Found this one in a local pawn shop, just got it out of layaway. $325 otd.
1907 Imperial Tula
The little star below the date on the shank is actually a czech star. True carbine rear sight, circle T on the receiver is also czech. For an old M91 the bore is in real good shape, even with a little shine. Not sure what the Czech's used for a finnish, but it sure looks nice, I don't believe this one was issued after the Czech's re-worked to the M91/38 configuration.

Yep, 91/38. I go years without seeing even one & now their all over the place. But I never get tired of seeing them... Another fine looking example.

Yep Rongo, this is the first one I've ever seen in the wild. They say their kinda rare, but this is the fourth one that's been posted up here in the last six weeks.

I just noticed you didn't include a picture of the wide based front carbine sight

Your correct ZKend, but it does have the wide front sight base. I'll post up a couple more pics of that and where the bayonet lug once was.

Here ya go ZKend, and don't call me shifty

All the M91/38's should have the wide front site base, and the little purple sideways figure eight where the bayonet lug was ground off.

These were re-configured by the Czechs, probably in the fifty's or sixty's, guessing that's why they still look fresh.
The hand guard end caps are steel.
