1943 Izhevsk-manufactured EX-sniper Mosin-Nagant 91/30 rifle, all numbers matching and in excellent arsenal-refurbished condition. This example has a circle C sniper marking on the barrel shank, and the left side of the barrel bears a sniper serial number, indicating it was originally a PU sniper-configured Mosin before later refurbishment work.
This rifle is an appealing example for Mosin collectors because it retains evidence of its earlier sniper configuration while presenting in clean arsenal-refurbished condition. The 1943 Izhevsk production date places it in the heart of wartime Soviet manufacture, and the surviving sniper-related markings add meaningful collector interest beyond a standard 91/30 infantry rifle. With its all-matching numbers, excellent refurbished condition, circle C marking, and visible sniper serial number, this rifle offers both strong condition and notable wartime sniper history.
