I'm thinking a 91/30, they are the original, full length barrel? Or is there something with a longer barrel than that, or maybe something shorter than the M44?

After a complete Teardown and Inspection I discovered it is a 1906 Sestroryetsk Hex Reciever with mostly Tula Parts pre 1928. It had a Civil Guard number on the bolt that has been scrubbed, but still visible... The Handguard is an Early copper riveted One...also an early Cleaning rod. The Handguard retainers are very unusual left hand screw to open ones... The Sling swivels are in round Hole escutcheon Plates. The early nosecap is Tula...

Darn right. I love them 91's. 91/30's are cool 44's are ok. But these older rifles are the coolest of all.
