Any better pics of the reciever? im not big over the mosins but I love the uncommon ones. looks like a post war stock?

Almost all 91/30s are refurbished-was post war Soviet policy to overhaul them-only ones not done so I've seen or heard of are Finnish captured and kept by them post war-some might have ended up as souvenirs of German capture use as well but again very uncommon.

rra227-is the scabbard a repro of a Finnish use type?-scabbards were not an issue item for Russian/Soviet use-bayos were usually kept fixed or reversed at the muzzle which is why they went with a permanently attached folding type on the carbine M44.
