ANTIQUE CHATTELLERAULT 1895 RECEIVER
Very good condition WWII Finnish Model 1939 Mosin Nagant Rifle in 7.62 x 54r caliber that has the VKT Arsenal marking on the barrel and dated 1942. This interesting gun was produced using a repurposed receiver from an 1895 Chatellerault production M1891 rifle and so qualifies as an antique, no FFL required to purchase. Rifle is import marked on the barrel and has matching serial numbers on the barrel and bolt. Floorplate does not match and buttplate is unnumbered. This is common and correct for Finnish Mosin Nagant Rifles. Metal finish is original blue with some wear on the buttplate. Bore is very good and bright with strong rifling. Stock has original finish and shows some normal handling marks. Complete with correct original cleaning rod. A nice Finn M39 with a desirable antique receiver.
