About Me
My name is Brandon Herrera. I'm the owner and operator of The AK Guy Inc, a 07 Firearm Manufacturer based out of Fayetteville, NC. I also co-own Stark Media Group, and designed the rifle known as the AK-50.
I've started to dedicate this CZcams channel above all to have fun, but also as a way to document my entrepreneurial journey for the next few years as I try to grow my companies. Hopefully, people can learn from my example, successes, and failures.
Either way, I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, and I hope it's just as fun to follow along!

Fun fact about the Mosin, Simo Hayha, nicknamed The White Death, actually used a variant of the Mosin for his service rifle, the M 28-30. The man racked up 259 official kills with said Mosin variant during the Winter War.
Saint Simo used only the issue iron sights, no optic, to prevent the enemy spotting a lens glare. He also kept snow in his mouth to prevent his breath from steaming.
500+ kills
@@Jaderabbit9 Yes, but the majority of his kills were with the KP-31.

i have a repro PU, and its actually one of my favorites. scope mount is a repro, but the scope itself is original, dated 1948 (rifle is '42). all things considered, its pretty damn clear. amazingly enough, its sub MOA with new 150 gr softies. it has spent the odd day here or there in the woods during hunting season
Что довольно странно,Брэндон не стал рассказывать нам про конструкцию ствола.Ствол в снайперской версии винтовки Мосина имеет коническую форму и к дульному срезу ствол становится меньше чем у затвора.Угол сужения ствола равен 3 градуса.
По легенде это только Тульские и только с одной опытной производственной линии.
На практике такие стволы не обнаружены ещё ни кем.
@@user-ie5dm4sp1p данная особенность была внесена в конструкторскую документацию, но начало войны не позволило создать необходимую производственную линию (хотя малое количество образцов должно было поступить в РККА). После эвакуации производства отбор винтовок на роль "снайперских" в ходе отстрела валовых стволов. При разбросе не более 2-3 см на 100м винтовке переводилась в разряд высокоточных.
Само же сбегание ствола к дульному срезу позволяет изменить баланс винтовки. Так же подобная конструкция ствола должна была, в теории, нивелировать влияние окружающей среды на геометрию "разгонной" части ствола.

The point about old scopes is spot on. A thirty dollar cheap Walmart riflescope will beat the highest quality 1930s-1940s scopes by a mile.
It was so bad that a Finnish soldier just ditched it altogether.
It only served to give his position away
Yeah, optics technology and cost of manufacturing has come a long way.
@ET Hardcorgamer exactly right, his name was simo häyhä and after the winter war he lived on for 62 more years, died at 97 years.
@ET Hardcorgamer iron sights are all he needed to become the world’s most successful sniper.
@ET Hardcorgamer It was actually a HEIAP or similar as well
We need a whole video dedicated to just famous bolt guns like the Springfield 1903, the Lee Enfield, the Kar98k, etc.
But... the G43 is not a bolt gun.
@Nick Borodinov yeah but they're informative, not Brandon Education™ informative...
though you could say it's not relevant to the channel
There's a pretty good channel out there that does all kinds of experiments and shooting with his No4 and SMLE, as well as earlier British rifles like the Martini-Henry.
I'd also throw in a Russian contract Winchester 1895. I know it's a lever gun and it's probably rare to find today,but being used in WW1 (and to a lesser extent in WW2),it would be cool to see how it would compare to contemporary bolt guns.
You also need the Arisaka. I would also say the french MAS 36. But we don't really need to know what they sound like when they hit the ground.
My favorite thing about the Mossy Nugget is the steel butt plate slamming into my shoulder on a cold winters day. Feels amazing.

I always heard that the marking denote paces rather than meters (which would be similar). Anyone else heard that?
Also I would have liked Brandon to show the accuracy of the PU sniper. With good Russian ammo I can achieve sub-MOA at 100 yards.
@ammo cache the Mosins were actually marked in Arshin, the Imperial Russian cubit, measured at roughly .7m if I remember it correctly
@@SanguineDarkfire you are correct! Could not remember the unit of measurement. Thanks.

