.......February 8th 2009 it's 107 years ago Sergei Ivanovich Mosin died and was buried in Tula.

Together with Leon Nagant he was the designer of the Three Line Rifle or....the Mosin Nagant as the rifle was called in the west.

Leon Nagant (1833-1900)

If it wasn't for Mosin, I'd be collecting Nagant rifles now.
