The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Would like opinions if this is real or not...I know the scope is a reproduction.....

Thanks

Welcome to the forum. You basically answered you own question. If it has a reproduction scope it is not a real as in authentic sniper. Once a part is replaced with a reproduction part that removes it from the historically correct/collectors catagory. Besides they didn't make PU's until 1942 and this rifle is a 1938. http://www.russian-mosin-nagant-forum.c ... index.html

Welcome to the forum, as was stated above, fake, sorry, I hope you didn't pay out real PU sniper price for it.

paid a couple hundred, new prob a fake, but fun to shoot !

Thanks

dont feel bad i paid over 600 for my 1936 fake PU sniper. PW ARMS. at least it is a good fake.

I just called Graf and Sons. They agreed to take it back and credit my account. I explained that this was not even an orig sniper rilfe with repro scope, but someone drilled and tapped the rifle and hacked the wood to fit the scope.
That is what I call customer service !!!

Graf and Sons are excellent people to do business with, I buy a lot of reloading gear and components off of them. I am surprised they would have sold the rifle without listing it as a reproduction.
