Those saw service with Imperial Germany?
Yes.
My rifle is proof of it
I knew the Wehrmacht got some from the Anschluss but never the imperials
Is there any documentation on that? I’d love to read
Can we see the proofs?
>it's gonna be like the 16th time I've posted it here
Meh
I don’t recall seeing it
@Magos Squid "The Life Raft" I'm gonna fucking pee in you if you tag me again at 2:20 in the morning
@Sadmin DO IT FGT I GIVE YOU MONEY
And the remarked barrel
So what are the imperial proofs?
It's got 1 more mark under the volt but I really dont want to strip her because she bites
Also it's the first serial number
The S is for 8x56r right?
Traces back to a bundle of rifles for Imperial Germany
Neat
And yeah this one is 8x56R
What about Weimar stuff, or is that just sorta implied?
The 2nd serial number
It has 3
All on the stock
Damn nigga
That’s a lot of history in one rifle
Yuup
Is it a stutzen or full length?
Stutz
Some things suggest that she used to be full length at one point
fugg
Not bubba'd
That’s like, Finn mosin tier
For amount of owners and conversions
A real oddball
Just the wood panels at the end of the rifle look like they were recut. Albeit professionally or at least by someone who knew exactly what they were doing
Duffle cut or actual repair?
I assume just whenever the rifle was shortened if it was shortened. They didnt wanna toss out the wood so they just cut it I'd assume
