In 1894, Captain N. Yurlov, being a member of the Commission for the development of a small-caliber rifle, submitted to the Executive Commission for the Rearmament of the army his carbine design, converted from the Mosin dragoon rifle. After the manufacture of 11 carbines in 1895, work was stopped at the Sestroretsk Arms Factory. But, the experience of the Russian-Japanese War of 1904-1905 showed that the carbine is needed and necessary in many cases. And in 1906, the GAU returned to the issue of converting rifles into carbines. From 1907 to 1913, about 1,600 rifles were converted into carbines, most of which were dragoons, and about 150 pieces of the Cossack model. The alteration according to the Yurlov system was as follows: the barrel was shortened to 507 mm and sharpened along the entire length, new sight and front sight were installed, the bed was shortened and made thinner, cutouts for ramrod rings were altered, new false rings were made, the barrel plate, the butt head and the ramrod were replaced. The Mosin carbine of the 1907 model entered service with the Russian police, then soldiers of machine—gun companies, partly in artillery and baggage teams, and in 1914 - in some Cossack regiments. Cossacks during the war spontaneously and very soon replaced them with foreign captured carbines — Austrian, German and Turkish.
