German re-worked M91/30 - "blued bolt" Finnish M91/30

[jjjxlr8]

The subject came up in another thread so I thought I'd post some pictures of a 1941 Izhevsk M91/30 that was likely captured and re-worked by the Nazis and later sold to The Finnish Army. These rifles have some unique characteristics that are attributed to the German depots: blued bolts, re-numbered buttplates, bolts, and magazine floor plates in a font and style that is not consistent with typical Finnish re-worked rifles. The rear sight leaf is also unique in the it's blued, but then the top is polished to be "in the white."
