1916

Izhevsk

Russian M91

February 25, 2023

A Mosin M91 manufactured by Izhevsk in 1916. Bears a unique “circle B” symbol on the right side of the barrel. Additionally, the Russian Eagle has been filed off the barrel, leading me to believe the gun may have once been in the hands of a Bolshevik during the Russian Civil War.

That’s a nice one! M91s that came out of the Balkans also tend to have th eagles ground off or otherwise defaced, which is where most M91s in the US that aren’t from Finland came from.
