I have a Mosin Nagant 91/30 built in 1942 what do the backwards 77 means to the numbers of the rifles. This rifle has all matching numbers except for the bayonet.

Its probably Cyrillic numerals your looking at,and the backward 7 would be a 3.
So 33

Look like this? ГГ? Could be a serial number prefix. Russian letter for G
