All this info is new to me, though, as Mausers are a bit outside my usual sphere of collecting.
It's a whole other world from other types, but then, aren't they all?

One thing that I consider more rewarding about them is that more is known about the many markings than on many of the Mosins. You often have to dig, but there's good odds of finding an answer to what most of them are. Of course, here I am specializing in Yugos when most of the Post War inspection stamps specifics are unknown. Still, we keep looking. Very often, the truth is out there. We pegged TRZ.5 at Hadzici didn't we?!
