Mosin Nagant Serial Number Database
Apr 02, 2007 If you want a Mosin with maximum battle action, get a pre-war Finn. These are mostly M-27's, M-28's and M28/30's, with a mix of early model M-91's as well. When Finland felt the Red Army's hammerstroke in 1939 they had to call up every possible asset, including pretty much every Mosin in the country.
- Apr 28, 2020 She’s a numbers matching no hand-guard 1917 Remington with serial 240743. It’s still 7.62x54R and marked same as you have pictured, but also includes the Finnish army “SA” and some other.

Mosin Nagant Serial Number Lookup
I need to enter this rifle into my C&R book, as well as fill out the FA-10. I'm a bit puzzled as to which number counts as the serial number. Here's what I see...
The same 4-digit number is stamped on the buttplate, floorplate and bolt. I also see that same number stamped onto the top of the receiver (just behind the rear sight) but preceded with a '10X' whatever that means.
Meanwhile, on the left side of the receiver just in front of the bolt is a bunch of stuff that was electrostenciled in by the same person: a different 5-digit number, the make/model/caliber, 'R Guns' (some company?) and 'Carpentersville, IL'.
I won't even mention the faded random characters scattered about.
So, which do I put down on the forms?
I'll probably have similar 91/30 questions too but I'm not there yet.
