I've had a few of these over the years. I didnt see a caliber listed. Are you sure this one isn't in 30-06? Some were. They were rechambered and issued to US troops after the Russians didnt pay for them. I dont remember seeing US bomb proof marks on my Russian M91. That was many years ago, but seeing US arsenal marks makes me think "US issued" right away

Bannerman M91s were 30-06 but they were marked on the barrel and the barrel would have been cut back as well. Very few bannermans retained the length or the full stock of an M91.
