Is it just me or did they finally fix the weird position holding on the mosin nagant 1907 model? they should’ve fixed this sooner than they did. but I guess better late then never…
What are you talking about?
And front sight is still unplayable and unrealistic
I like that he got different versions of holding the gun. Else all mosins would feel exactly the same.
They are the same

you’re picking on. They had no mold to cast. Then they welded a nail.
Both in the Russian Empire and in USSR there were very high gun quality standards, so no, that’s just irresponsible modeler

Years of designing and testing, making reliable and cheap family of guns from LMG to carbine
Yes but they’re all basically the same. That’s the glory of soviet weapons. You can fix them with a hammer.
What kind of fixing are you talking about?
I don’t know where you got your information, but from what I know the quality was very bad.
Quantity is quality in itself.
And very often it was the case that the same weapon produced in two different factories did not have compatible magazine wells.
The front sight and rear sight on mosin rifles varied from plant to plant. Huge factories and mass production of armaments in Russia were established under Stalin, not under Tsarism.
In order to maintain any part compatibility, we simplified production so much that the result is the PPSH43. Mosins were expensive to produce, and the versions made before the revolution were of much worse quality and jammed very often because the Russians did not pay attention to the quality of the parts made.

Actually the Mosin fails the simplicity test - that rail underneath the bolt is the main issue - it was a kludge to fix a problem.
Eg see about 35 minutes into this video which goes into considerable detail about the development of hte Mosin from the 1870’s - Small Arms of WWI Primer 074: Russian Mosin-Nagant 1891 - YouTube
Also - the Russians did allow looser tolerances in manufacture than other nations - this meant they could make more guns, and gave them a greater tolerance to getting “gummed up” and is another reason the gun feels different to others.
But that said all rifles are still precision pieces with much tighter tolerances than, say, your kitchen mixer!! They still have to be to cope with the stresses of shooting.
Ehh AVS? Mosin? SVT-38? Basically all Soviet tanks ? AVT?

Stealing stg 44 design and probably force some german designers by point blank aimed gun to their head after the war.

Simplifying overcomplicated design is now stealing? What’s next? Springfield 1903 is stolen gewehr 98?
All nazi designers went to the US, so prolly not, kekw.
