I removed the rear sight base from mine and mounted a scope on the 3/8” dovetail beneath. There is no need to permanently modify the stock if you just buy quality scope rings meant to mount to a 3/8” dovetail. It holds zero and I can return it to its original configuration any time I want to.
For those who don't want to scratch or break any part on the gun, check out the Brass Stacker mount. It install right over the sight (only need to punch the 2 pins of the sight without remove the sight itself)
I just took mine off of my Mosin and I thought some others might find it useful to know that on my 1936 91/30 the rear site was held on with not only the 2 pins but also a set screw and solder. I had to use a small butane torch to heat the mount for almost 5 minutes and then several tries before it would come off with the brass punch and hammer. I had the rifle in a vice with a rag around it and then used a rag under the brass punch in order to not damage the barrel. Hope this helps!
I had to fast forward through the hacksaw scene because it was disturbing, but that was valuable information. I would try to fit that metal piece back on your shortened piece.
Thank You for this video. We're going to attempt this. I saw a few videos where they heat the rear sight mount up to ease its removal. To be honest I like it just the way it is. Fire, smoke, noise and accuracy! But my buddy already bought the scope mounts. Thanks again.
Seeing as the rear sight is mounted with pins could the rear sight be reattached? I have a 1926 Hex with all matching numbers. I don't have the room for another Mosin and would like to keep everything as original as possible but I'd like the option of mounting a scope cheaply without causing irreparable damage to the gun. I've been looking at after-market PU scopes but they all require drilling and tapping the receiver and I would like to avoid that.
Thank you for your post. I used the same mount and scope on my Mosin Nagant after watching your video. I had tried the other scope mounts that mount to the existing sight but that was a waste of money because of how unstable it was. This is the way to properly secure the scope mount. I was able to get one of the pins out of the sight but I had to get a gunsmith to remove the other one and the sight itself. They tried at the gun store but were unable to remove the pin as well. I would like to sometime find a better scope with better magnification, but for the price it is a good start. I can't see putting a $400 scope on a $80 gun, especially since I only take it to the range and use it to protect our home against bears. It must be working, because so far there haven't been any bears.
I dont think you can, I looked at my M44 last night. There is only one roll pin holding the sight leaf on. It appears to be a solid mount. I may check into it further.
right, many times they're soldered on... hit it with a small harbor freight torch (low setting & w/o the wood stock) or a soldering iron... some will say this'll hurt it- but- umm... they had to solder it on the 1st time, right? Oil it and tap it out. I think the above mount would be better with 1) locktite, 2) probably the ATI stock.
i recently got a 1 piece mount off of amazon similar to the UTG mount, except it is 75mm long, where as the UTG one is 100mm long which extends pass rail on the mosin.
i do recommend applying medium strength threadlocker loctite on all the screws of the mount --- as you may know the M91/30 packs alot of recoil and vibration when fired---
I have the same scope on my Mosin. Does it hold zero fine? do you like the scope? can you give me some input on it. Thanks For some reason my scope doesn't hold zero.
Mine is different. There is only one cross pin in the front. It seems in the back there is a screw securing the sight from the top instead. It is a very narrow flat head screw.
Hey i just got myself a 1932 Hex Receiver Mosin Nagant. I want to put a scope on it but i don't want to alter the rifle at all. In other words i don't want to cut the wood like you did. Is there a mount that fits without doing that type of alteration?
i hammered the shyt out of the sight the metal looks all fucked up nd the sight still hasnt moved. is it possible that the sight could be appoxyed? im thinking i can cut it off but all i got is a dremmel think itl work?
hey, im having major problems trying to get the base pins off the rear sight ... iv seen how yours just came right out... mine seem almost welded in place, i have bent 5 punches trying to take them out.... i am trying to install the brass stacker mount.... any advice would be much appreciated! i was thinking a c clamp with a punch but i dono..
