The infantry units were equiped with Mosin-Nagant rifles manufactured by Remington, rather than with Springfields or Enfields used by most of the rest of the Army.

That's just too cool. I own a few 91-30s but never knew there was a Remington version let alone what a Remington version was used for. Thanks for the info!

I have only one: Finnish 1930s make.

And like many Mosin’s it is nuts on accurate (if I install the bayonet).
