Tula Dragoon

I was wondering if a Tula Dragoon barrel is rare or collectable? If so, what
other than model makes it so?

A true Dragoon is a specific early model, rare these days. Most Dragoons were modified to be more like the M91/30.
The Dragoon has a longer barrel than the M91/30, but shorter than the M91. Upper handguard is different too.
I still kick myself for selling mine before I knew my way around Mosins!

The barrel, upper handguard and stock are dragoon. As is the cleaning rod retainer nut. The sights are M91/30, the screw-type sling escutcheons have been replaced. I bought it for $109, to use the hex receiver. Now I am wondering if I should hang on to it?
