The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

I have another weird thing to ask. Talked to a guy at a show yesterday, he has a mosin that he says was captured by the finns. Says the s/n on the bolt is upside down for that reason, to say that the finns reworked it, and it has a shinny steel cleaning rod.

Was out at a show yesterday. Came across a seller there, that had a mosin who said it was a finnish capture.
Was told the the S/N on the bolt is upside down which was done by the fins. Also has a shiny steel looking cleaning rod and no refurb marks anywhere. It is mismatched. Should i consider buying.
