Ishevek arsenal build.

What year is yours? Mine is stamped 1936 and has the triangle stamp too.

Not sure about the 25.

Here is a site with pics and examples of markings.

oooo...well someone else out there has your sn as well.
thanks for the help
from what i understand,the extra triangle means its a sniper...but i have no scope or mount etc...and cant explain the 25....im thinking its a re-arsenal mark.........but by who....?

If it had been a sniper you would probably see where the mount had been attached to the receiver. The Russians often filled in the holes and re-polished the receivers when they re-arsenaled the guns.

Never heard of the extra triangle being a sniper model, but then again I'm no expert.
