Very niiice! A Molot sniper without any import marks?
1943 Izhevsk with a fairly rare 1943 produced Kazan factory SVT type scope, can't tell if the mount is Izhevsk or not without seeing the inside or better pic.s.
Bore is beautiful. There is some pitting on the outside of the barrel, and it was shaved down a slight slight bit with a lathe. Other than that, its all beautiful.

Jamjor, were you able to ask the seller about 1942 dated PU rifles?
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.

Well too bad about the "42"s but without those big import marks, you have a big extra plus.
I am really curious, do they have any importer marks at all or added (IO) serial numbers.?
