No import mark as in Canada it is not required or done to our firearms.

Take the rifle out of the stock and look under the tang. You can tell what the rifle started out and what year it was made if the mark is still there.

Holding off stripping this one down as it is so nice I don't want mare any screws or risk any damage.

A little different markings on the barrel than I've seen on Finn '91s. Could it be a stepped barrel variant?

Posted this rifle on Gunboards and they identified it as a rare P-Series Finnish rifle with a Salerno barrel, here is the post - Very nice Finnish Mosin Nagant found at gun show this last weekend, what is it?