Передайте Брендону что называть "Враг у ворот" хорошим фильмом - это тоже самое что назвать отряд 731 самыми добрыми людьми за всю историю человечества
Для американцев это хороший фильм о "плохих совках" пока они были хорошими.
от имени всех американцев, враг у ворот - дерьмо, а Брэндон сумасшедший
Brandon, Radmir asked to let you know that to call Enemy at the Gate a good movie is about the same as calling Unit 731 the nicest people in humankind history.
Can somebody explain this to me in my small minded American way? Like what is unit 731?
@@megake12 this is a detachment of Japanese soldiers like the SS, and even worse , they were engaged in research in the field of biological weapons
the reason it goes out to 2k is for massed infantry volley fire. you're aiming at the massed formation charging you from 2km(1 1/4 miles) away, not trying to send the enemy commander's Pickelhaube flying at that distance. its basically a holdover from the days of Napoleonic warfare, and hey, if the round "can" go that far, why not?
in a way that fucking terrefying, imagien your standing with your pals ready to march on the enemy city and suddenly some of your guys are falling over dead and hundreds of small dust pops apere around you and ends with a tiny sound of thunder.
Thate,what I had always thought thanks for verifying.
@@bardedkgaming2529 Terrifying, but that's what makes it so useful.
the best battles (for your side) are the ones where the enemy nopes right on out of there and routs before you take casualties.
@@bardedkgaming2529 If you look at Lee Enfield and Lee Metford rifles before and during the early years of WW1 they had the same idea with a 'volley sight' on the side of the rifle.
You would use the front 'dial' to elevate the rifle to an approximate range and the rear peep sight to see through.
The idea was that before belt-fed MGs you still wanted your troops to be able to lay a field of suppressing fire even if it was beyond the normal range your average rifleman might fire at.
In principle it was similar to archers firing volleys of arrows in a beaten area, are all the projectiles going to find their mark? of course not, but if even a dozen out of a formation of 100+ men standing on line managed to hit their mark, that would still be perfectly acceptable at 2,000 meters.
The mosin nagant is so ridiculously overpriced nowadays. Who else remembers when you used to be able to pick them up at Bass pro for $89
There was one in my local store for $1009.99. I almost threw up lol
I got mine with a spam can of ammo for $49. I miss those days.
@@CampVictoria I honestly don't know why people hate them so much, they work and are more accurate than the average shooter but here we are
I remember seeing them on the weekly ad at big 5 for $100 and under.
You say overpriced, but nobody in the US could make a Mosin and sell it under $300, so realistically the surplus subsidization is just going away.
One of my Favorite WW2 sniper. I actually shot the Nagant plenty of times with friends. I love my American Rifles but the Russians knew how to make some beautiful and good rifles. Any WW2 Game that allows you to Snipe, The Mosin always is my Main Pick of a Sniper Rifle. Sniper Elite 2-4 are what I loved it in. I actually maxed mine in SE4. My Longest Shot on SE4 is carried out by one
"Enemy at the Gates" - is a bad movie, Brandon.
"Враг у ворот" - это плохой фильм, Брендон
Okey
Окей
Очень плохой фильм . Абсолютно не достоверный.
И жутко русофобный и антисоветский
Instead of that pulp fiction movie, one is better off reading the first-hand memoir of Zaitsev, one of the best snipers who fought in Stalingrad.

It's completely subjective.

Enemy at the Gates was a good movie!
"Ivan, why is snow speaking Finnish?"
Did you know; Vassili Zaitsev was a Russian Navy Pencil pusher before being moved into infantry service, also that Enemy Of The Gates is basically the Russian version of Braveheart, complete nonsense and no where near historically accurate

I like Henry's 9-Hole Review version better!
Watching cuz he said nobody watched this D:
As a descendant of the rifle's inventor makes me proud to see you make great content of this historic gun.
🙌🏼🇷🇺
Wait, you are?
Now that's some legit genetic lottery if I ever heard any!
@@thefiresworddragon927 yes my father immigrated From Russia almost 30 years ago. He was named Sergey after his great great grandfather the creator of the rifle. He now lives in Papua New Guinea, with his family. We still carry his the name Mosin with pride.
Although we know we aren't Russians anymore, we still keep in touch back home with other Mosin relatives.
@@hardcharging nothing generic here. Mosin is a popular name in Russia but most of them are not direct descendants, we are actually descended our knowledge of this pasted down. After his death in Sestroresk one of his sons moved to the city Orel. City where my father is from.
For anyone with a Mosin that has a hard to cycle bolt: sometimes it's cosmoline on the receiver lugs that you can't see. Fire a few rounds, cosmo gets hot, bolt is harder to cycle. The tip for that: take a shotgun bore brush, put it on a segment of cleaning rod without the handle on the end. Dip the bore brush in Hoppes, stick it into the receiver where the lugs are, and then chuck the cleaning rod into an electric drill and run it for 10 seconds. Clean the dried cosmoline out and the bolt won't stick nearly as bad after you fire a few rounds. Or maybe it will, wartime production stuff isn't known for high quality and your receiver and bolt lugs may not mate up well.
Great tip thanks!
Rimlock also occasionally
Mine is so smooth it's unreal. Bought it like that a couple of months ago
@@agoogleaccount2861 If your MN has rimlock you have a mechanical problem in the magazine. Take a look....there should be a little spring on the side that holds the cartridge under the one being fed so it's not pushing up hard against it which allows the top round to slide off without rimlock. When the bolt goes into battery this little spring is pushed back to release that round so it'll feed next then when the bolt is opened it grabs the next round...repeat. The cartridge rim is also angled to help prevent them binding together.
I wish we had a class on how to run a bolt gun...not your fault Brandon...you're young, but in words: With open hand and palm facing up, smack bolt open with heel of hand, then cup hand around bolt and pull to rear. Turn hand around again with open hand shove bolt home and down to lock. No...'grab bolt knobbie with fingers thing. Try it...you'll like it!!
@@recoilrob324 wrong kinda rimlock. Rimlock during ejection of spent cartridge. Handle hard to lift chamber very tight. Little too new condition sometimes this happens with em especially with some of the combloc era satellite state produced surplus ammo. Maybe the rim runs
.003 wider ? . Its the portion behind the chamber. You'll see some little imperfection where the rim scrapes. And rub marks. Just remove that so it doesn't rub and its good generally

