Mosin Nagant Barrel Removal

Ive been collecting and playing with Mosys and finally made a bad purchase. I ended up with an M44 carbine with a shotgun barrel, no rifling at all. I know these aren't really worth rebarreling but I thought a 91 action might make a nice piece of desk art. Maybe I will even rebarrel it someday!

Anyone know someone local who can remove the barrel? ts no good so destroying it is fine as long as the action isn't harmed.

These guys can tell you. If you collect Mosins you're probably already a member but if not, here's their site.

That's a photobucket link. At least it was for me

It's a pain and will probably cost you more than its worth.

was it possibly actually re barreled as a .410 I have seen one once.

No, I just got screwed....

Yeah, Im on MILSURP all the time. They say dont bother, just sell the parts and get what I can back.
