What distinguishes original Mosin Nagant M91/30 rifles from arsenal-refinished ones?

What are the key markings to look for when inspecting a Mosin Nagant M91/30?

Look for arsenal markings like the Tula star or Izhevsk arrow, hex receiver configurations (indicating older production), and matching serial numbers on the bolt, receiver, and floor plate for authenticity.

Are bayonets included with Mosin Nagant rifles from 6-gun crates?

Yes, rifles from these specific 6-gun crates are guaranteed to include bayonets. However, matching serial numbers between the bayonet and the rifle are not guaranteed.

What is the minimum order quantity for these Mosin Nagant crates?

Due to shipping logistics, the minimum order is 18 rifles, which equates to three 6-gun crates, typically shipped on a pallet. Orders can be increased in increments of 6 rifles.