Shooting White Claws, Brandon's not defending the Motherland, but his liver
Thanks for the video, Brandon! In fact, the Mosin rifle is now very relevant, it is cheap, it is reliable, and it is also a museum piece.
They were cheap in late 90’s and early 2000’s i bought both of mine for 650 a peice
The 2000m sight was kinda useful during WW1, where they literally were used for indirect fire. Pretty much every country involved did it.
i mean, its pretty hard to do much of anything when bullets are raining down upon your position. it forces the enemy to either retreat or attack, giving you the upper hand and forcing them to act on your time table, not theirs.
Brandon is uncomfortable with pog, yet he has come to accept it. His transformation is going well.
*insert evil laughter here*
:pog:
Just went back and started rewatching all your older videos, you have me rollin in my office. 600 to white claw in a split second. Love it.
There’s a 1941 Mosin at the Commemorative Air Force museum in St. Charles County. I was there recently and they have a display of weapons from Allied and Axis forces. Next year will be the 1942 weapons and so on. The Commemorative Air Force Show Me Wing houses and flies a B25J Mitchell Army bomber and a TBM Avenger Navy torpedo bomber. They’re one of many Commemorative Air Force wings around the country that are keeping these Warbirds flying. If you have a wing in your area and are interested in learning about the history of WWII aircraft, I highly recommend visiting one.

Me: shit he knows about Brandon Herrera rule 34
Fuck fuck fuck he can’t find it no no no I need that shit to live
It’d be super cool to see if Brandon and his crew could make a functioning ak in .22 lr
Some companies already offer some AK's in .22lr, I've seen some German company makes them for the euro market and south America, no idea about US imports tho
Pretty sure them make drop in kits for the AKM that are really cheap and functional. They have like a barrel sleeve bolt thing.
No reason. .22lr is too low powered to use an AK gas system, so it’s basically just what all the others are which is a Ruger 10/22 dressed up like an AK
@@BrandonHerrera That’s the challenge, you would need to use something like a gas spring that would in essence just need a little extra pressure from the round to make it cycle. Hahaha
@@johnkremple5056 add in a co2 cartridge? :D
So fun fact about the iron sights sighting out to 2000 meters is that was done as a common practice with bolt actions as just before WW1 armies still used volley fire which the 2000 meter mark was used for to aim over your friend
Had a horrific nightmare that Brandon was on bathsalts, freaking out in my front yard whilst he was covered in wooden clothespins. Was relieved to see him using Soviet arms

Look it up on Wikipedia, the Mosin has been in service from 1891 to present. 130 years and counting... No Shit!
Best part, there's some American ones, from Remington.
@@akstormtrooper508 i had the chance to buy 2 Remington built mosins last year...shoulda bought them...
Boy, Escape from Tarkov really nailed the gunshot and the bolt's sound.
bro, the way u have to lift the thing to pull it back, its giving me nostalgia from an old toy gun i used to have, very cool
i had one and loved that it came with the 10 inch spike bayonet! So in case you ran out of bullets, you could just hurl the rifle like a javelin
Боюсь, что в оригинале не было откидных штыков. Это все проделки Китая!! Все русские мосинки имели крепления, на дуле и туда в ручную, они цеплялись.

