Wouldn't the barrel twist ratio make targeting ineffective after cutting it down? Unless fitted with a different barrel with a faster twist? I'm no gunsmith but it would worry me. Do any of you guys out there have any thoughts on that?

Have to wonder if this was that Ohio bully cops worst nightmare. Remember, the one who threatened to shoot a cc in the head, later let go on a medical for PTSD?
Bet this cop had the shakes afterward. Good shooting, though.

While it isn't funny (officer or anyone being shot at), I have to admit the stOOpidity of the worm-food was. Basically a TC Contender with a 5rd mag. No disrespect to TC, of course.

Chopped back that far, I'd be surprised if the bullet made more than 1500fps.

For mutilating that rifle, he deserved what he got...not to mention an unwarranted attack on one of the good guys.

Looks like something ripped from a Mad Max movie. A harbinger of things to come?

Meh, It was a Mosin. No big loss.
