M91/30 ex Dragoon

Post by Dutch Mosin » Fri Nov 09, 2012 3:38 pm

A couple of weeks ago I got a call from a fellow collector.
He told me had a rifle for sale that I might be interested in.
It was a Mosin Nagant M91/30.

What he didn't tell me was that it was an all matching 1924 Izhevsk ex Dragoon rifle.
I found that out after I drove over to him to check out the rifle.
I didn't have such a rifle in my collection.
Now I do. :mrgreen:

As always I disassembled the rifle and took pictures for documenting it.

Thanks kermit.
Now that I have found this one I will start hunting for an original Dragoon.
I have a couple of M91's in my collection but no Dragoon.
There has to be one out there with my name on it. :D
