Mosin Nagant 91/30 Sling Escutcheon – Russian and Finnish Mix
This Mosin Nagant 91/30 sling escutcheon listing covers original surplus stock hardware used around the sling slots on Mosin-Nagant rifles. The group includes a mix of Russian rectangular sling slot liners and Finnish round-hole sling swivel escutcheons. Because Soviet and Finnish service rifles used different sling arrangements, these parts show two distinct solutions to the same area of the stock.
Mosin Nagant 91/30 sling escutcheon
The thin rectangular opening is the standard Soviet sling slot escutcheon, also called a sling slot liner. On many 91/30 stocks from the 1930s, arsenals installed screwed-in escutcheons. Later wartime rifles often used stamped inserts pressed into the stock, which simplified production. The smaller circular-hole type is the Finnish sling swivel escutcheon, an oval plate made for a wire sling swivel rather than the standard Soviet dog-collar slot arrangement.
Russian and Finnish stock hardware patterns
The Soviet rectangular liner belongs to the familiar 91/30 sling slot layout and fits the visual character most people associate with Russian-service Mosin stocks. The Finnish round-hole type reflects a different approach and pairs with Finnish sling hardware rather than the standard Soviet slot system. Set side by side, the two patterns show the practical differences between Russian and Finnish stock furniture.
Condition and selection
These parts come in surplus condition and may vary in finish, age tone, and small production details. Because this listing includes a Russian and Finnish mix, individual pieces can differ noticeably in form and construction. Call for cherry picking if you want a particular style, such as the rectangular Soviet liner or the round-hole Finnish escutcheon.
