Enemy at the Gates *Mosin experts*

Does anyone know what kind of M38 Tania Chernova has in this movie? I don't know much about Mosins as far different models are concerned. I can't seem to get a still frame where I can see if it's a round or hex receiver.

Go to imfdb.com to see some stills, I'm on my iPhone so I still can't make it out to clearly but it looks round to me.

There's a picture of her resting it against a wall that offers full view of the receiver.

Yep, there's also a a note of how the sling is not attached in the traditional sense. More of an expedient repair.

IMFDB was my first stop.

+1. I used to own a Finnish M39. Wish I had hung on to that one. Fine rifles!

Thanks guys.

That cover bothers me too. MIrror image and the people putting it together just don't know any better.

Wasn't aware of any M38's being made with a hex receiver

TO my knowledge there were none MADE with a hex receiver, however there were a few hex receivers that were rebuilt into an M38. Not very common but it did happen.
