its not as local as I would like. its called AMMO Depot and its off I-30 between Royse City and Greenville. they are pretty good about dealing with milsurps.

yeah, that's really my fault! you go ahead and tell your wife that! where did you order from?

you know it!

picked this up back a month or so ago, from the same LGS that the T-53 came from. nice early Arsenal 26 with Albanian replacement stock. all matching, except for stock. nice bore and shoots very well considering the muzzle has some chrome wear from cleaning rod use. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/...

work as usual. been out of the country a few times since our coffee house meeting. i have access to a private range now so we need to get together and go shoot. let me know!

i bought from a LGS, well sort of, he was 50 miles away. i remembered the last time i was in and bought one of the sino-banian SKS' he had like 10 on the rack, as well as other assorted Mosins. when i went back all he had was the T-53's and one M 44 @ $300. he is an old collector as well and gives C...

i have recently found out it is an assembly number, you know like inspector 12 on your underwear!

got my first Chinese Type 53 last week. 296 arsenal, built 12/53 according to receiver. stock in pretty good condition. hand guard fair, no cracks. action is buttery smooth compared to most Mosins and it has a great trigger. better than any of my M44's. i'm curious about the 77 markings on receiver ...

thanks, Dolk.

turns out the 306 is actually a /366\ arsenal. old age eyes up close!

not from SOG. from LGS. I know the whole config is fake. i am asking whether the scope is new production Russian or Chinese crap made to look russian. sorry for the confusion. I have a real one from RGuns. have not seen the green colored PU style scope before.

well i bought it. i was looking at the SOG one's. wanted a shooter to bang around with and hunt hogs with. i got it for a good price. here is a pic of the scope:




is it a true russian scope or chinese knock-off?

are these fakes or refurbs? saw one yesterday on a '42 91/30 CH marked rescoped ex-sniper.

stock is blade cut. ferrule looks to have been spike converted to blade, shallow channel, blade does not fit completely. bayo is peened correctly. i cannot turn it.

picked up an arsenal 366 today for less than $300. it is a pinned barrel, stamped, all matching numbers with blade bayo. guessing this is a parts gun? vietnam refurb? it's looks fired very little. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y178/lmc1016/100_1031.jpg http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y178/lmc101...

wished I'd kept all the Romanians I got early on from the Century U-Fix-Em pile. thats a good looking weapon and glad it shoots well also.

picked this up this last week. got it for a good price, actually did some trading for it. had scope mount receiver and early norinco scope. luckily previous owner found the original receiver cover. it was still covered in cosmo when I got it. owner stated he never shot it even after putting the scop...

picked up a S&W 5904 for cheap the other day. thought it would be a good carry piece when out looking for ol' mean and nasty. had some wear but functions great. put a coat of AlumaHyde II OD green on the frame for now, will do the slide and externals in flat black later. here are some before and...

what state you hunting in? i've used 7N1 and Russian LB for pigs in my PSL and MN.

Anyone want a Voere Cougar in .06?

maybe? how much? pic? (damn, Not another gun!) did I say that out loud? or was I thinking it??
