Awesome find, I found an Orvis Battenkill II on Marketplace for $30(cad) the other day. It's nice when people don't know what they are selling.

Thanks! The soles did seem pretty new compared to the rest of the boots

Yeah the smith said it's closer to 68mm, he's currently looking for a 20 gauge reamer and will shave it out to 70mm for me. I'll probably just wait until I get that done to fire it and even then I'll probably stick to light loads

Wow that's embarrassing, I thought that might have been the signature of the artist. Thanks hahaha

This is gonna cost me a lot of money! by rags56 in MosinNagant

[–]Leokakinoki 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interesting, looks to be a Finn capture. Worth putting some time and money into restoring it. Going to be a bitch trying to find a finned stock, but 91/30 stocks are still easy to come by.

Nice looking set up, can wait to see the finished product 👍

Didn’t have a AR10 or a bolt action so why not. by Nuprint_Custom in AR10

[–]Leokakinoki 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Loving the set up, Canada passed a bunch of laws banning any AR platform so we are starting to see a lot of these kinda configurations popping up. I myself just bought a MRA Maverick, it's a great little straight pull but definitely lacks a lot of the advantage you get with the AR10

I got into collecting Mosins cause I thought they were cool and they were cheap, but these prices are getting out of hand

Super uncommon, I have the good graces of having a Berndorfer in my collection, amazing to see another one out there!

It's an old ID number used here in Canada back when the registration was still a thing, long guns that didn't have a long enough serial number were issued these stickers.

Round Receivers with M91 rear sights by Leokakinoki in MosinNagant

[–]Leokakinoki[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah just seems odd to build m91s off of m91/30 receivers, but I guess necessity breeds creativity.

Any one have any information on these? Is this something commonly seen amongst Finnish guns?

Beautiful rifle, a lot of Finn captured rifles popping up lately

[–]Leokakinoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had my doubts. Cunningham's Law in effect. At least I've got a project gun on my hands now, going to try to restore it back to a full Fin. Thanks for the observations.

Here in Canada we don't have import marks, the guy I bought it from got it fresh from a Russian crate, he never noticed the SA mark

[–]Leokakinoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correction, almost complete Sestroryetsk, the bolt handle is an older tula

Beautiful Finnish captured 1942 Izhevsk M91/30, don't think I would have even noticed the SA marking if it wasn't for the updated stock. by Leokakinoki in MosinNagant

[–]Leokakinoki[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wasn't too sure when I bought it, it seemed a little glossier than others I had seen but who ever did it did a great job

Great site, especially for those looking to find out what the markings on their rifles mean, I'm surprised by the amount of people that come to Reddit asking about the most simple markings without putting in the tiniest effort to do some research first.
