Nice rifle.Real nice rifle!! Is that an Izhevsk triangle on the cocking knob :wink: ? But I sure don't see any grinding on it. The C H stamp is funny though, and that may be why it sat on a shelf. If you look at my ATI 44
44 Recvr.JPG
Tula post it has the exact same stamp with the exact little stamp between the C*H and it looks nothing like any of my 3 43 Tula PU

. I think it was CN the N looks like a H. This makes me want to know more about that stamp. Mine has been called a fake because of that funny stamp on other forums.
Anyone know about that English CH stamp?

I will tell you all this: This discussion has been very interesting, and it has solidified my vow to not buy a 91/30 sniper.

That said, that is a beautiful rifle, If it was humped, at least it was well humped; and I still believe Martin's soul is spoken for. :devil2:

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Martin, I know nothing about your personal life, but as a lover of these old rifles, I have seen enough to know that you are indeed, rich in these artifacts.
As with most riches, I am sure that the collection has come about by hard work, study and dedication. I am glad someone is doing it. :thumbsup:

Well, Jim, you might just have me there. I just opened the new Shotgun News, and Mitchell's Mausers has the all original snipers for $699.00. Now that I can buy with confidence, one may just happen. By the way, you did see the current SGN in the bottom of the box didn't you?
