The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

Actually haven't had a chance to shoot the M39 yet, found it at Cabela's of all places in late February before the lockdowns. The Finn capture is a great shooter, it does have a counter bore but still shoots great. I'd like to think this one may have saw action in the winter war.

Hey guys just thought I'd share two of my favorites in my collection. First is a 1938 Tula Finn capture, this may be my favorite just because of the story it tells in all of its scars. This rifle has seen some sh#t, if only it could talk lol. Next is a M39 B barrel built on a Tula 1916 receiver. It ...

Thanks for the info, although it would of been better to learn it was legit im still decently happy with it. Should be fun at the range at least. Although I am fairly knowledgeable in mosin nagant collecting, snipers I knew next to nothing about. I have learned a great deal and hope to find a real o...

Do you think it having the correct prefix is just a coincidence? Some of the things i read said that the snipers have a taller front sight post? It is quite a bit taller then any of my others oddly enough. It is a very nice rifle although I wish bubba hadn't refinished the stock.

Thanks for the responses guys. Do you think this thing is a re sniper or a fake? Did they go to the trouble of changing the front sites on fakes? Correct prefix just a coincidence? Like i said im decently happy with it either way, i think it will make a good shooter. The trigger is phenomenal for a ...

I didnt question the shank, thats pretty common. My question would be the reciever. Its a 43 as smooth as my pre war tulas, the correct prefix, the sniper front sight post. I have 2 other 43 izzys that look like trash compared reciever wise. On the fakes ive seen the recievers look like typical wart...

Also from reading 9130.info they didnt move the sniper marks to the top right area until mid 43. Could mine have been higher on the left and be scrubbed? The remnants of markings on the low left could be a scope number? When i made the trade I knew a little about pu's but I had no idea how big the m...

Thanks for your response, some more questions I would have are these. It has the tall front sight post of a sniper, it has the correct prefix of a sniper, and the reciever is the smoothest 43 Izhevsk i have ever seen. I have 2 other 43 izzys that look like trash compared to it. Someone would of had ...

Screenshot_20200821-182807_Gallery.jpg Again sorry for the duplicate pics, posting on mobile and didnt notice! From all the research ive done it seems to at best be real or at worst a resniper. I traded a psa ar10 for it. I really wish the guy didnt bubba the stock. Bonus pic- my mosin collection s...

Yes.

hello, i posted this on the collector forum and thought this might be a good place. I recently took this rifle in trade. I traded a psa ar10 for it. I have a decent collection of mosins and this was one of many holes in the collection. I've had it around a week and have been doing all the research i...

I recently took this in trade. I've been researching and I think it may be legit, resniper? with replacement scope. Guy I got it from said he bought it at cabelas in 2011 for 600. He refinished the stock.sorry for duplicate pics. Screenshot_20200821-182234_Gallery.jpg Screenshot_20200821-182243_Gall...
