Hungarian 91/30

Post by capt14k »

My new Hungarian 91/30 or more correctly Puska 48.M. Marked 1952 all matching and all properly marked with Hungarian 02 stamp. I believe I posted the original one I purchased, but when it arrived the bore was not good and the butt plate was rusted. Seller took it back and provided a full reimbursement. This one has been fully inspected and is good to go.

Very :thumbsup: and :vcool: . Saving that seller to favorites? What has the rear sight been colored with and how does it show up outside?

Really nice looking and I really like the contrast between the metal and the wood on it.

The top edge looks like reddish nail polish or something. Does it work?

It is just a lighting effect. Pictures were taken indoors in a basement. Yes it is fully functional.

Hungarian 91/30's are sufficiently rare here in the US that you should have kept the first one also bore dark or no.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

It was sent back while still overseas. I had a limit of 8 rifles. I thought about bringing in 2 of the same but there were enough others I wanted.

Wow, very nice. Looks like those unissued Polish M44's.

That would fit nicely next to my M52 sniper if you ever decide to sell it. ;-)