2:38 was way too personal like he stared directly into my damn soul 😂
To increase accuracy and speed when cycling the bolt: do not break check weld, using the first finger and middle finger pull back the bullcock (charging the bolt), using the same two fingers cycle the bolt, fire, repeat

even just like 10 years ago!
I remember adding them to orders to get free shipping, or because the cost of the rifle to get free shipping was the same as the shipping costs.
Wished I had picked up a crate of them when I could to make a coffee table out of.

I have a 1943 Mosin that I'm pretty sure was a PU that was converted post war, there's a few signs that it was, but I'm not willing to have the receiver drilled and tapped to mount the scope. I love the rifle, such a sweet shooting gun.
Fun fact: for those not tracking, the large graduation on the iron sites was for (or a left over of) volley fire drills
Yes. Back in 1894 trench warfare and machineguns weren't a thing yet, and a platoon of riflemen volley-firing _approximately that way_ was SOP for suppressive fire.

I don’t watch Red Dawn for historical accuracy either
Read the book "Notes of a russian sniper" (Vasili Zaitsevs autobiography) to get a good idea where the movie got it right (very rarely) and where it got it wrong (which is most of the movie).

Yea, I didnt buy that he banged that chick niether.
Отличный видеоролик, спасибо. Есть возможность снять видеоролик сравнив винтовки Мосина и Маузера 98к., визуально и на пробиваемость пули?
I would love to see that (I do not know Russian I just used the CZcams translate feature)
Me too but great question
я надеюсь, что он тоже это делает
@@G_moneyy yeah, would be really cool
@@chuckEcheddarcheese missed opportunity to quote Justin Hammer from iron man 2
A Lee-Enfield Number 4 sniper accurised by Holland and Holland in 0.303 would be a great gun to review and for your collection Brandon. Used by the British Army up to the mid 1960s when 7.62 was introduced!
I always wanted a Mosin so bad but I was lucky enough to touch one at a gun shop back in highschool it became a core memory
"Wait until the bombers are directly overhead..." Call of Duty World at War during the "we totally aren't plagiarizing Enemy at the Gates, please don't sue us...." mission.
Y'know Vasilis Zaitsev was a Russian Navy pencil pusher before being pushed into infantry service? Also Enemy At The Gates is an utter nonsense film, kinda like the Russian Braveheart
someone's clearly never played COD 1
Homage is a word. No need to get angry on behalf of cinema producers who... Don't care.
Call of Duty: Finest Hour, went much much harder with the enemy at the gates scenes
Im sure they did shit like that in war too, is that a crime too? At least it was like paying respect to the men who died in the war rather than watching a glorified film, although call of duty is almost worse than any movie nowadays. Pretty sad they had something good and pretty much shit all over it

