Nice scores BR!

But when it comes to cool Mosins, the cool carbine award goes to one I didn't know existed until the day I saw it and bought it immediately, the Yugo reworked M44. Those photos make it look like there are two, but there's only one..

Very nice looking.

I had a Yugo refurb M44 that was in excellent condition. Unfortunately I sold it years ago.

Cool Mosin's!

Empire has always been a good source for some interesting guns. I got my Egyptian FN-49 sniper from him a few years ago.

One of my more uncommon Mosin's would be this Chinese Type 53 carbine. Absolutely new and all stamped matching. It still had the small cloth bag of anti rust medium under the rear sight leaf. Nice original grease through out.

It's also not import marked.

Thanks for sharing. You got some nice ones from Empire Arms. Made me open the safe to look at my paltry collection of Mosins. Very glad I picked up a few fifteen years ago.

Great stuff - nice group and collection. Makes me want to give more look to Mosins. I have all of one, a 91/59, but those really are quite intriguing.

It is hard to find a T53 that isn't thrashed. Even harder to find one that is all matching. I haven't ever seen another T53 that was in the same ballpark as that one. Unbelievable..WOW!

I cosplay so much that my cosplay clothes are now my regular clothes and my regular clothes are now my cosplay clothes.

Here's another uncommon Mosin, at least in this condition A Remington made 91. This one never left the US. 105 years old this year.

I am not into Mosins after sending my Finn M39 down the road, but these rifles in these pics are outstanding and work the effort to get. Mine appeared to be one that put many poor Ruskies deep into the Finn winter snow, very well worn.

Whats really interesting about all of the Finnish Mosin Nagants is the Finn's never made any receivers.

Every single Finnish Mosin was built from a captured Russian rifle.

The Finn's made every other part barrels, stocks, triggers, bolts everything.


But no receivers.

Just think of the numbers of captured rifles needed to arm an entire nation.

I've read that there were about 200,000 M91 Mosin Nagants in Finnish arsenals at the time Finland achieved its independence from Russia. That gave them a jump start on MN receivers

Pretty sweet Remington SVT. I came VERY close to buying a very similar BNIB condition one at the Santa Barbara Gun show about six years ago but we couldn't come together on price. We were about $400 apart and I couldn't bear to pay that much for a Mosin, granted the coolest, most beautiful Mosin I had seen in person at that time.

Have you or will you ever shoot it or is this a safe queen?

It's a queen. I prefer to shoot my Finnish M39's
