This M91/30 Mosin Nagant was built at the Tula Arsenal in 1939, serial 9130032263, chambered in 7.62x54R with a 29-inch round barrel. The bore is bright with strong rifling, the serial numbers match, and the magazine floor plate and butt plate were force matched. Overall it rates very good with only minimal handling impressions, and the bolt action runs smoothly and functions as it should. The rifle comes as a full kit: bayonet, sling, cleaning kit, oiler and ammunition pouch. SKU L2026-10922, listed used.

In New Jersey this is a range and collection rifle, not a deer gun. The state allows only shotguns, muzzleloaders and bows for deer, and a centerfire rifle like this one is not legal for that hunt. What you get instead is a long-barreled military bolt action with its accessories, a reasonable choice for a club with a rifle line or for a collector who wants a dated Tula gun with matching numbers. Buying it takes your FPIC and a dealer transfer.
