Finnish Mosin Nagant.

This is one of the nicest examples of a Finnish Mosin Nagant I've seen in a while..built on an Izhevsk receiver dated 1900. Very solid feeling rifle.

Ahh! An M91 with a Belgian barrel! Very nice!

Thanks! It's probably the nicest M91's I've owned. Also built on the earliest dated receiver I've ever owned. Also managed to find a leather SA marked sling today. Just need a cleaning rod now.

love the sling mounts

My first Milsurp purchase was a 1891 Finn.1940 Tikka. Have only encountered one 91/30 it followed me home as well. M39 is next if I can find one. Have you slugged the barrel to determine the diameter?

Not yet. Going to do that this weekend before taking it to the range. That's a very nice looking rifle you have!

I did not know wat a Mosin Nagant was when I bought it,let alone a Finnish Mosin Nagant. Purchased it from a co worker and began researching the markings on the internet. I have always owned firearms but now I can combine my intrest in firearms and history. I soon fount this site and the helpful folks here and was addicted.

Yep, I know what you mean. Along with being a firearm enthusiast, Im also a history junkie. Particularly military history. What two better things to go together?

Now if I can convince DishNetwork to offer the Military channel without having to purchase every other %(*&%$## channel I can sit at my workbench and enjoy my Milsurps while watching documentaries my life will be complete.

Nice Fin!
