I love the Mosin rifles so much, I went on a buying streak a few years ago and bought 15 of them. Each one is unique in it's own right.
Then I bought an 1897 M-91. This one is my favorite because it was marked as an Austrian Hungarian piece and later taken in by the Finnish. It still has the old Cyrillic Russian Tula markings and never was rebarreled or restocked by the Finnish. Probably fought in 4 major wars and made it's way back to Merica without any import marks.
If that rifle could talk.
