Just one of the M38's

Post by Junk Yard Dog »

I always liked the Mosin M38 carbine, probably why I seem to have so many of them. This one has been around before, but here it is again with new pics. 1945 Izhevsk M38, not an easy date to find. Typical red stock Ukrainian refurb with laminated stock and nicely stamped force matched numbers. The shellac is in very good condition, the bore is spotless and not counterbored and it is a good shooter. I don't know why I didn't put this one away, somehow it got forgotten behind the M39's .

Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

Like the '47 M44 it will come, how long you will wait is the question, I waited over 20 years for the GEW98 I was looking for.
