Beautiful is the word the seller uses for this pre-owned Mosin Nagant Model 1891. It comes with a matching strap, and it is chambered in 7.62x54. The barrel is 24 inches, the magazine holds four rounds, and the finish is black with a wood stock.

A 24 inch barrel is shorter than the 29 inch barrel of the standard 91/30, which suggests a carbine style or a cut-down rifle. Ask your dealer about the details, and compare them with the photos. A shorter barrel makes the rifle handier in the woods, but it increases the noise and flash.

The 7.62x54R cartridge is as old as the Mosin and still going. It does fine work on deer and hogs, and surplus ammunition is easy to find. The Mosin action is rugged and forgiving, and with a clean bore many of these rifles shoot to a decent level of accuracy.

For collectors, the 1891 name points to the first pattern. For shooters, it is a strong and simple bolt gun.

It is sold as described. It ships to a licensed dealer you choose, and the background check is completed there.
