That's really encouraging to hear, can't wait to see it in person.

I'll try to get more pictures of it for you guys. Would be cool to take it on a wild boar hunt [emoji848]

Thank you sir, I'll go take a look!

Re: Mosin I.D./Valuation

The Dragoon rifle didn't just vanish overnight in 1930 when the new specifications were approved. The changeover to 91/30 was gradual as old style parts still in inventory were used up. I was told that this change would continue into 1934 sometime before all the rifles being produced were using the...

Re: Mosin I.D./Valuation

91/30, but with blade front sight as would be seen on a dragoon rifle. Could be Finn modified, or just a 91/30 that hadn't had the front sight upgraded yet. Not one of the more common Soviet refurbished rifles, looks more Balkan used, or maybe Finn, Spanish Civil War used is a possibility also. It ...

Mosin I.D./Valuation

Good day, all I have an opportunity to pick up this Mosin, however I don't know what it's worth or what type of mosin it is. My guess is an M91/30, it's from 1931 and has a hex receiver. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20231212/3b3e8137aa5f2b1ffbec...

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!

Hi all,

Joining to learn more about Mosins, as I love historical weaponry and am looking to expand out of just modern arms.

Found a Mosin someone is trying to part ways with, but I'd like to do some digging and see what it's worth.

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!

Hi all, Joining to learn more about Mosins, as I love historical weaponry and am looking to expand out of just modern arms. I'm looking to acquire this one. Don't believe it's special, but open to thoughts from others. I'm thinking it's just a standard 91/30, but not 100% https://uploads.tapatalk-cd...
