I find myself going back to look at this one again & again. I am a huge fan of the 91/38 & to find one with the M44 style bayonet on it such as this is astounding. A great find, a great story and if ever a rifle was worthy of being on the Mosin Nagant Showcase this one is without a doubt.

:pointright: 1899 Izhevsk M1891/38 is now on the Showcase!! dance5

Wow! I didn't click to read this thread for a bit thinking this was going to be a more typical M91/38.....boy was I wrong! This is the first one I have seen with the bayonet still intact. Congrats on this carbine for sure!

One thing I have found with these rifles is that there is nothing typical about them. Each one seems to have a story or a uniqueness about it that differentiates it from others.
