There is something about well worn Mil-Surps that just makes you wish they could tell there story, and this rifle is no different.
The rifle is a 1916 Remington Instructie M91 and is a typical Romanian mix-master with both pre & post 1928 Izhevsk parts as well as Tula, Remington, & Setroryetsk parts. The rear sight is off a Izhevsk Dragoon and the bore was a total sewer pipe that surprisingly cleaned up quite nicely. The hand guard has the large aluminum rivets and a sizeable chunk gouged out of it and the barrel bands are tacked into place.
This will make a very nice addition to my Romanian Mosin collection.