I plan on using this for my Mosin. :) It fits great, without sawing the hand guard! Leapers Accushot 1-Pc Bi-directional Offset Mount w/1 Rings, High, 11mm Dovetail" model#:RGPMOFS38-25H4
hey man, I'm getting ready to trick out a mosin, and this was wicked helpful. how do those utg scope mounts hold in place with regular usage and recoil? do they stay tight and not get shaken out of place? thanks
Great video,help to me. Have two Mosins. One a stock upgrade n 8"off barrel. Now no front site. My gunsmith(good guy) says scope it but hard to do with atf stock. Soo now my prob solved n not a ton of money. Mosins site in from front sites not rear,best to scope it. Tks much.
Ok, I got on Amazon last night & ordered a scout scope (pistol scope) but I just went ahead & ordered a set of (2) scope rings instead of the one-piece set up, I I think they will be a little more versatile & will slide on easier than your one piece. I got a cheap pistol scope that had good reviews for durability because that is of GREAT importance, that recoil will ruin many scopes that lack durability.
So i bought my second mosin 91/30 and as im going to take the pins out, they are very hard to remove so hard in fact they are still there, did some research and some say it could be brazed some say sautered, but my question is, if it is either of those, how do i gglet them out?
@gasdorf t Mght if u got the correct dove tail adapter but why put such a small red dot on such a big rifle. Check back in a couple weeks I got a old 22 weaver adapter and a regular size red dot (cost 39$) I try and let u Know - Charles
i would have done that on a normal mosin yea, but the hex receiver's are a little more rare and ide not have messed with the stock on one of those, then again the forward strip of the stock can be replaced with another in the future.
I have a 1933 hexadecimal barrel and I took the two pins out but can't seem to get the sight off. there looks like a set screw in the top, but his has the same thing and it wasn't a screw. I'm just stuck lol
Model 1944 Mosin Nagant Rifle Handguards FYI Spare Parts if you need them Aim Surplus I have two Mosin one to play with and modify the other I keep in Original condition. - Charles New production Handguards for model 1944 (M44) Mosin Nagant Rifles. These are completely finished and equipped with the metal end caps as pictured. This is a great opportunity to replace a cracked, broken, or just plain ugly surplus M44 Handguard. While supplies last.
I'm having problems , I can't seem to find the pins in my weapon ..I've seen many vid Im.this and still not able to remove the site to get to the dove tails
Requires a scope with a long Eye Relief Because of Where the Scope Mounts 10 Inches or Greater. I also Tried a Reddot get one with a dovetail mount If you Got Good Eyes Should have no Problem - Charles
I like your video this looks like one of the better ways to mount a scope.As for your accuracy problem did you try a better ammo or bedding the action I had to bed an m38 just to make it fire close to the same spot every time.
@SilntObsvr Thanks for the Info - Charles You got any suggestion for the guys who are having problem getting the original site off even though the pins are out?
And if you're going to hacksaw stuff. (which is fine because it doestn stop the gun from firing) you may as well go with the ati stock. or the archangel for that mater.
I would get this mount, I like it but I ain't taking no saw to my stock, I can tell you that. I will have to go with something else. Why didn't the manufacturer design this better so it would fit the standard Moisin stock ??
I know Mosin Nagant is the most mass produced surplus rifle in the world.. But some of these things fought in WW2... I just couldn't do it. Maybe I'll get one of those polymer stocks that come with the rail. So when I put it away or sale it, I can make it back to it's original form under 5 minutes
@keonisitar The Problem most people are having when putting a scope on a Mosin is The recoil shakes things loose even though the mount will fit I am afraid you will have problems with it coming loose and looseing your zero. - Charles
I personally think you if you have the money you should always go with a pu scope or one that looks more original, a lot of people don't like this kind of mount but I have never used one my mosin has a drilled and taped rail mound over the chamber, they are harder to mount but I people say it works better and dose not ruin the look of your gun
tristan tompkins i used an Aim sport scope on my mosin using this style of mounting the scope. and it's amazing the scope holds a zero and at a 100 years the groupings are really close. i also have a bent bolt to go with my mosin. i wanted to do the pu scope on it but to scared to drill mount it. i just wanted and easy solution. it works and it goes good with my modern look to my rifle.
have to agree there is a special place in hell for people that mess with hex mosins but that scope mount setups is really smart thx for showing sumtin new
I removed my rear sight which I regret. I have a 1940 Mosin form the Tula factory and the sight is welded on using silver solder, not all models have this. I had to torch my barrel until it was red hot and smash it off with a 5lb sledge. Once removed I noticed I had the wrong mount, it was for a Mosin with the rear sight. They are many more selection and easier to install with out removing the sights. After my experience as blacksmith I woun't recommend it.
