Re: Mosin ukraine refurbished sniper
It sounds like it might be a Century put together. IIRC the Russians started making PU snipers in 1942. The flash suppressor is likely an aftermarket add on.

Re: Special markings on the gun. (Not russian). Whad do they mean?
They look like modern proof or import marks. Perhaps German.

Re: Receiver markings identification
According to Matt DiRisio's excellent book, "Finnish Mosin-Nagant", M24s were put together between 1925-1928.
Without a clear tang stamped date, it would be hard to say about the receiver.

Re: Help Identifying possible M91/30
This is a refurb. These are force matched serial numbers. In the first photo you can see where the original was ground off. There are remnants of the original number still visible. The circled mark in the third photo is a refurbisment mark. Scroll down at this link. It will show various refurb marks...

Re: Help Identifying possible M91/30
It's a refurbished 91/30 in a late/post war laminated stock. They were renumbered to match the barrel shank. You might find Izhevsk or Tula parts marked with the same number .

Re: Finnish Army close combat practice/training M91 Dragoon
Yes, it is a pretty uncommon conversion i think. And yes, the rubber bayonet was used to practice close combat / bayonet fighting training. It has been used apparently also on M39s, as I found in some books and pictures. I was very surprised to know that also M28 rifles were modified for this usage...

Vintage, or style? Vintage Idk, but style, look into the cowboy action shooting gear.

Re: Help needed
This looks like what used to be called a Balkan rifle. I think you are right that it was an Austrian capture.

Re: northeast quake
We have had a few over the years, but they were all mild. In fact I only ever felt 1 of them.

Re: Interest in new production Mosin receivers?
Mosins are cool and historical, but I would have zero interest in a new one.
