WORLD WAR II Era SOVIET TULA ARSENAL Mosin-Nagant 7.62mm M1891/30 C&R Rifle
1938 Dated RUSSIAN MILITARY Infantry Rifle
Here we present a C&R Soviet Mosin-Nagant 1891/30 Rifle made in 1938 at the Tula Arsenal with a production run between 1891 and 1973. The Imperial Tula Arms Plant was a Russian weapons manufacturer founded by Tsar Peter I of Russia in 1712 in Tula, Tula Oblast as Tula Arsenal. Throughout its history, it has produced weapons for the Russian state. It was produced for standard issue to all Soviet infantry from 1930 to 1945. Most Dragoon rifles were also converted to the M1891/30 standard.
This rifle is a 1930 variant of the original Model 1891. 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.
This example is dated “1938” and marked with the Soviet hammer and sickle, along with numerous inspection marks. It is chambered in the 7.62x54R cartridge, with a magazine capacity of 5.
