The Russian Mosin Nagant Forum

They did some very nice work on these timepieces, attention paid to even the parts not often seen. A mechanical watch of this quality today would be what? Ten grand?

If it's like mine then it will be a treat to shoot on the range, tight groups.

I imagine that more than one Soviet conscript did the same thing if they were lucky enough to be issued a weapon during the war.

Many of these M39's passed through the hands of the Burn's family in NY some 20 years back. I remember hearing storys about how they were pulling actions out of stocks looking at the tang dates on the receiver hoping for pre 1899 dates that they would then sell for more money as no FFL was needed to...
