Description:
Presented for consideration is a Mosin Nagant Type 38 Carbine by the Izhevsk Arsenal. The Mosin Nagant is chambered in 7.62x54R caliber. Even though the M91/30 was shorter than the M1891, cavalry, artillery, signalers, and other support units still required lighter, less bulky weapons. Drawing from the role of the M1907 carbine, the Soviets adopted a new carbine, the M38 which was officially entered into the inventory in 1939. This model differed from the M1907 in that it was not fully-stocked and used the new hooded-post front sight as found on the M1891/30 rifle. The M1938, like its predecessor, did not accept a bayonet and had an improved rear sight graduated in 100s of meters, indicated by the numerals 1 through 10, stamped on the rear sight leaf. The M1938 was produced from 1939 to 1945, it was replaced by the M1944. In essence, the M38 is a bayonet-less carbine version of the M91/30. But there is a notable difference in the mounting of the sights. The M91/30 uses a welded or brazed on dovetail front and rear. The M38 utilizes sight "bands" that are pressed on and pinned into place. This example is in very good overall condition physically and mechanically. This Mosin Type 38 Carbine would make a great addition to a collection of militaria or a strong start to a new collection. Import marks are under the barrel near the muzzle.
