Rare Mosin Porn.....1947 Izhevsk 91/30

[Miller Tyme]

I picked this one up a while back at what I can only consider a bargin since it wasn't any more than what a nice Finn captured 91/30 would go for. What drew my attention was that it has a barrel date of 1947, and that it isn't an ex-sniper. All Russian records indicate that only PU snipers where produced in 1947 so one can only assume that this rifle didn't make the grade. It is your typical Soviet mix-master refurb other than that with both stamped and EP'ed parts, a scrubbed tang, and a pristine bore.

That's a rare one indeed! And ones like that are why I look at every refurb I see.

Same here John, I have found some very hard to find MN's in crates of refurbs.
