Variations of the Rifles Mosin-Nagant

From Karl-Heinz Wrobel

This „article" deals with the variations of the rifles and carbines Mosin-Nagant and shows the different brands on the different models of those rifles. At least 23 countries used, altered and branded those guns in some cases. Many more states used them. The following list will help you to find out, that you NEVER will be able to collect all variations of the rifles Mosin-Nagant. Some of those rifles are ultra rare, like the old Russian carbines, the Finnish snipers or the Polish wz. 91/98/23. Though I enlisted just rifles with standard infantry calibers (no training rifles in cal. .22 for instance), you will find more than 260 variations. But I am sure I did not enlist all, so I would be glad if you would tell me the ones I forgot.
