The standard Russian bolt-action infantry rifle, officially the 3-line rifle M1891, firing the 7.62 mm rimmed cartridge from a five-shot internal magazine. Russian factories could not keep up with demand, and in 1915 the government ordered about 3.3 million of them from American firms, Remington and New England Westinghouse.