Matt Caldwell Yes the Glass got Loose and let the Nitrogen out so it got Foggy. The setup Originally worked fine don't know if the recoil of the mosin caused the glass to vibrate loose or not. I have a Red Dot on it now - Charles
But your still using the mount?, I ask cause mine is on the way, did it ever come loose? I was thinking of drilling holes in the mount and using the pins from the rear sight. Is it possible? Do I need to?
Matt Caldwell The Mount is just fine it hold great I did change to a mount that has a rail on it so I could mount my Red Dot the set screws hold just fine you have nothing to work about. even the scope could of been fix via warranty but I chose to shoot it - Charles
Im no gunsmith so I was thinking also get a 3/8 inch rail (piccatinny) add a Nikon scope mount (223) 1 piece) then put the scope on, I will never want the gun original again it was wierd looking when I bought from a guy) so i was going to JB weld the rail on the dove tail, Your input appreciated, but I do have the mount coming and the NC Star scope
Warne makes 3/8 dovetail .22 scope rings that will mount to the Mosin rear sight dovetail. they are made of solid steel. my 100mm Accu-Shot has been stellar on my 91/30, no issues after 1000 rounds. my next Mosin will get the steel Warne rings. just to try them out.
Thanks for the Info I Hope Viewers will read you Comment and try it out. Its a Little Late for me but hopefully we can save other Mosins I'll Order a New upper barrel cover and see how it works - Charles
If you don't hacksaw the part I did you could because all your doing is knocking out the pins on the sight you just have to align the original sight and put the pins back in and its back to original - Charles
@gothkid287 Its a Mod That Will Give you a Better Scope Mount but you do have to cut off the end of wood to get it to fit but it still look nice when u got it put together - Charles
kk, if it helps brass stacker makes solid steel parts and are 100% usa made, just remove pins thats it. if you want a good deal, go to amazon and search for "brass stacker scope mount", there is one for 59.00$ and shipping is free, they also will ship it first class to your destination. best deal i found on mine. hope it helps.
@HappyRock64 I have not tried it but There Should be No Reason You Couldn't because you only are driving out the roll pins and they can be reinstalled - Charles
I removed the rear sight base from mine and mounted a scope on the 3/8” dovetail beneath. There is no need to permanently modify the stock if you just buy quality scope rings meant to mount to a 3/8” dovetail. It holds zero and I can return it to its original configuration any time I want to.

I had to fast forward through the hacksaw scene because it was disturbing, but that was valuable information. I would try to fit that metal piece back on your shortened piece.
I have a replacement piece for it and can restore it anytime i want to but choose not to because I like the scope attachment
Thank You for this video. We're going to attempt this. I saw a few videos where they heat the rear sight mount up to ease its removal. To be honest I like it just the way it is. Fire, smoke, noise and accuracy! But my buddy already bought the scope mounts. Thanks again.
+Chuck Ward Good Luck let me know how it turns out - Charles
Thanks for the vid! I like the sound of the fan and the scanner in the background!
Cool vid!
Seeing as the rear sight is mounted with pins could the rear sight be reattached? I have a 1926 Hex with all matching numbers. I don't have the room for another Mosin and would like to keep everything as original as possible but I'd like the option of mounting a scope cheaply without causing irreparable damage to the gun. I've been looking at after-market PU scopes but they all require drilling and tapping the receiver and I would like to avoid that.
+Gillan Laureth of Seles It can be put back to normal when ever you want as long as you don't cut the board like I did - Charles
Cr Cook Awesome. I will probably invest in a mount so I won't have to worry about cutting the stock. Now if only I could find a bent bolt for sale....
