Mosin marking

[Rhythm of Life]

Just wondering if anyone is familiar:





Picked this up today.

I already tried 7.62x54r.net but I couldn't see anything even under the unknown that looked familiar.

Let's have a picture of the entire receiver.
What is it Russian,91/30?
Is that a [YU] marked on it?
It's hard to see with the oil, rust, and flash mixed pic. -g

Look like normal firing proofs to me.

Perhaps you can be more specific. Is it a 91/30 or a 91/59 or an m38? Is it from Russia or______? But, I also believe it is a proof marking.

Its a Russian 91/30.

Here's a top view of the receiver, super common year and arsenal.



And here is a better picture of the mark:





Kinda look like a "UU" stamped over by a "5" to me but I'm clueless to the meaning.

I've seen circle "Y' and circle "n" prrof markings, but not in the same circle.
I looking at the last picture sideways and it looks to me like a "5" in a circle. I know certain eastern block countries used it. Let me look. -g

Just a partial strike of one of the many varied Soviet inspector proofs.

Sounds good enough for me.

Already tried 7.62x54r, there is no "UU" or "YU" mark under unknown or known marks from any country.

Yeah for what ever reason those busy Soviet inspectors sometimes went all nuts with their stamps on guns. So every Tomski, Dickski and Harryski put their stamps on everything just to justify their jobs.

Check out these closeup's on some Soviet weapons and their mega proof marks.
