Description:
Please note that this post is for the Finnish M28/76 marked "A" in the photos.
The photos for this post is for a pair of consecutive serial number M28/76s, both of which are available. "B" is available in another post.
The number is XXX57(“A” in photos). The rifle barrel shank is dated 1969 and is considered "No Maker" as we do not have a manufacturer's insignia on the barrel channel.
According to Matt DiRisio, in Finnish Mosin-Nagant, M28/76 production commenced in the mid 1970s to function as sniper trainers, sniper rifles, or marksmanship training for the Finnish Defense Forces and Finnish Border Guard until the late 1990s. Only about 1000 M28/76 rifles were imported into the USA.
The M28/76 trigger has a 2 stage M27 target type. Sights are a double-aperture arrangement, with a tiny peep on the rear and an aperture in the front. The rifle will come with full rear peep standard rear M39 style and forward adjustable globe sights. Import marks are found on bottom of barrel in front of forearms of stock.
The XX457 has matching numbers on its receiver and barrel. It has a circle style front sight insert. It has a "S" gear wheel proof on barrel at front of front sight. The CMP throat muzzle wear gauge (.308) measures -.75, which is below zero.
The CMP muzzle gauge is designed for a .308 muzzle diameter (typically used on Garands and 1903s). We have chosen to use this tool to give a reference as to muzzle wear and noted that many 28/76s have been found to have .308 bore diameters. A definite advantage for reloader and bullet selection. *We are not making the claim that this rifle is chambered in .308, we're specifically talking about bore diameter.
The rifle is right-handed. It has a "S" gear wheel located on the rear sight. The rifle features a heavy target stock with bottom/side rails for sling and accessory attachments. The stock features very full palm swells and an elevated comb. The "A" rifle, XXX57, has an arsenal stock repair plug on left side of grip and a few on right side tip of fore end.
