Ok, sure I'll play.
Here are a 1923 Izhevsk Hex refurb in a laminated stock, a 1927 Izhevsk Hex refurb in a pre-war stock and a 1937 Izhevsk SCW.

Finn snipers
Finn captured top-mount PE/PEM rifles, and a genuine original WW2 Finn made PU sniper - this is NOT one of the replicas like Century made.
These are all from that well known small hoard of Finn Mosin snipers that was stashed away and forgotten about back in the early 1990's which Andy at Sarco found in the back of their warehouse several years ago.Attached Files- Finn capture 1935 Tula PE #52124 004.jpg (83.0 KB, 16 views)

More Mosin goodness!
WW2 German captured 1943 Izhevsk PU sniper, 1944 Tula PU sniper from that Gunboards Group Buy that Tuco set up back in the late 1990s, original configuration Finn captured 1929 Dragoon rifle.
And a restored "triangle/1" marked 1943 Izhevsk "ex-sniper" with lots of rare and collectable East German goodies including the scope cover, lens caps, sling, East German leather ammo pouch, and DDR marked Polish ammo pouches. The ammo shown is East German "Uebungs patronen" practice ammo with range information for various 7.62X54r weapons.
The "triangle/1" marking was formerly believed to be East German, but some evidence has been presented that it may also be a Soviet refurb marking, as a Soviet artillery or rocket repair depot (I forget which) also used this marking besides the East Germans.Last edited by Marcus; 07-26-2015, 09:26.Comment

Hmm, guess I can play at this.
This photo is of my WW2 vintage ruskies. This is a 20+ yr old photo and I have since added several - an M38 & a couple more SVTs come to mind - but never took a new family photo.
