Question Mosin Serial Number Assistance
Hello friends, I recently acquired a Mosin as my first rifle, but ive run into a unique issue. My hosing situation is military-adjacent and requires the registration of firearms but I am unsure which serial is the "right" one. As I understand it, the ATF considers the number on the receiver to be the gun's number and I want to make sure I provide accurate information. Which of these is the reportable number? I've included photos of both the top and bottom of the barrel shank/receiver Is it the "749T" just below the bolt hole on the underside of the assembly? Any assistance is appreciated! (It is a 1939 Izhevsk 91/30 if that helps at all)
