from knowing nothing about reloading to now reloading a few hundred rounds a week. Thank you very much and keep up the amazing work!!

@guilty_0f_greed32 7 лет назад

I went out to a gun show and bought my first Mosen nagant this weekend ive had a blast shooting it so far and have been looking for ways to improve accuracy. i found this video informative entertaining and overall helpful, thank you.

The Brownells glass bedding stuff is really great. You can get a "kit" from them which includes a dye that you can mix into the slow cure epoxy to darken it to deep dark walnut depending on how much you want to put in it, also included is a packet of fiberglass tiny bristles which you can add to he mixture, this stuff interlocks in all directions and makes a large-fill, much stronger, this epoxy remains slightly elastic, hence will not crack from recoil by design. I repaired a stock in the pistol grip completely broken on a Browning O/U (an inherently weak area) more than 20 years ago I've shot skeet with it for thousands of rounds over the years, it's just fine. really good stuff. Also, blue tape off any areas outside you don't want this stuff on, when it partially dries/no longer runny, remove the tape, other wise this stuff soaks into the wood and you might as well refinish the whole outside of the stock with it! Talk about waterproof! I smeared some trying to wipe it off and went ahead and used the palm of my hand rubbing it in and refinished the whole stock with it, awesome finish, in one coat, just have a but plate screw or something you can tie a string to and hang until dry, you can't have it touching anything and make sure the screw is in DEEP enough, or it can spin around in the wind outside and....ooh no! I learned the hard way.

@jarkoer 11 лет назад

Thanks for spending so much time on the Mosin Nagant! I just bought one at a gun show a couple of weeks ago after watching one of your zombie apocalypse videos. I'm very pleased with rifle, and this whole series you're doing on the gun has been very informative and has given me a lot of ideas.

@nathanielyoungman4454 Год назад

How are you enjoying the zombies?

@savosere3838 10 лет назад

If you bed the rear of your rifle, ensure you add a thin amount of electrical tape on the tang so that there is an intentional gap. The Russians left a generous amount of space behind the tang is so that it doesn't become a 2nd recoil lug. It was inletted that way to direct the recoil to the bolt that goes behind the recoil lug, instead of directing the force to the grip, which is usually the weakest part of the stock that cracks/splits. If you've already done what this video shows, you can still grind the bedding out the rear area and re-do it correctly.

@prekrasnie 10 лет назад

Great info, where did you get it?

@DT-vw7zs 10 лет назад

That's correct if the bolts loosen even a turn the recoil will push the whole action back and crack the grip just behind the tang when the back edge of the tang comes in contact with wood. That's why its exposed on original wood, so it moves back freely during failure. The rifle survives and a few stitches teach the soldier to check his weapon properly. My M53 was set in a modified savage stock and had this happen. It didn't crack luckily. Just took a chip out. I left the damage rather than refinish it to remind me to check the screws before shooting.

@Juhsga 7 лет назад

Can I bed my mosin with guerrilla wood glue?

@Mrgunsngear 11 лет назад

Great video brother. I've been debating doing this to one of my laminate M44s; looks like I'll be doing it for sure now.

@CelticArmory 11 лет назад

Some extra tips: Mask the stock with masking tape and paper in the areas where you're going to glass so that any spillage or overflow doesn't end up on the stock. A single layer of masking tape on the back surface of the tang will help prevent any future splitting of the wood. When the tape is removed it provides a micro gap so that when under recoil the tang isn't putting pressure on the stock. All recoil should be absorbed by the recoil lug. Petroleum Jelly on the bolts works great.

@renegadewa4183 10 лет назад

I recently bought my first Mosin 91/30 and either I got very lucky and got a really good one or the minor modifications I did to it worked like a charm. I took some very thin self adhesive cork and bedded the barrel top and bottom to dampen any vibration definitely giving the rifle a more solid feel. I inserted a very thin metal shim behind the recoil lug to make sure the action stays in place.. Another very thin washer under the seer spring reduced the trigger pull from around 8 to about 5 pounds. I also made a slight adjustment to the front sight post by sliding a piece of white electrical wire insulation over the post to lengthen it. It definitely brought the groups down to center target. I was shocked at how accurate and solid the rifle feels. I shot 3-5 inch groups at 100 yds. using 147, 174, 182, and 203 grain bullets and they all performed extremely well. It instantly became my favorite rifle after 1 day at the range with it. Almost makes me want to try to find another one. Great videos Eric. I've definitely learned a lot from you.

