Norinco Type 53 7.62×54R

Serial#3227789

A Chinese-made Mosin–Nagant–style carbine, the Type 53 is a PLA copy of the Soviet M44/Mosin family chambered in 7.62×54R. Light, rugged, and built as a service gun with a folding bayonet on many examples, it’s a popular mil-surp collectible and shooter — great for range work, hunting medium game with the right load, or as a mil-surp display piece.
