The Mosin-Nagant, also known as Mosin's rifle, is a five-shot, bolt-action military rifle with an internal magazine. It commonly uses the 7.62×54mmR cartridge. Developed from 1882 to 1891, it saw service in the Russian Empire, the Soviet Union, and other countries. With over 37 million units produced since 1891, it's one of the most widely manufactured bolt-action rifles in history. Despite its age, it remains in use worldwide due to its reliability, simplicity, accuracy, and ability to be fully disassembled with a bayonet.

Rare early war example of the Russian Infantry Rifle, made before wartime quality dropped. 1939 is a particularly interesting year and this rifle may have seen action in the Winter War,  when Russia invaded Finland in the bitter cold of 1939.
