Picked up 2 Mosins, thought I'd share. Traded a buddy of mine some non-firearms related gear for the all-original rifle. During our trade he asked what my intentions were. I told him I'd like to scope it, but upon seeing it, I didn't want to ruin it. So he offered me another that was already sporterized for the same trade price. I took him up on both trades (that cost me a total of 60 bucks
). He's happy, and so am I. All in all a damn good week.

The top one is a 1939 Izhevsk 91/30, ATI stock, bent bolt kit, drilled-and-tapped scope mount, and Bushnell Stalker 3x9x40 scope.
Import marks appear to say: USSR 7.62x54R R GUNS C'VILLE IL 91/30

The bottom one is a 1942 Izhevsk 91/30, all-original, and in awesome shape.
There do not appear to be any import marks except a dot matrix engraving of the serial number.
