Re: What Is This Rifle
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Rodeo Trash</div><div class="ubbcode-body">So it looks like it's a M91 w/ a barrel made in Belium. So the question is now that I know what it is, are these rifle rare and should I just leave it in the safe as is?

If it were me, I would post some more pics over at gunboards(not the best, just all I can think of off hand), or any surplus firearm website. I think there are some forums that are for Mosin Nagants. Make sure to get pics of the front end too, and better pics of the markings on the receiver/barrel/sight area.
Sorry, I just lost a lot of interest in surplus firearms when the "cheap" interesting ones and their ammo dried up, so my knowledge is very limited.
No matter what though, it is sporterized, it looks like it's in rough shape, and its a Mosin so the value won't actually be significant. Find a correct stock for it, and it might be worth a $200-$300, or more if you're lucky and it turns out to be rare.
Numbers match?
