Built at Tula in 1936, this pre-war 91/30 features the round receiver configuration and the Tula star-with-arrow crest. Country of origin is the Soviet Union, and importer marks read CAI Georgia, VT with the caliber/import legend "M91/30 RUSSIA 7.62x54R."
The rifle retains its long 29" barrel and is chambered in 7.62x54R. Sighting equipment is military-correct with a hooded post front sight and a tangent rear sight graduated to 2,000 m for elevation.
Hardware and furniture are in the traditional pattern: a full-length hardwood stock with finger groove, inletted sling slots with metal escutcheons, a reinforcing crossbolt, and two spring-retained barrel bands. It is configured with a bayonet lug/interface for the cruciform spike bayonet.
Functionally, it uses a fixed internal 5-round magazine that is stripper-clip loadable. The bolt is bright in-the-white, the receiver and metal components are blued, and the safety is the manual rotating cocking piece. Length of pull measures 13.25".
