    Default New Mosin M44...Get it checked by a gunsmith?

    Just picked up my new Mosin M44 from LockNLoad and other than cleaning the snot out of it, should I have it checked by a gunsmith? I noticed the whole assembly has a little wiggle room in the stock, not sure if that is normal or not. Other than that the bolt is smooth like butter and the stock is pretty clean, almost looks brand new. Think I lucked out in that regard. Havnt had much of a chance to go over the markings but its dated 1945.

    Edit: going over it, it appears just to be really oily nothing in the way of "gunk" is that the cosmoline or just a heavy oil job when it was refurbed?
