I'm looking to make a shift in my collection ... Partly as it's getting a little crowded in the storage I currently have available ... And the shift will allow a little more wiggle room and some space for future additions... I feel that I'm culling the herd to to improve the collection.

So I just want to make sure I'm not over looking anything ...

1st rifle on the left... M91 barrel not counter bored

Any info on this one would be helpful...

[Alexjr1967]

Ok here are pictures of the 2 and 3 from the left with 2 being on top...

3)1942 serial pt7134 bolt and receiver match... Mag plate electro penciled matching ... Barrel not counterbored













These 2 pictures are of rifle number 2 it looks like it was drilled and tapped for a scope mount but it was welded back up? And stock repaired

Alex, the rifle on the far left is not a dragoon or ex-dragoon. It's an M-91 Infantry length.

Nice collection!!

I've had it for awhile don't know much about it ... Thanks for the clarification ... That's the reason I came to experts ... Wanna make sure when I go to sell them I represent them correctly ... Still going to have Mosins around ... To much fun not to keep some around ...

The M91 ... I was told it was a Finn ... Past that... I just know that it functions properly

[Emdawg]

M91 is probably a Finn with a Tikka barrel. That should be a T in a triangle or a T in a triangle that is within a circle.


Might be VKT, as well.

Why not list prices?

[surplus-addict]

Why not list prices?

Because:
1. This is C&R General, and not The Collectors Corner, and
2. I don't think he's selling them just yet. He's fishing for info, which is good.

[Alexjr1967]

Why not list prices?

Simple it would be the wrong forum to list prices... Surplus-addict is right I'm fishing for info from those that are more knowledgable than I... While I will eventually list some possibly all of the firearms ... I'm hoping to learn a little more about these before I make my final decision on if I keep or sell ... The three I'm hoping to find out if there's more to them are the m91, the one with out a complete year, & the one that appears to have been drilled and tapped for a mount then sealed back up... Or anything I'm not seeing on the rest of them ... Rare stock or IDK ....

Also who doesn't like a show and tell thread ... Wish I had a good camera ... These are iPhone pictures ... But how many threads get started and someone posts the




Also opinions on the values of the m91, Chinese k98, and m44 would be helpful
All firearms would be sold cash n carry prior to the years end.

M91 looks a little rough to me. It is a Tikka. The year of the reciever should be under the reciever tang.

The M91/30 with the sealed scope mount holes indicates that it was a PU sniper rifle at one time in its service. The Russian reverted many of them back to normal rifles after the war and then refurbed them. They ended up in storage until they were surplused.

Need pictures for the Chinese Mauser. They had a few different types by different manufacturers shipped to them.

I'll agree that the M91 is not beauty pageant material ... But is better off than the Chinese k98 ... I only say it's Chinese because that what the previous owner represented it as ... I took it in on a trade...most all markings on the receiver are scrubbed only the importer markings are visible which indicate K98 8mm ... Ran out of time early to continue to take pictures ... Had to leave for work...

Any thoughts on price range on the m91?