@Sarah Riemonn nice one
@Sarah Riemonn great answer my guy likes how you showed your work on the math.
If Camomo- the Rust Admin, can do the stuff he does to catch cheaters in real life, he would probably shove a High Velocity Rocket up these two Bot tards' rear ends.
@@keenices1972 damn lmao why not an incendiary rocket.
A man of culture 😌
When you think of where they came from getting optics like that 100% made it better🤙🏽
Rimmed for the extractors pleasure. Love it.
Brandon wearing a "lets go Brandon" T-shirt while shooting a communist sniper is too meta for me.
What about him wearing "let's go brandon" and also wearing "black rifle coffee" shirts?
More Russians have been killed with the mosin than any other rifle (excluding rifles of German origin)
@@kaiservon2936 ok, nazi
Don't be foolish Comrade. It is the Working Class Revolution. Socialism for one Nation, under God!
@@bad_kojima what in my name, profile picture, or reply gives any indication whatsoever that I would be a Nazi?
With the rain and not having much to do inside, this video came in clutch, thanks brandon
@Sarah Riemonn wtf is that
I also love my Mosin PU. It was one of those gun show buys where everyone on my way out wants to buy it from me.
Funny thing is we had actually just got our hands on a mosin and were trying it out the weekend prior to this video being uploaded. Can confirm really fun to shoot. Ours doesn't have a PU though we need one
Why have I not seen a series of Brandon and Ian going through the history of Russian guns and AK variants? Now that you are in Texas he is basically your neighbor lol
Ian did a similar setup with Russian firearms historian max poplienker
@@pearson935 Popenker! (Максим Попенкер)
Isn’t Ian in Arizona?
Ooooo we need that
Да, 2000м на открытом прицел, это именно для залповой (не прицельной) стрельбы подразделением с закрытых позиций, на дистанцию рубежа концентрации подразделений противника перед атакой. Все это очень чётко прописано в устава и наставления времен первой мировой.
How many times has Brandon caused gunbroker to instantly sell every model of every gun that he’s featured in a video? Who else immediately went shopping during or after a vid?
Jokes on you I bought a mosin today before I watched this video
My grandpa have 1 of those here in Switzerland, and I used it before, only was allowed to fire 3 shots, I prefer the Kar 98k.
@@gunnygunz4563 good man
@@gunnygunz4563 jokes on you, I bought one 10 years before I watched this video
@@country928 about 450 in decent condition, I'm not sure how well they sell now but I sure as heck wouldn't pay that, you can get a pretty nice rifle for that kind of money, mosins are cool, but they'll never be worth over 150 bucks, and even that is pushing it imo
I'm a little sad that I didn't saw a clip being use at all but at the same time happy to see you actually shooting one for us. Keep on shooting bro
Cool Video. Thanks.
Finnish soldier Simo Häyhä was known as "The White Death", credited with 500 kills in 100 days, 259 verified "sniper" kills and the balance with his Suomi KP/-31 sub machine gun.
Häyhä didn't use a scope. Some believe that his personal claim to 500 kills is a modest underestimation while others believe the number to be far less but his "sniper" kills were verified.
Lol I can see the "White Death" being called racist and his name will be changed in the coming years.
@@Assdafflabaff I’d say no. The only people that really care or even know about him don’t give a crap.
Here's my feeble attempt at pretending to be as good as Simo Häyhä: czcams.com/video/oakqgOZt_5c/video.html
@@thunderring8056 I was half-joking but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it really happened these days. Lots of our heroes aren't well known until the enemy shines a spotlight on them and directs all the NPCS to make a big fuss. Like all the statues being torn down lately.
He did it with irons so that the enemy could never spot the glare/shine from a scope
Brandon made a big oopies by talking about “enemy at the gates” the internet is now obligated to harass you until you do gun builder reacts to enemy at the gates video
I personally love the mosin its a must have for me its a part of history and it actually is pretty good
You mentioned Dugan Ashley. He's really suffering from MS right now and is deteriorating. There is a place to donate some money to him.
The scope could be original to the gun. They were made in different factories and thus would have different serial numbers. I had the same thought when i bought my sniper. One way to find out if it was original or not is to look up the scopes serial number. If it was built in the same year as the rifle it will show that. And thus would technically be "Original" to the rifle.
Thanks
The Mosin could have really benefited from the Steyr m95 straight pull bolt action. Thing of beauty
Hey I think it would be interesting to see a video of you going through your collection talking about favorites, and least favorites and why.
Brandon: "I have another target in mind tho, that I think might really just be necessary."
Me: *"A german!"*
Brandon: "We're going to use the nugget to destroy some nuggets."
Me: "Awww"
You make me smile. Take like.
As a German, I lol'd.
In that case, he should have shot some German sausages instead of nuggets.
They're the wurst.
@@cerberaodollam As a German, I expected you to duck. ROFL would work as a counter-sniper measure, too. LOL - not so much.
Am disappoint that he didn’t shoot a bootleg MP3 player
Brandon actually hunted his lunch today. A warm whiteclaw and mc nuggies.
Friggin love it. They sold Mosin’s at the Exchange’s in Alaska for $79. Big boom and fireball with ammo out the spam can.
Only thing I would like to point out is that it is not 2000 Meters, Russia had their own versions of yards/meter measurements and that is what it is. lokot or shag or Arshin. Depending on the weapon. on a Mosin it is probably Arshin (Which is about a yard) Which is still about 1400 Meters but hey Motherland and the optimism.
Love the videos!
As someone who doesn't shoot for a living you need a non shooter to show that there is in fact recoil for the guns you shoot.
as someone who "rarely" shoots... almost ever... (shot my first gun at 3 but have had years between shooting) recoil ain't that bad, like, at all... (of course depending on the caliber) recoil is more like a "thump" than a punch. of course it fucks up your sight picture, but as far as worrying for your shoulder... I wouldn't.
7.62 x 54R is around .308 win, the recoil isn't that bad at all even if you are a new shooter. Probably shouldn't be the first round you ever fire but there is worse. Even at 6'0 155 lbs and a regular (once every few months) the recoil is almost negligible on intermediate rifle cartridges like this. Youll have maybe 3 inches of muzzle rise at max if you're my size or better and have some concept of recoil control. Granted I also shoot 300 win mag and feel as though it has less recoil than most people state so i may be an exception.
Put the buttstock firmly into your shoulder, and stand firm with a forward lean. A gun's recoil just feels like a light love tap from the spirit of American freedom.
BoS 🤢
Ah yes Comrade Brandon is back to relieve my boredom with his antique firearms and his antics.
Great rifle, SO much history
