Anywho, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. Since this unit has apparently been re-arsenal'd at some point, I guess it has little collector value. If the throat and muzzle gauge poorly, I may put a Criterion barrel on it. I'll shoot it first to see what's really going on but I want good grouping at long range. At least 100 yards, preferably 200.
I have my Schuster adjustable gas plug so I can experiment with commercial ammo but I have much more M2 ball and only a couple boxes of commercial stuff so that's not high on the list. The Schuster is mainly so I can contend with ammo shortages.
One of the forum members let me shoot his freshly maintained M1 at AAFG a couple of weekends ago. It is so much more refined than my Mosin but I love 'em both.
