WWII Russian Sniper repro

The Big Brown Truck brought this today. I've been thinking of buying one and finally decided to do it since the supply seems to be slowing down.

These are built in Ukraine using WWII vintage Mosin Nagant M91/30s. The scopes/mounts are made in the same factory as the originals were made during the war and to the same specifications. The optics are top notch.

I stripped it down and cleaned it after taking it out of the box. I'm really pleased. It is built from a 1937 Izhevsk - the bore and barrel are bright and clean. The stock is a nice pre-war version; perhaps the original stock. The butt plate and floor plate are original matches to the receiver SN. The turned down bolt is a war time replacement numbered to match and the scope is electro-lencil numbered, similar to the originals.

The delivered price from SOG was $413 including shipping and included a cleaning kit, ammo pouch, sling and lens covers for the scope.

 

NICE Mosin! I've been thinking about the same thing but a Springfield.
