[Tracer51]

Hi All
Just putting out this information to the group..
A very rare T53 Chinese Bullet testing Carbine is going up for auction Nov 18/19 at https://www.amoskeagauction.com in Manchester NH
The Amoskeag auction house has it on its auction #140.
The auction is taking place on Nov 18 & 19, 2023.
The Lot number for this carbine is: 1236
From what I have research, it is a very Rare Chinese Type 53/56 Mosin Nagant Cartridge Test Carbine.
First off only two are known to exist. There are no actual examples of this carbine on display in any collections I have been able to find or locate.
What makes it very unique is that it is chambered in the 7.62 x 39 cartridge,
From what I have read the Chinese made/used this carbine to test the 7.62x39 ammo they manufacture.
Interesting!!!
