Finnish Capture Mosin Sniper

[MJ1]

Well done.

Got this one from a guy from Finland who did a lot of importing, it's came as you seeit less the scope and had the base and original bolt.

A few months ago, I purchased a mirror image of that gun, CH marked, double SA and a "C" on the receiver, D on the barrel 41 on the side and purely Tula from top to bottom, I got it right from a local importer, although it lacks the import stamp. The barrel was drilled and tapped for the PE, I looked at it under the stereo scope and the bluing was in the hole (I got $25 off for the holes, new guy at the counter). I filled the holes with an accumount repro PE, until I can find the real deal. I'll be using it as a shooter, because I JUST DON'T KNOW THE HISTORY. Looks very very cool-SDH

Attached you'll see the Finn PE, forth from the top. There is a refurbed SVT 40, MO/PU, SA Dragoon, Dragoon and a few others in the mix-SDH

Take it outside and just shoot the one rifle I can't see anything in a family shot. Thanks

Sorry it took so long to get these pics up, my son is going into the service on the 29th and we're going to have a little party for him on Sunday and its taking a little more prep work than planned. A good possibility of over a hundred folk, Lord give me strength!

As you see the mount and glass are fill in's. I'm looking for the right stuff now, but, this may take awhile. There is a double SA proof, a 1938 Tula production gun thats been correctly Finned, there are a few stock markings that I've never seen before one being a set of concentric circles and the other what looks like an S in an oval with something else I can't quite make out even under 25X. There is a small "C" under the mount and the mount is "Not" pinned on. No import marks, Dragoon bands? The rifling in the barrel is mint and no counterbore. I am going to shoot it to sight it in then leave it be until I get the right glass, Cheers-SDH

I know a guy who just bought an original scope and bracket for $1300 so it won't be cheap. When you get there I would be interested in your old scope and bracket or even just the scope. The center rifle is an original Yugo I would put it on.

I'll keep that in mind my friend, it would be a great marriage! If you'd like a new knock off, accumount carries many different configurations. The screws are the wrong style and the bases are pinned, but, otherwise pretty good representative items. I figured I'd be paying pretty large for that scope and mount, but, I think its a good investment, cheers-SDH
