Finn 91/30 pot belly observation

[sdh1911]

Thanks for the info! Did they mark their other captures with different markings and did the Russians mark their re-captures? I hate to keep asking stupid questions, but it's great to be able to finally get answers from true collectors. Down in these parts, very few collect milsurp. I can answer questions pretaining to 20th century American arms, but, so can about ten guy's in my home town. Thats all they seem to be interested in, it's also why they are broke most of the time. They've spent all their income on nicely redone almost original items-SDH

Aside from Puostuslaitos and SA markings, I think that's about it for the Finns. The Russians, as far as I'm aware, only marked rifles with a crudely struck "X" which signifies crossed rifles. I think only captured rifles that have been Russian refurbished got it though.
