Seldom Seen Example of a Non-Refurb 91/30

[mholmes1]

Recent pick-up. Here is a seldom seen Finn capture 91/30 that did not see a refurb with the exception of the force-matched bolt by the Finns. Condition is salty, as it should be, and the stock still has its original Izhevsk CCCP cartouche. Only examples you'll ever really see that are non-refurbs are Finn captures or Spanish Civil War gun, even then most of those saw refurb.

Very nice! You have one heck of a collection.

Nice find! It's tough to find an interesting Mosin but you have one there. For the curious, here is a chart of the Russian Refurb markings. If your Russian-built gun has one of these, it was refurbished at the arsenal listed:

It probably shoots good.

Has the Finnish SA marking.

I have seen a lot of salty M91's, but very few 91/30's that had not been rebuilt a time or two. Neat rifle!
