The stock is missing some laquer, the bore is counterbored, but it's not bad overall. No rust under the stock from when I had it apart to fix the trigger pin.
How can it be a 1922 gun when the 91/30 didn't happen until 1930 you might ask? Well, the Soviet Union reworked lots and lots of longer M-1891's to the new standard.
The barrel is a 1922 Izhevsk. The receiver is Chatellerault, which means it was made between 1892 and 1896. Technically, this is not a firearm! This is also my oldest Mosin part, the 1899 receiver on the Finn M39 being next oldest.
Edit to add: numbers matching bayonet!
