It is a 1930 Hex 91/30. I would like to know what Arsenal this came out of, I Hahe 9 Mosin's and am finally getting around to cataloging them.
Picture is the best I can do with what camera I have.
Thanks
Love my Mosin's !!!!

More photos please. Looks like a nice one. What I can see of the wood makes me more curious.

Yes... That stock looks very wide to me. 1930? Wonder if it is an ex Dragoon? Yes, need more pictures of this rifle.
On a side note, you need to go over to Amazon and pick up "The Mosin-Nagant Rifle" by Terence W. Lapin, 6th edition (the yellow book). This will give you a lot of information on the Mosin 3-line rifle, it's origins, it's use and manufacture in other countries and all of it's markings. Under $20.

Highly recommended X's 2.
As well as, Official Soviet Mosin-Nagant Rifle Manual: Operating Instructions for the Model 1891/30 Rifle and Model 1938 and Model 1944 Carbines Originally Issued. To cover some of the more technical issues.

Also from Amazon.

there are several threads talking about refinished stocks, notice the escutcheons on the above picture are shellacked, which to me say arsenal refurb.Plus nice arsenal repair.
