Very nice. I have a Russian 1943. It's got everything I wanted. It has the rough machining on the exterior, it has the "walking stick crack" and some character in the stock. It was arsenal refinished but has, according to my Russian friend, someone's initials hand carved into the stock. Unfortunately, they tried to sand it out during the refinishing but it's still visible. Mine isn't a rare example but it's enough to get me more interested in Mosins & I love the initials. Some young Russian man carried that gun in WWII. He used it as a walking stick, he carved, I presume, his girlfriend's initials into it and worried about coming home alive. That makes it a little personal & I like that.

I see this post is over 3 years old but good on ya m8. This is my kinda stuff.

My father and I use the Mosin Nagant M44 for deer hunting. Finding the shells for them isn’t as easy as it was 20+ years ago, but it’s our weapon of choice. We bought the original sling, scope, takedown tools, ammo pouch, and oil can for ‘em. Dad has the 200 meter sniper rifle. He refinished his an it’s absolutely gorgeous. Great hunting rifle.

First rifle I ever bought myself was a mosin from the used rack at gander mtn for $150. Once I got into collecting more I looked up the markings. It's a Finnish 91/30 B barrel

Personally, I believe you should collect what ever brings you the most joy. Just to look at and hold.

Got my first M44 Mosin in the late 80's and came with a spam can of ammo, all for the price of 50 bucks.

It is in great condition but i dont know much about its numbering which is why i am watching alot of videos on mosins to kind of figure out mine.

Just picked up a 91/59 from and older collector who bought it 35-40 years ago when they started importing them into the country. He bought a few crates of them and hand picked a few for himself.

Eric, I'd really enjoy if you made another video similar to this one regarding military surplus rifles. I love learning from you

Hey man thanks for the great videos! Very informative I've learned a lot from your stuff I did not know!! Keep up the great work.

Excellent detail, I learned a lot. This video has inspired me to be more vigilant in my search at gun shows. I think a deal can ve had by knowing more about the rifle than the seller. Video was not too long not, or in any way boring. Thanks Iraqveteran8888!

loved this vid, you taught me about the Finn mosins a couple years ago with your M39 vid and now I've got two Finn's; an M91 VKT and an M39 Sako. The M91 is really cool because aside from Chatellerault, some piece is made by every Mosin manufacturer. Most is Westinghouse and Remington, but just a cool microcosm of the Mosin world and crazy to think of all of those pivitol moments in several country histories that it was a part of. Thanks for putting this info out there!!

LOVED the video and the format. Would love to see more done like this on different segments of your surplus collection to expand my knowledge and appreciation. Yes Yes Yes... more.

Great video Eric! Keep them coming, I think it would be great to see a video on Spanish Mausers. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Great informational video. My regular shooter mosin is a 1927 ex draggon 91/30. Somewhat rare but not extremely. My other mosin is among the rarest: a Finnish m91. My m91 has a 1918 Tula mark on the tang. It has a 1942 marked barrel with the VKT and SA stamps. BUT, it also has the B marked Belgian barrel, AND the Belgian liege proof marks. One of less than 1,200 made. I've only sent 5 rounds down that to test it. Whole thing is like brand new.

I'd love to see a video on your favorite or rarest milsurps. I personally really like the longer videos so this one was a treat! Merry Christmas to you guys and God bless.

There's another carbine you didn't mention. In 1907, the Russian army made a carbine for cavalry and artillery troops, designated the M1907. They didn't make very many of them, and even fewer survive today, but they are out there. Just thought I'd point it out Edit: I accidentally called it the M1917 at first. I have corrected the comment.

Well done video!

I have an M59 too, and when I bought them, they were thought of as junk Mosins. An M38 would be much preferable. The reason is, M59 is a Russian original, factory bubba gun. They cut down war surplus guns with intention of distributing it across hunting cooperatives (in Soviet Russia, commercial hunting for fur and meat was performed by freelancers too, but co-ops held the reins). By bubbaing them, Russians removed all collectability of the wartime Mosins when they made M59s.

Absolutely one of the best if not the best video I have seen about the Mosin rifles.

He speaks very highly of the M39s and for good reason, after all, it was the final incarnation that became the Finnish standardized rifle for a while. Its predecessors are definitely rarer though. The "aura" of my M28 is just awesome, to think, the M28 was a civil guard only rifle, there are no civilian copies, and shortly after the winter war began... My imagination runs wild when I hold it/shoot it.

I got a wierd one; a 1943 m9159 with the wierdest metal finishing I've seen. Every metal surface above the wood that is visible is machined to a near mirror polish and blued beautifully, but as soon as it goes to metal that's under wood, it is instantly super roughly machined and has a rough, dull finish. When disassembled and seen from the side, there is an obvious parting line where the finish goes from beautiful to ugly. Any Mosies out there maybe know why it might be like that?

Cody Moncrief My '42 91/59 is the same way. My guess is that it was done to speed up production during wartime.

Excellent explanation! Thanks! Favourite rifles of mine. Appreciate the information!!

Cool video! I collect Mosins and they are fun shooters. Found a 91/59 this past weekend. Back to the range I go
