Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
Welcome to the forum. These Mosin Nagant rifles tend to be addicting. Shooting them is a ton of fun. Finding them these days at a reasonable price is not so easy. Nevertheless, there were a ton of them made and a large number were imported to the US and elsewhere. Enjoy!

Hello everyone, I just stumbled upon this site while doing some research. I'm glad I found it; I have a few Mosins in my collection - definitely my favorite of the old bolts.

I have an M44 serial # TY9145. actually the "T" looks like a backward 7 and the "Y" a bend in the base. Russian apparently. Can anyone tell me where is was made and when?
It is matching #s. Has high walled receiver. I replaced the front sight as it was missing. Single eared lug on bayonet \. Ground bevel inside cylinder, shoulder. Appears to me to be a laminated stock with a laminated splice. Laminated stock with wrist cross bolt. Large barrel band relief cut , laminated stock. Front and rear pressed full escutcheon. I brought this home from Viet Nam. It was captured in a cache. It was packed with cosmoline.
My email is jacoleen@bellsouth.net

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Hello, just checking in for the first time. Hope to learn a lot about a few rifles I’ve picked up that is outside of my knowledge base.
Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
Ein freundliches Hallo... Mir ist gerade aufgefallen, das ich mich noch garnicht richtig vorgestellt habe. Habe mich hier am 1.Mai angemeldet und bin komplett Neueinsteiger... Schießen tue ich erst seit ca. einem Jahr. Gekauft (aber noch nicht in meinem Besitzt) habe ich eine 91/30 Sniper und eine Makarov. Ich bin zufällig auf dieses Forum gestoßen und begeistert von der vielen Information, die ich hier bekommen kann. teilweise habe ich schon ein paar Bilder gepostet. Bessere kommen noch, sobald ich meine Erlaubnis der Behörde bekomme.
Gruß Andreas (wickmac)
A friendly hello... I just noticed that I haven't really introduced myself yet. I signed up here on May 1st and am a complete newcomer... I've only been shooting for about a year. Bought (but not yet in my possession) I bought a 91/30 Sniper and a Makarov. I came across this forum by chance and was thrilled by all the information I can get here. I have already posted a few pictures. Better ones will come as soon as I get my permission from the authorities. Greetings Andreas (wickmac)

Guten Morgen "Mühlenmann"...
Hier ist es so, das man ein Jahr in einem Verein gemeldet sein muß. Ganz wichtig... Mein Vorsitzender des Vereins muß mir eine Unterschrift leisen, in dem er bestätigt, das alles korrekt ist und ich seiner Meinung nach Waffen besitzen darf...(unterschreibt er nicht, bekomme ich auch keine). Durch den Nachweis der regelmäßigen Teilnahme am Training, muß ich erst eine Antrag an den Verband stellen, mit den dazugehörigen Anträgen für die Waffen und Munition, die ich gerne erwerben möchte... (eine Lang- und eine Kurzwaffe ist möglich). Das ich ein polizeiliches Führungszeugnis und eine Unbedenklichkeitsbescheinigung vorlegen muß, brauche ich ja wohl nicht zu sagen...
Danach (wenn alles okay ist) muß ich bei der Polizei (in der Stadt in der ich wohne bzw. gemeldet bin) einen Antrag stellen, wo ich genau angebe, welche Waffen ich erworben und welche Schutzmaßnahmen ich getroffen habe. Erst danach darf ich die Waffen von zu Hause zum Schießstand führen...
So... Viel Information... Kurz gesagt ich weiß es nicht. Es sind zur zeit Sommerferien hier und dann lieget es immer noch daran, wie schnell bzw. vwe viel Arbeit die Leute in den Ämtern haben... Durch Hörensagen von Freunden kann es zwischen vier und acht Wochen dauern...
Gruß wickmac

That is quite different from my state. We fill out a federal form where we swear we are legally able to own a gun, then they call in an instant background check, then we buy it. Can take as little as 15 minutes.

15 Minuten... Sowas gibt es hier in Deutschland nicht. Wir sind die fleischgewordenen Bürokraten. Hahaha
Es wird... In einer Woche schicke ich mein Bedürfnis los zum Verband... Alles ist gut. Da kann man eh nichts machen.

It is different in the different states. Mine, Kentucky, has some of the better more lenient laws.

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
Hello I have just aquired a mosin with a hex reciever and westinghouse barrel. The stock is a finnish stock with the sa stamp on the barrel. I was just curious if it is normal for mosin bolts to not be marked the only part of my bolt that is marked is the handle and cocking piece both of those serial numbers do not match the barrel. The trigger guard doesen't match either but the serial number on it is crossed out. I also found some marks on the wood i am confused about to. I will post pics to show also out of curiosity how do you post pics?

The bolt knob and barrel shank number should match to be considered Finn matched. Your's appears to be. Is the receiver marked?
