Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Re: New Members, Make your first post here!
Welcome to the board, in short, nobody knows what the MO means, but everyone has a theory. The Soviets don't share information on arms production, or markings, The MO is just one of many markings we have no clue about. Moscow department of sanitation truck convoy guards is my theorynissan2013 wrote:what does the MO on my 1938 mosin mean?

Hi there go my first mosin nagant a couple months back, actually first firearm I have ever bought.(don't worry I got it from my friend who has better knowledge about gun/safty and has been teaching me a lot of information, I keep it locked up safe in his gun safe until I move out this spring, early summer, my parents hate guns) btw im 22 male. I could go on with a story but will cut it short. I will get a picture of my 91 up in a hour after I find one, I go out shooting ever weekend love the gun, put a good 20 35 rounds threw every time I go out, will have to order more ammo here soon have 120 or so rounds left.

Thank you I have read a lot of data and they say Ministry of Defense. ?????? but why stamp 46 as the year it went MO? The 1938 "Izhevsk" that I just purchase has matching #s some minor scratches on the stock, good rifling and arsenal marks on stock and receiver. I paid $150 at a local sports store. I am waiting for NoGo and Field guages from Okie. Then off to shoot it. Oh! I used a bore led to align front site.

Hello from VA. I have always loved the Mosin rifle and look forward to getting back into collecting them.

Hello to the Mosin Nagant Forum members.
My name is Joe and I am a mosin nagant addict. I have enjoyed reading the posts as a guest and have learned a lot. the think the most important thing I have learned is to not alter my mosin nagants. The history of these old rifles is something I have much respect for.
My first purchase in the military surplus world was a 1933 Tula 91/30 in a post war stock back in 2009. I now have six mosins, including a 1944 Finn 91/30 with a round receiver, wartime potbelly stock, and a 1929 Izhevsk 91/30 ex-dragoon with a pre-war stock.
I will post some pictures of the collection soon, and am looking forward to being part of this forum.
Thanks to everyone who has posted here for all of the information that I have learned about these cool old rifles.
A special thanks to Dolk and JYD for e-mailing me when I had difficulty logging on for the first time.

Ministry of Defense is just one of the many theory's about the meaning of the MO mark, the Soviets have not confirmed or denied this, they say nothing at all.nissan2013 wrote:Thank you I have read a lot of data and they say Ministry of Defense. ?????? but why stamp 46 as the year it went MO?