@ScuffedEngineer 9 лет назад

You actually killed your groups bedding the top and bottom of the barrel.. You want the barrel to be independent of everything really. Shouldn't mess with the harmonics of a barrel

@Hawk-gu8kj 9 лет назад

I also got a mosin I got mine for Christmas when I was 16/17? I have only two guns (with plans to get more) my marlin papoose takedown 22lr which was my first and the one I paid for myself and it's worth roughly $100-$200 the mosin I have (m91/30) my parents paid $130 it included the bayonet (they didn't know that but none the less were happy about it) two ammo pouches tool kit oil can and strap. even if someone offered me a thousand dollars for my mosin i would flat out refuse theirs no chance of me selling it anytime soon (if ever) I'll keep it as long as I'm alive my dad still has a 380 lorcin he bought and just plane wore it out the frame cracked and it became inoperable he still has it to this day and I plan on keeping mine till the day I die even if it becomes inoperable I love this rifle my parents didn't have a clue what it was when they bought it and are still talking about getting another/more mine had a terrible stock but I sanded it down stained it and coated it in polyurethane and it looks gorgeous and it's very accurate and I have done no other modification other then re coating the stock for a long time I've wanted to buy a reproduction PU scope I've been nervous about doing so as I wanted a more powerful scope I recently learned if I don't like the scope that comes with it I can replace it with another 1" diameter scope while still using the same mount so that's what I'm going to do all the same I love my rifle as a T-shirt i saw said "7.62x54, because sometimes the bad guys hide behind things" trust me it's a understatement I still want to try tracer rounds in it though

Glass bedding and free floating the barrel on a mosin makes it shoot SOOOOO much better!

aside from all the other off topic comments, yes we are all ticked off at the price gouging, I just wanted to say Thank You for the Gunsmithing tips and please keep them coming!

@llamalord111 11 лет назад

Absolutely can't wait for the trigger job video. Bedding the stock and polishing the trigger in key places can really help make the nagant a great project rifle.

@Prometheus203 11 лет назад

The 760 is capable of a high level of accuracy without modification. If you desire to get the most out of the gun you should focus on buying a high quality optic with good solid rings, finding the right factory ammunition or loading your own and practicing as often as possible.

@Blackacres 11 лет назад

Thanks for the video! Bought my first mosin last week after seeing your videos for the last few months. I'll give the glassing a try soon!

@khiemluong4591 7 лет назад

The Mosin's recoil lug is freaking huge 0-0

@toddy2519 10 лет назад

Eric, the recoil lug area is THE most important area of bedding! The rear is not all that critical except it must have some gap behind the tang. The recoil lug should only be bedded on the rear face of the rifle/front face of the stock. Bottom, front and sides should not be a glove fit. Adding electrical tape to these areas on the metal will insure there is a slight gap when the bedding is done. Be sure to use release agent on the electrical tape!!!! Also...the guard screw holes in the stock should be larger than the diameter of the screws so as not to disrupt the harmonics of the gun.

@warrioroh58d 11 лет назад

Absolutely does. Each rifle is different of course but all of the things you've listed are proven accuracy enhancers on the Mosin-Nagant's

@peelreg 9 лет назад

If your newly bedded action doers not want to pop loose from the stock, try putting it in the freezer over night. Then try it. I run a flat screw driver in from the front, between the barrel and stock. This always pops a frozen barrel loose.

@UhYeahNoThanks 11 лет назад

Still in pretty good shape. From the looks of it I got one of the unfired or at least seldom fired ones. Only some very minor rust on the crown, nothing that couldn't be removed with a jag brush (I think I just got a little lazy with the cleaning one day after shooting some cheap surplus)

@Acidicheartburn 11 лет назад

I'm so glad you made this video. I was apprehensive about attempting to bed my M38 until I saw this video. I might attempt this.

