For the most part, I'll just clean it when I get home. Nice Dalebo. It's an awesome shooter. You won't be disappointed.

Got a pretty good deal on it - $100 for it and accessories (bayonet, cleaning kit, manual and sling). He is looking forward to going to the range with it (so am I).

Just soak the pins that hold it on in penetrating oil over night. Get some $5 push pin set from Lowes. Smack those pins out and the rear site just comes out. Pick this up from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Mosin-Nagant-2-7x32-Scope-91/dp/B0022U6GDG/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1259633904&sr=8-8 It mounts right into the same spot and uses the same pins. Just make absolutely sure you get some good thread locking compound for the two man screws. It acts as a shock absorber when you fire it and keeps them from easily coming back out. I got this: http://www.amazon.com/PRO-THREAD-LOCKING-COMPOUND-GPMR6060/dp/B001BHLSF2/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1259634059&sr=8-1-catcorr Works like a champ. -Jon Raymond,

The M60 fires a 7.62x51 NATO cartridge. Mouse, The caliber of this is 7.62×54R (R for rimmed and not Russian as is commonly mistaken). The M60 fires a 7.62×51 NATO cartridge.

Its in good condition and got it for 119.00 last weekend. I shot a 1944 Carbine a few weeks back and its an impressive weapon. This one has the long barrel like yours. A scope would really make it a great shooter at long distances. I got it home and ran a bore brush and some oil through and it looks good as new. I can't wait to get it to the range.

We never fired closer than 200 yards. I wouldn't wear the vest. I think the point of the OC pickup isn't to freak people out, but just to have nicely dressed normal people out picking up litter with firearms. We'll have to go to the range sometime. I'm kind of a military surplus rifle collector. I'm in Concord and a member of a range with a 0 to 500 yard rifle range located in Canterbury. You need to shoot an M1 Garand, it doesn't get any better. My 10 gun safe wont hold any more rifles....... I was a lowly Sergeant when I got out, but they trained us well in the ways of marksmanship.
