Hey /k/ I found this rifle part(barrel?) a few years ago hidden in my house that i bought from an old guy who i know was in the winter war during ww2. I know absolutely nothing about guns but i thought maybe you guys could tell me what kind of rifle it belonged to?
Im assuming its russian from the letters but i might be wrong. Posting some pictures of it.

How about posting the text near the rifling which is obviously the only part that matters?
>>
Well, there you go. 1938 manufactured Tula made nugget.
>>
>>32835133
Im getting there. Fucking Hiroshima wont let me post as fast as i want.
>>
>>32835080
>Blade front sight
Got a length on that bad boy?
>>
>>32835146
A Mosin nagant? I see. Thanks /k/. Were these used by the finns or the russians? So i know if its a war trophy or a keepsake
>>
>>32835162
Both, this one was russian made so probably a trophy
>>
>>32835161
73.5 cm full lenght including the rifling. Barrel diameter at the end(exit hole?) is 7mm
>>
>>32835162

Both. Finns captured shitloads of them and reissued them. They may have manufactured them too, or at least parts. This barrel is russ though.

Nice. Does the barrel come off easy or do you have to deconstruct the whole gun? Googled some pictures of tula made nagants and they dont look like the have a screw on barrel
>>
>>32835080
Where'd you get that rug at?
>>
>>32835245
Theres a stamp on the side that says "SA" btw. Dunno if that changes anything
>>
>>32835190
It's a 91/30 barrel, but the front sight is atypical.
>>
>>32835255
Pics? SA is Finnish Army.
>>
Exchanging barrels on any rifle is normally a job for a gun smith. I know, I know, there'll be 20 people in line saying they have done it. But this is /k/ Since I have not done a nagant barrel exchange myself I'll not say how 'easy' it is.

SA, on militaria in general. normally mean Suomi Armee, aka Finnish Army.

>>32835247
Are you making fun of my rug anon? Cuz its cozy AF.

New rug since the other one wasnt /fa/ anough
>>
>>32835337
Yep, looks like a Finnish capture 91/30, which makes it historically significant but not worth a great deal judging on its condition

Custom sight maybe?
>>
>>32835352
tell us where you got the other rug fagit
>>
>>32835370
The Finns would retrofit the front sights with blade sights instead of the typical post-in-tube, but all the Finnish blades I've seen in person were three-pronged instead of the one.
>>
>>32835375
I would but I doubt you and i live in the same country anon
>>
>>32835412
if it was a custom job you can just say that
>>
>>32835412
If you live in Finland, which seems possible judging from your rug, know that a rifled barrel is a part of a weapon which requires a permit.
>>
>>32835429
I dont live in finland. Even if i did. A permit for what? The barrel? Do finns need a permit for an iron rod? I dont have a rifle i have a screwed of barrel
>>
>>32835461
Weapon parts need a permit to acquire and possess just like firearms, applies to the important bits like rifled barrel and bolt assembly
>>
>>32835461
outside of a dozen or so countries in the west firearms and firearm parts are heavily regulated, a normal dude that just wants to hunt needs to wade through a sea of red tape just to get a permit to buy the gun.
>>
>>32835337
Was the old Finnish guy named Simo Hayah by any chance?
>>
>>32835493
>>32835499
>>32835499
Hm I didnt know that. I live in a country where its not illegal to own parts. Just live ammunition.
Maybe I should turn it in anyway
>>
>>32835761
NEIN, just put in a chest somewhere. If your turn it it has a high chance of being destroyed.
>>
Dumb question, but I didn't think that 91/30s had removable barrels. Did the Finns just chop saw and thread the receivers or are the barrels actually threaded?

The teeth you see on the left, are a cross view of the barrel threadings.
>>
>>32835761

It doesn't have any value unless you some day get hold of a nagant with a ruined barrel. Then you can in theory restore it a bit. In practice that nugent will probably be rusted into an anchor even before you start, but if you live far enough east in Europe then maybe there is a chance of getting hold of a wreck from someone.

>>32836098
Huh. Did not know that. Thank you good stranger.
