The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

That is odd that the repair is right there, it might be AVT furniture. Does the stock seem beefy? I know the AVT stocks were "beefier" than the SVT's.

Looks like a good looking rifle, sounds like you got a good deal for what they are selling for now a days. Welcome to the forum! I'm pretty new here as well.

Glad to be here!

bunkysdad wrote:That's another nice addition. I know you stated in another post that you have other milsurps. We have a section to post them too. We even have a few of us that like to reload ammo and shoot black powder arms.

Thank you, I'll have to head over there and post some pictures.

Thanks, yea I've been looking for one but when I saw that price I snagged it up.

Well I wasn't really planning on buying another one so soon (I found an M91 the other day and snatched it up, here's the link to that....http://russian-mosin-nagant-forum.com/viewtopic.php?p=376750#p376750). Anyway i was browsing a local gun shop and saw this nice M44 so I started looking at it and ...

Definitely some type of duracoat, you can see it's wearing off on the real of the receiver, I'd definitely pass, you can find one for around $300 maybe a little less with the original finish. Good luck!

Wow great looking rifle man, I'd say that's a pretty good price you paid.

Thank you sir, I am enjoying having them.

Nice collection so far, welcome to the board. Remember that the Finn's adjusted the actions to maximize accuracy, they did this by placing thin metal shims between the action and the stock held in place by the action screws. These shims will not be on every rifle, but if they are be careful to keep...

Nice M91, :thumbsup: Do you have any other Moisns? Welcome to the RMNF. :thumbsup: Thanks! Yes I do, I have an M39, receiver dated 1900 with a Sako barrel dated 1941. (pictures to follow) I am looking to add an M38 or M44 soon, I used to have a M91/30 Tula 1939 but gave it to my brother. I also hav...

Yes she does! When I first saw it, that is the first thing I noticed were all of the numbers.

Nice rifle Robert, it was a Civil Guard rifle at some point latter transferred to the Finnish Army. Being it's a 1915 it may not be a Finn Capture, rather one of the tens of thousands of Mosins that where in Finland when then broke away form Russia after the 1917 Revolution. Additionally Finland bo...

Looks good, it seems to be an original M91 Russian stock. Looking at the different numbers it seems to have been passed around a couple different civil Guard Units. Yea I was wondering what all of those numbers were, ive been doing a lot of research trying to figure everything out. Thanks for the r...

Hello everyone! I am new to the forum and looking forward to interacting with all of you! I've got a few new Mosins that I will be posting soon.

Hello everyone, I am brand new to this forum. I've been collecting rifles for a few years now and just picked up an M1891 the other day. Don't worry I will attach pictures! Anyway It's an Izhevsk with the barrel and receiver tang dated 1915. From what I can tell it has not been re barreled. It also ...