Replacing the sight mount for scope adapter is best way..real solid and can be changed back if desired..scout scope works well
Thank you for your post. I used the same mount and scope on my Mosin Nagant after watching your video.

I dont think you can, I looked at my M44 last night. There is only one roll pin holding the sight leaf on. It appears to be a solid mount. I may check into it further.
I'm gonna try that same mount, although I think I will grind 1/4 " off each end the mount to make room for the stock.
You can buy a cantelever rail that mounts the same way with no cutting for $8 on amazon
Are there any restrictions to finding a scope for this weapon? Or can you attach just about any kind? I need recommended opinions.
No u need a long eye relief scope
right, many times they're soldered on... hit it with a small harbor freight torch (low setting & w/o the wood stock) or a soldering iron... some will say this'll hurt it- but- umm... they had to solder it on the 1st time, right?

The Mount has been Rock Solid it runs along the dove Tail and the three lock down screws keep it in Place - Charles
can you put the rear sight back on without welding or gunsmithing after you remove it?
Hey i just got myself a 1932 Hex Receiver Mosin Nagant. I want to put a scope on it but i don't want to alter the rifle at all. In other words i don't want to cut the wood like you did. Is there a mount that fits without doing that type of alteration?
Thanks for the information... I like it how my scope comes out.
I have a question, do you have to remove the metal end piece of the top wood hand guard to get it to fit?
What size punches are you using??
i hammered the shyt out of the sight the metal looks all fucked up nd the sight still hasnt moved. is it possible that the sight could be appoxyed? im thinking i can cut it off but all i got is a dremmel think itl work?
lol thanks for not editing knocking the camera off. great vid and i did not know about the dovetail.
Anytime There is a mount called the brass stacker search on RUclips you will find many videos - Charles
How does she hold up to the recoil without loctite or anything? or even torquing the allen screws for that matter.
Thanks for the vid, good stuff! Too funny with the camera antics!
hey, im having major problems trying to get the base pins off the rear sight ... iv seen how yours just came right out... mine seem almost welded in place, i have bent 5 punches trying to take them out.... i am trying to install the brass stacker mount.... any advice would be much appreciated! i was thinking a c clamp with a punch but i dono..
i punched the pins out easy but but the damn sight wont budg at all nd i used a hammer on it. im thinking is it possible to cut it off with a dremmal?
Glad you got it off Thanks for stopping by - Charles
I plan on using this for my Mosin. :) It fits great, without sawing the hand guard!

thanks
Yes This does stay in place very Well - Charles
@keonisitar I am trying it now with a Red Dot Sight it Seems to be Holding But The Adjustments on the Red Dot are Changing not the Mount - Charles
Think just rings without the support bar would hold up to the round?...so you don't have to cut off the trim?
Also is there any other scope mount that doesn't require cutting?
Not Sure the Sight is mounted the same way on a M44 never had one you could try and see then let me know - Charles
Great video,help to me. Have two Mosins. One a stock upgrade n 8"off barrel. Now no front site. My gunsmith(good guy) says scope it but hard to do with atf stock. Soo now my prob solved n not a ton of money. Mosins site in from front sites not rear,best to scope it. Tks much.

I got a cheap pistol scope that had good reviews for durability because that is of GREAT importance, that recoil will ruin many scopes that lack durability.
Do the holes on the receiver match up with the Allen screws on the scope mount?
This is so annoying. mine wont come out at all. I've tried torch, many diff. size punches, and I've only gottin 1 pin out. Any suggestions?
Sounds Like you tried everything May be my Viewers will chime in a suggestion - Charles
option 1. Air hammer.
option 2. Cut off wheel and cut it right down the middle.
Try some penetrating oil. As tight as it is, the oil will still penetrate (hence the name),
perpetrating oil and heat it up
It might be soldered on. You need a torch to remove it
i need help my mosin nagant does not have the 2 pins onthe iron sight
And I don't need to hacksaw it to put a rail on it, right?
