Welcome to the forum, it's easy to link to the forum reply box from photobucket, or you will have to resize the pics to 40x480 to post them directly on the forum from your computer.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Re: 91/30 sniper
There is a serial number in the left side of the receiver , and then another one above that, that number is also on the scope just below the marking, on the mount is a three digit number which is also on the bolt and the butt plate. What is this representing?
Re: 91/30 sniper

There are some knowledgeable people here who know the PU snipers better that I, once they see the pics they will be able to give you a better idea.

Re: 91/30
Take pictures of the entire gun. Then move to any other areas that you want to show. Are you using a cell phone? Can you improve the lighting? Good focus in good light, and did I understand this is a sniper? Get pictures of area square inch of everything. You cannot take too many pictures.

What is the import mark?
“Freedom is the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” George Orwell, English novelist, essayist, and critic, 1903-1950
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Re: 91/30 more pics
? i know it 's a stupid question, but what and where do i find that
Re: 91/30 more pics
It should be on the receiver somewhere. It will tell what company it came from.

Re: 91/30 more pics

Re: 91/30 more pics
You have some really nice barrel shots, but the receiver is the part with the bolt in it.

Re: 91/30 more pics
ok, so your saying if i take the bolt out... there will be some markings in the reciever that will tell where it came from? the markings on the barrel is that telling you anything?
Re: 91/30 more pics
The import mark should be on the side (outside) or top of the receiver.
