What is your favourite Mosin?

I've posted pics of it before. There are always new people to the site, so I like to put it up once in a while. So far, it is the only one to surface on here from a Canadian owner. There are at least two that I am aware of in the US. One of them recently changed hands.

I must have missed it before. Thanks for reposting.

How about doing a thread about it?
 
Of the 3 I have (91/30, M38, M44) my favorite is...

Whichever is the most recent one I've taken out shooting. They're all just so much fun.

The M38 is the lightest/handiest/best balance of the bunch. The M44 is pretty good too, but with the bayonet gone (M38), it's surprising how much better balance it has.
 
My favorite is my Finnish captured m91 with a 1909 barrel and a 1895 reciever date.

Trigger pull is light and the rifle holds 1 MOA if I do my part.

Oh and then there's the tiger striped stock!!

Anyhow, she's real nice and will stay with me for a lifetime!!
 
I recently acquired a 91/30 Panshin from 1931 with a bladed front sight that doesn't appear to have ever been refurbished. This is my current favourite but generally the Finnish rifles (M24, M91) are my favourite. They're long and accurate.

accurate and cheap to shoot PU

1943 TULA PU, because the shellac has been rubbed off in places so I can shoot it as much as I like and leave my pristine 44 TULA PU in the safe. I like it because it makes very small groups, all day long with surplus Chinese ball ammo:d
 
My Soviet manufactured M1891 Infantry Rifle. Made in 1926 on a 1898 receiver then likely captured by the Finnish in one of the Winter Wars (has some Finnish features like being a mixmaster and having the special rear sight but isn't SA marked and doesn't have there special sling swivels). It just has that been there done that feel to it and it is still very accurate.



 
Anything Finnish made (not just captured and marked "SA") and the unusual - 91/38, 91/59 and the one I have marked Poul...... (can't spell it from memory).
