i just got into the milsurp game and am kinda at a loss with this one... i just got one of these mossin nagants from a fellow nutter. it's in great shape. but the history on it is foggy! this is all i can find... any other info would be great.
thanks
Model 1891/59 Carbine — existing M1891/30 rifles that were cut down to carbine length. Little is known about them. Some collectors are generally suspicious of this so called "91/59", and feel it may have been produced for commercial sale by arms importers in the United States and Canada. There is growing evidence that the 91/59 carbine was made in the Soviet Union for reserve military forces and for militia forces during the 1950s.
