I am especially interested in one in very good to excellent shape without a counterbore. Thanks for any and all responses.

So if you find one, prepared to dig rather deeply into your piggy bank to afford it. That is why I gave up on trying to find one. About ten years ago I saw a few, but they were in what I consider "not the best" shape. So I resigned myself to a couple M91/59 Carbines, which are almost identical, and have better triggers besides.

However when they did the work, the rifles were completely gone thru with new barrels and more modern trigger assembly parts. I think nearly everyone who has one and compared to them to the earlier rifles well agree that they have much better feeling triggers on them. Curt

Curt I have a 91/59 and it seems to have the long 91/30 rear sight. Is it not just a shortend 91/30 barrel? Thanks.

My M 38 has the carbine rear sight. i saw 2 M-38's last gun show and bought one. My 91/59 does have a better trigger than most of my mosins.
