Scary isn't it. :wink: Now I see what all the fuss is about over the M39's!!!!!!. There could be more.
The M39 is queen of the hop. The queen will need at least 4 or 5 princesses to go to the dance with her.

M27, A pair of Finned 38 Tula's, Finned NEW, Finned five line Tula, and a m28 on the way(I won last night at an auction for 180 + 13% and 25 shipping)
That should fill the queens court for a while!!!

Watch out for the Spaniards. They lurk in the shallows.

Did I forget to mention the Spanish trait Dragoon? :) This mosin thing is getting way out of control. :attn:

Question for the experts. In the first picture of the second set of pictures on the receiver under the crest is a stamp that looks like an infinity mark with open ends. This space is usually reserved for the "пк" proof commission stamp. This is only the second time I have seen (maybe "noticed") this mark. Does anyone know what it means? I've only seen this on Imperial receivers. Perhaps a proof that was pre "пк"?
Not a Mosin expert, but I think that may be a stylized Russian letter "P", for proof, normally they look like an upside-down "U", but the "Peter the Great" marked rifles are a bit more ornate, here is another Peter the Great rifle markings with the "P"(?) stamped more uniformly, auction is closed (I got outbid :vsad: )so hope it is now OK to post pics,

Also note the fancier "N" in the serial #,
