Save the 50 bucks gunsmithing if you can do it yourself.
With this gun, you could hunt anything from whitetails, antelope to black bear, elk, hog and caribou. Might not be the prettiest or coolest rig at deer camp but that's part of the charm

i had plans on doing that also but after i got the gun i felt very unsafe with it. the safety on mine was very hard to opperate and it didn't work 100 % or the time. but that's just me. oh and their triggers are crap. go on google and type in replacement moisin nagant trigger... think they're teflon coated or something. i can't remember the sight but they seemed like they would help alot.
