Default dangerous venture (kinda off topic)

i have an mosin nagant on layaway (hold) at an local gun shop.

The plan
when I go to buy something from places like walmart and drawing out $20 until i have the amount of money needed to pull the gun out of layaway.

when she says I go get it, (my wife controls the money tightly) i will use it to get an crony that I have had my eye on, ammo, or layaway another gun.


this plan could get me killed. lol

mosin nagants are awesome! i have a 1953 M44 thats a sweet shooter. Ive only shot the expensive 180gr soft point ammo but its perfect for hunting.

I want to come shoot it with you haha. I've always thought they looked fun to shoot, but I've never known anything about them so have always been hesitant to buy one.

oh they are a lot of fun. Heavy triggers but that can be reworked. I never thought much about them due to their low price but they are a STEAL if you find one in good shape. The hungarian and polish made nagants cost triple of a russian made nagant due to higher quality.
