Made in Russia at the Izhevsk Mechanical Plant, this Mosin–Nagant 91/30 is a 1943 wartime production rifle with the round receiver pattern associated with later-war manufacturing. It is chambered in 7.62x54R and uses a fixed internal magazine for a 4+1 capacity, with a straight bolt handle and a cocking piece safety.
The rifle retains the correct long 29-inch barrel and iron sight setup: a hooded post front and a tangent/ladder rear sight graduated to 2000 meters. Sight markings and graduations are in Cyrillic and meters, as expected for Soviet service rifles of the period.
Stock furniture is hardwood with sling slots and a finger groove, paired with a top handguard, two barrel bands, and a steel buttplate. The metal surfaces are blued, while the bolt and the magazine floorplate/trigger guard assembly are in the white, matching typical Soviet arsenal finishes from this era.
Arsenal markings include the Izhevsk arrow-in-triangle, a 1943г date stamp, and Cyrillic serials on the barrel shank. Electro-pencil serials on components are consistent with Soviet arsenal practice.
This 91/30 was designed to accept the standard cruciform socket bayonet (not included), maintaining the correct configuration for a WWII frontline infantry rifle from the Soviet Union.
