So I picked up a few milsurps in a trade a few days ago. One of them was this really nice looking Mosin. I believe its Finnish with Tikkakoski markings, may be wrong. All the numbers are matching and I must say it has one of the smoothest actions I am seen on a mosin thus far. The trigger however is a bit mushy but serviceable. The bore is in excellent shape and should prove to be a fine shooter. Any ways here are some pics.
Edit: I am not very knowledgeable on Mosin's so feel free to correct me. Also This is a repost from Surplus Rifle forum, Trying to get some information on the rifle and possible value.

Looks like it was originally a hex receiver Russian Mosin Nagant that was captured by the Finns and rebarreled (I think).

The wreath looking mark on the receiver was only used in the mid 1920s.  Barrel is dated 1943.  Sights are older - dragoon/cossack sights.
I don't see any wire hangers at the sling attachment points though....

Yep easy $350 +

Harder to find year ( 1943 Tikka M91 ) in nice shape.

Recvr looks like it has PTG overstamped with Soviet Wreath which you see on recievers recycled by the Russians in the 1920-30's than the Finns got it and used the recvr to make a M91

Tikka M91 in a Finn two piece stock. The original Russian M91 was damaged or shot out and the Finns rebarreled it. Very nice rifle.
