I know the MN91/30 is not exactly a rare rifle, probably one of the most prolific rifles out there next to the esteemed AK47, but I was wondering how common it is to have one that has matching serial numbers both barrel and bolt as well as a near pristine bore?
The engraving on the barrel says 1939 which I assume is the manufacture date of the rifle, it's pretty worn as far as the muzzle wear is concerned, though I don't think it's been through a lot of combat if any at all (It has the usual dings and dents in the stock and such)
There is some very, ever so slight amount of rust on the bolt face and tip of the firing pin, but that's it.
So how common is this, can someone help me out here? Stampings does say Russia.
Here's a picture of the year and markings that I can find on the receiver.
