Who's Taller?
It's hard to tell from the pictures - and the fact that there are two different rifles - just who is taller here. Obviously there is only one solution possible: Get Lissa and Breda together at the Fourth Annual Northeast Bloggershoot for a back-to-back comparison! In any case, both of these girl gunbloggers are shorter than a 91/30...
It just goes to show that good things come in small packages!
That is all.

OK, now I gotta bring the Mosin to the next Appleseed Shoot - one of our instructors is a lady gunnie and, to quote Inigo Montoya, "I must know".
Heh.
Snap a pic and send it - we'll start a file... :)
It's the new metric system ... all communist and stuff. "Breda? Why, she's 0.9 Mosins. Jay? He's a tall one, 1.3 Mosins."
Heh. I should have shot that thing.
Also, I should have totally worn the tactical pigtails.
If you come to the Fourth Annual Northeast bloggershoot you can both shoot a Mosin Nagant 91/30 *and* wear tactical pigtails...
Just sayin'...
I've seen plenty of 91/30s, but never with the bayonet attached. Dang thing is hella long.
Who's taller?
I'm going with the Mosin. :)
And yes Breda, you need to shoot one. I mean how many folks can say they've shot a rifle that's taller than they are?
ZerCool - It's the other way around. A Mosin is 0.9 Bredas.
Mike - not with the bayonet mounted, which as we all know, is the only proper way to shoot a Mosin.
Jay,
Pretty soon we'll have to start measuring Lissa and Breda in smoots.
- Brad
Mike - not with the bayonet mounted, which as we all know, is the only proper way to shoot a Mosin.
D'oh! More like 1.1 Breda's. I didn't embiggen the picture and at 1st glance in the thumbnail it looked like Breda edged out the Mosin by a smidge.
I'll blame it on lack of coffee. Yeah, that's it.
"Breda? Why, she's 0.9 Mosins."
Yeah, but how many ARSHINS is that? :-D
(Damn. under the commies, all the old model 91's were converted to meters. I have one, regrettably not shootable anymore, that is stamped with an imerial crest and dated 1897. The rear sight leaf is bent slightly to---supposedly---convert it from arshins to meters. Neat.)
Awesomeness!!!!!