@ps2hacker 8 лет назад

You don't put any glass in your glass! That's missing the point entirely. They sell finely chopped fiberglass that you would mix in with your resin, then apply it. It will gel up, and make it easier to form, and it will be lighter, and a bunch stronger when it hardens. This is what we used to use to fix dings in our surfboards. Another thing you could do is save the sanding dust from the stock, and mix those in with the resin to help it match the original color of the wood. If it's going to come in contact with the hot barrel, mix graphite in it for resistance to heat. NASA uses graphite impregnated expoxy to construct some of the SRB's they use. If you have to bed the entire inside of it, lay out one layer of woven fiberglass mat, and brush all the air out so it turns clear.

@darkiee69 8 лет назад

+UNITED POLICE STATES OF AMERICA I would prefer to use glass microballoons over chopped fibreglass. But I do agree with you on the matter, he has no glass in that glass bedding, just resin.

@CelticArmory 11 лет назад

Another tip: use modeling clay to fill in small holes in the receiver to prevent glass from flowing into areas that could cause major binding when removing.

@nicolajc 11 лет назад

Very good. Golf ball like divot. Interesting analogy. Lets hope the audience plays golf. I always wondered how you and Barry kept so fit ;-)

@01PLeasant 11 лет назад

Please go to an office supply store and purchase an electronic postage scale for mixing your resin. Place cup 1 on the scale and turn on the scale. This will automatically compensate for the weight of the cup. Then pour in the first part of resin and do the math for the second. When mixing your resin you should be using a second cup to pour the mixture into. When mixing any two part compounds cup 1 will always have solution along the walls of the cup that is virtually impossible to mix properly.

@sysjls75 10 лет назад

Eric did an excellent job in glass bedding a Mosin. This technique is good if you just want to bed your rifle's stock or you are sporterizing your Mosin, but if you are doing an accurate restoration or building a PU sniper, this method would not be technically correct. The Russian arsenals and some actual snipers used bearing plates and leather strips wrapping the barrel to stabilize it. This is the method pre fiber glass and Loctite. The first PU conversion I did I was fortunate to find a rifle that was done at the arsenal. I did have to replace the leather bedding do to rot from age, but the end result was a period rifle that is a "Tack Driver".

@NCHeel 11 лет назад

No, a chemical bond would be if it actually bonded the metal and wood together at a molecular level. A mechanical bond is a form of adhesive bonding during which adhesive material physically locks into the crevices of the surface.

@01PLeasant 11 лет назад

This can result in "wet spots" within the glass that, once evaporated will cause voids within the finished glass. Mix in cup 1, then using a tall pour into cup 2 aiming for the same spot on the side wall of the cup. This will assure a properly mixed solution. Overtime a poorly mixed solution will, decompose, discolor, and can potentially fail completely. It may seem fine for awhile, but again, over time, poorly mixed solutions will compromise the job.

@XPsychowaffleX 11 лет назад

Archangel makes a kit for it. and they also figured out a detachable magazine that works with the action,which most other companies couldnt figure it out. google it :)

@XPsychowaffleX 11 лет назад

Bayonets are well known to negatively affect precision. Its not a big deal with short ranges, but at distance, it will definitely throw off shot placement. Taking the bayonet off is the best option to improve accuracy.

@Joeyandkelly1 11 лет назад

you need a "play list" section for these how to videos

@beechum1 7 лет назад

in the video, the applied material is resin, not glass. I've seen some comments about using microballoons and/or aerosil or cabosil. these both make the resin act more like a bondo depending on mix ratios and materials used. the resin used in the video is an epoxy resin. it's very different from polyester resin. your typical off the shelf bondo is a polyester resin. polyester has a higher shrink rate than epoxy and again depending on aerial mix and applications, could be a better solution. also, using a very light veil plain weave in the bedding would likely add some strength to it, and help distribute the recoil loads. again, all of this is depending on several factors that for garage purposes is not very scientific or engineered. so, caveat belongs to the installer.