So i bought my second mosin 91/30 and as im going to take the pins out, they are very hard to remove so hard in fact they are still there, did some research and some say it could be brazed some say sautered, but my question is, if it is either of those, how do i gglet them out?
Brian Pence I heard the same thing some have heated up the pins with a propane touché - Charles
Did i miss something? did you drill out the set screw?
Can you put the open sights back on with no problem
@gasdorf t Mght if u got the correct dove tail adapter but why put such a small red dot on such a big rifle. Check back in a couple weeks I got a old 22 weaver adapter and a regular size red dot (cost 39$) I try and let u Know - Charles
i would have done that on a normal mosin yea, but the hex receiver's are a little more rare and ide not have messed with the stock on one of those, then again the forward strip of the stock can be replaced with another in the future.
+Phyankord Thanks I got the parts to be semi original again so when ever I need or want to I can - Charles
I have a 1933 hexadecimal barrel and I took the two pins out but can't seem to get the sight off. there looks like a set screw in the top, but his has the same thing and it wasn't a screw. I'm just stuck lol
Do you think this mount would work so I could have a rail system?
Search amazon its the UTG 11mm to weaver adapter.

how is this setup holding up?
Question. Would you be able to reattach the original sight without causing damage to the rifle? (For future restoration)
So is the mount stable
I like your video this looks like one of the better ways to mount a scope.As for your accuracy problem did you try a better ammo or bedding the action I had to bed an m38 just to make it fire close to the same spot every time.
@SilntObsvr Thanks for the Info - Charles You got any suggestion for the guys who are having problem getting the original site off even though the pins are out?
But is it centered?
Its a solid metal mount which hold its place it's the scope I'm having a problem to hold zero from the recoil - Charles
Great Ideal Can you tell were you Found the Dove Tail Scope Rings.. How Well Do the Hold Zero .... - Charles
And if you're going to hacksaw stuff. (which is fine because it doestn stop the gun from firing) you may as well go with the ati stock. or the archangel for that mater.
Sorry I have not seen a type 53 I just used a Punch and tried one side then the other and it moved and came off - Charles
It's a 100 dollar rifle... What do you want him to put on it? A Larue mount and a Nightforce scope? o.0
For some reason o don't see a rim fire/airgun mount holding up on a mos in.
I would get this mount, I like it but I ain't taking no saw to my stock, I can tell you that.
I will have to go with something else. Why didn't the manufacturer design this better so it would fit the standard Moisin stock ??
I know Mosin Nagant is the most mass produced surplus rifle in the world.. But some of these things fought in WW2... I just couldn't do it. Maybe I'll get one of those polymer stocks that come with the rail. So when I put it away or sale it, I can make it back to it's original form under 5 minutes

I cringed when you brought a hacksaw out for that stock...could of just got new scope mounts
is it a 22 or 11mm base you ve put on ?
I love the video. Think I will do the same to a short mosin I use for deer season.
@keonisitar The Problem most people are having when putting a scope on a Mosin is The recoil shakes things loose even though the mount will fit I am afraid you will have problems with it coming loose and looseing your zero. - Charles
Yes in my small town you know everyone they talk about its better than tv - Charles
After almost a year are you still happy with this set up?
Thanks for the vids
Nope it's junk lol
i can see that the scope is a bit far.. can you still see through the scope with out any scope shadow?
Yes you can you must make sure you get a scope with a Long eye relief like one made for a pistol - Charles
sorry for the late reply had some unfinished business to attend to. thanks crook for the help. what scope do you recommend?
