1952 Hungarian
Serial No OG9627

£650

Excellent Condition

After WWII the Soviet Union shared much of its weapons technology with its satellite countries, including the Mosin rifles and carbines.
Hungarian M44 carbines are now showing up occasionally in th UK, but the Hungarian M91/30 is not that common.
There are two versions, the M91/30 PU sniper and the standard M91/30.
The Hungarian M91/30 follows the same basic pattern as the Soviet M91/30 with few differences. The barrel shank markings are "02", which is the country code for Hungary, the date, the Hungarian crest, and the serial number.
Hungarians production of the standard M91/30 rifle was undertaken at FEG in Budapest. Production only ran for a couple of years
These Mosins will be marked with a 02 on the barrel shank and also have the Hungarian crest.
The 02 is the Eastern Bloc country code for Hungary and the crest is a star & hammer.

The stocks of these rifles will have a 02 and a B ( Budapest Arsenal ) marking in almost every case.
The various small parts will also bear Hungarian markings with the 02 proofs commonly encountered on the bolt parts.

Original Sling - Still has Some Slight Dried Storage Cosmoline in Places
