Looks awfully good to me.Jbob wrote:1944 with all matching numbers, referb with counter bore and a M44 stock. Nastiest varnish paint brush job you've ever seen.
I'll try it out in the morning with several others.
And it's Shellac, not varnish on the stock. That's what the Soviets applied to their rifles & is the correct finish for a War-Time M38. Very Nice.

Re: Izhevsk M38 Mosin
The stock looks "refurb normal" to me and is far better than a lot of M91/30s that I have seen.
Nice M38!

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
