About The Mosin Crate - Est 2014
We're a husband and wife team that opened the Crate in early 2014. The name came about because back in the 2010s, thousands of Mosin Nagant rifles were imported out of the former soviet bloc, almost always coming in large green or tan wooden crates of 20 rifles. We'd visit the importers/dealers to sort through these crates to find the special/uncommon variants mixed within for both my customers and myself.
Since then we've gotten a much larger following and volume of milsurp firearms. Anything you can think of, from Lee Enfields to Hi-Powers to Mausers to Colt 601 parts kits from Vietnam. If it's not nailed down, we'll try to get it for the site.
Rewinding a bit.. My first firearm was a Finnish M91 Mosin that I picked up at an antique mall when I was 15.(My family thought it was a prop gun, it wasn't) Since then I have been addicted to milsurp firearms/accessories and fuel that addiction by finding cool stuff you and I both want! (thankfully we have great taste, I know this because you're here!)
We take great pride in being a small mom n pop operation where the voice you hear on the youtube video is the same one you'll speak with(sometimes Mrs. Mosin Crate) on the phone to get your order taken care of. Thanks for being here!
