last, but not least!

Not as good looking as the other two, but not terrible. :bwink:

That '27 is awesome. the '28 is solid, and the '34 is quite fetching. Great collection!
My M27 collection is lacking (I'm more of a Civil Guard collector). I have a '28 and '34, which I believe to be the most common.

Thanks for the pictures!

Great Mosins Dolk.

I'm not surprised that you have #3 with the tiger stripes. Very nice.

Here is another 27 M27

Nice! Love both of the 1927's (well what I can see of Neal's anyway) and the tiger striped stock on the 1934 is beautiful.

That stock on the last one is really cool. Hard to believe it was a military weapon. I wonder what the soldier who it was issued to thought of it.

I think the middle one (1928) has a cut down M91 stock. It has that weird color putty in a few spots to cover old holes and dings. You see it on Finn stocks sometime. Buy some strange reason, it is my most accurate M27 for me anyway. We get along really well at the range.

The first one (1927) I just had to buy when it went up for sale. They are getting a little harder to find in 1927. Funny thing is Neals is in the 800 range and I was always told they only made 799 barrels the first year. Need to go re-read that on that "other site".

The third one was so butt ugly, I had to give the poor thing a home. I usually keep in in a "gun sock" when I go to the range so it feels less "self conscious". :bwink:

Wow. Those are some Sexy Finnish ladies. Treat them well, or one of the guys here might try to take them away from you, thinking they would make a better "lover" but, I bet they would have one heck of a time trying :)

All three are incredible though the wood on the 1934 is absolutely amazing :Drool1: :thumbsup:

Each one is at a different stage as far as condition and features go. That is why I love my M27's.

Believe it or not, all of them hold my fascination with the M27 equally.