I personally think you if you have the money you should always go with a pu scope or one that looks more original, a lot of people don't like this kind of mount but I have never used one my mosin has a drilled and taped rail mound over the chamber, they are harder to mount but I people say it works better and dose not ruin the look of your gun
tristan tompkins i used an Aim sport scope on my mosin using this style of mounting the scope. and it's amazing the scope holds a zero and at a 100 years the groupings are really close. i also have a bent bolt to go with my mosin. i wanted to do the pu scope on it but to scared to drill mount it. i just wanted and easy solution. it works and it goes good with my modern look to my rifle.
do you have a pistol scope on it ? I have heard that it is not very good with out one you have shadows
have to agree there is a special place in hell for people that mess with hex mosins but that scope mount setups is really smart thx for showing sumtin new
Yes The rings don fit exactly without cutting it but it will still hold the things in place - Charles
do u have to use a pistol scope
...sometimes the rear sight is soldered on, no big deal, you just need to hit it with a propane torch while tapping it off...
I removed my rear sight which I regret. I have a 1940 Mosin form the Tula factory and the sight is welded on using silver solder, not all models have this. I had to torch my barrel until it was red hot and smash it off with a 5lb sledge. Once removed I noticed I had the wrong mount, it was for a Mosin with the rear sight. They are many more selection and easier to install with out removing the sights. After my experience as blacksmith I woun't recommend it.
can you still use stripper clips with this scope mount?
does it stay zeroed
Ok so did you shoot your Nc star scope? Did this setup on Mosin work for you? is it still being used
Matt Caldwell Yes the Glass got Loose and let the Nitrogen out so it got Foggy. The setup Originally worked fine don't know if the recoil of the mosin caused the glass to vibrate loose or not. I have a Red Dot on it now - Charles
But your still using the mount?, I ask cause mine is on the way, did it ever come loose? I was thinking of drilling holes in the mount and using the pins from the rear sight. Is it possible? Do I need to?
Matt Caldwell The Mount is just fine it hold great I did change to a mount that has a rail on it so I could mount my Red Dot the set screws hold just fine you have nothing to work about. even the scope could of been fix via warranty but I chose to shoot it - Charles
so the screws on side hold on the dovetail pretty good I guess
Im no gunsmith so I was thinking also get a 3/8 inch rail (piccatinny) add a Nikon scope mount (223) 1 piece) then put the scope on, I will never want the gun original again it was wierd looking when I bought from a guy) so i was going to JB weld the rail on the dove tail, Your input appreciated, but I do have the mount coming and the NC Star scope
This is my second hex I kept the first one Original and bought this one to play with - Charles
so can you put the original sight back on or us this permanent???
You can put back the old sights but it might be a bit difficult
Although a part of the gun will be cut sooooooo
If you don't torq the screw it will come loose I check mine every once in awhile It stays better now that its setteled in - Charles
Thanks for the video and info man .. nagants are fun projects :)
Thanks for the info and stopping by - Charles
I wonder if that mount would fit a pu scope
Warne makes 3/8 dovetail .22 scope rings that will mount to the Mosin rear sight dovetail. they are made of solid steel. my 100mm Accu-Shot has been stellar on my 91/30, no issues after 1000 rounds. my next Mosin will get the steel Warne rings. just to try them out.
Thanks for the info I think TNP reviewed this and he gaver it very high marks - Charles
What size is that punch?
looks like it was silver soldered as well as pinned, mine was silver soldered pinned and setscrewed
Are you using a drone to film? sounds like it..
Nope just a tripod - Charles
Thanks for the Info I Hope Viewers will read you Comment and try it out. Its a Little Late for me but hopefully we can save other Mosins I'll Order a New upper barrel cover and see how it works - Charles
If you don't hacksaw the part I did you could because all your doing is knocking out the pins on the sight you just have to align the original sight and put the pins back in and its back to original - Charles
@gothkid287 Its a Mod That Will Give you a Better Scope Mount but you do have to cut off the end of wood to get it to fit but it still look nice when u got it put together - Charles
kk, if it helps brass stacker makes solid steel parts and are 100% usa made, just remove pins thats it. if you want a good deal, go to amazon and search for "brass stacker scope mount", there is one for 59.00$ and shipping is free, they also will ship it first class to your destination. best deal i found on mine. hope it helps.
@HappyRock64 I have not tried it but There Should be No Reason You Couldn't because you only are driving out the roll pins and they can be reinstalled - Charles
it might also their is some comments below that describe other options that you could also try - Charles
