1937 91/30 markings

Post by NLMosin »

Picked up this one at an auction. I know they are probably just arsenal markings but I was wondering if anyone has any input on the backward LB in the circle and the K in a box overstamped on the Izhevsk crest. I looked through all the research sites I know of an didnt see any pics of either mark. This is a 1937 91/30 with screwed in sling slots, sanded stock with mopped on finish, no pins in rear stock, and NO import mark. Thanks for looking.

I don't remember seeing it before. But try ГВ. Russian letters.

There was a 1937 SCW on the other Mosin forum with the same markings posted in 2012?
