Description:
Russian TULA ARSENAL Proofed Mosin-Nagant Model 38 C&R Bolt Action CARBINE
BEAUTIFULLY ENGRAVED 1946 Dated Carbine
Here we present a C&R Russian Mosin-Nagant Model 38 Bolt Action Carbine made in 1946 at the Tula Arsenal. At the beginning of the war, the Mosin–Nagant 91/30 was the standard issue weapon of Soviet troops and millions of the rifles were produced and used in World War II by the largest mobilized army in history. The Soviet Model 1891 known in the West as the Mosin–Nagant and in Russia as Mosin's rifle is a five-shot, bolt action, internal magazine fed military rifle developed from 1882 to 1891 and used by the armed forces of the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union and various other nations. It is one of the most mass-produced military bolt-action rifles in history with over 37 million units having been made since its inception in 1891, and, in spite of its age, it has been used in various conflicts around the world up to the present day.
In 1938, a carbine version of the Mosin–Nagant, the Model 38, was issued. The carbine used the same cartridge and action as other Mosins, but the barrel was 8.5 inches to bring the weapon down to an overall length of 40 inches, with the forearm shortened in proportion. The idea was to issue the Model 38 to troops such as combat engineers, signal corps, and artillerymen who could conceivably need to defend themselves from sudden enemy advances, but whose primary duties lay behind the front lines. Significantly, the front sight of the Model 38 was positioned in such a way that the Model 91/30's cruciform bayonet could not be mounted to the muzzle even if a soldier obtained one.
This example is dated “1946” and has been beautifully engraved and made into a sporting rifle. It is great condition with a silver deer bust inlaid on the chamber.
The overall condition is fine. Excellent action. Bright, nicely rifled bore with lightly pitting at the muzzle end. The stock is in fine shape with light handling/storage wear and sharp checkering. Deep, finely detailed floral engravings.
