Russian Carbine Variants of the Mosin Nagant

It is not likely that it is a Mauser, even thou every European country and half of the rest of the World made a variant of the Mauser, including the United States, I.E. the 1903 Springfield and its variants.

The Mosin Nagant had several different carbines made from the 91/30. These included the Model 1907, the M38, the M44 and the M59 (91/59). The M38 is the most likely culprit because thats the model that has been imported into the United States the most to the best of my limited knowledge.

Check out the following link:

This is just one of the thousands out there.

Just a thought

The Poles did produce their own Mauser variant, and their own M44 Mosin Carbine variant. Both very good quality examples of their respective systems - but very different rifles! He simply didn't know his own rifle.

I once bought a Steyr Stutzen Rifle(Carbine length but with Rifle sights and hardware), the M95M variant that was rebarreled in 8X57 caliber because the Yugos did not want ammo logistics problems. Kicked like a mule! But the pawnshop had it tagged "Mauser Rifle"........ good for me, as the price was far lower than the proper M95M should have been.
