But it's kind of unique. It's chambered from the factory in 7.62X54R. I guess they had a few left after Russia defaulted on their payments for these in WW I. Pretty sure this one has never been to Russia, no Russian proof marks on the barrel, no clip loading add on, and Russia surely never ordered them with peephole sights. According to serial#, manufactured in 1916.

Love those '95.

Too bad winchester-browning stopped to make them again with Miroku.

Don't you hit the tang sight when you open the action ???

Nope, I believe it stops just short of the sight.

At least you can get ammo for it!

Nice rifle. Very cool.

Gandog,
that is a beaut - and a keeper. I would not let that one out of your possession.
