So today I found two mosins and for the price I couldn't pass it up! First is 1917 Remington m91 Finn captured the stock has been refinished
![Crying or Very Sad :cry:](./images/smilies/icon_cry.gif)
but for a $100 I still thought it was worth it.

Secondly is a 1915 high serial numbered NEW it's missing the top hand guard but again for $100 another one I couldn't pass up it has some neat placements of the SA markings!

I have one question on the NEW what does the oval with LT with two 1's under that mean it's in the picture of the barrel shank?

Good price on both, I can't make out the mark , but I don't recall if we know what it means, most markings on these are unknown. Triple SA marked, nice, Bubba finish or not, any M91 for $100 is a steal, if it's FInn marked that goes double.

I believe that mark is a German capture mark. Great prices even with the stock issues.

http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/MosinMarks03.htm See row 16, column A - does that mean German airforce...? Real interesting mark on a steal of a deal. Congrats!
