1943 tikka m91 antique

Post by VKT1941 »

I picked this up at a lgs today they hadn't checked the tang date yet so I filled out the paper work to get it. We'll I got home and got curious checked the the tang date and turned out to be a 1897 Tula receiver. It's my first antique and my prettiest m91 I have. The bore is perfect and it's Finn matched.

Great rifle. And a antique. That's why I always take mine apart to clean and to see if there's any surprises . We need some more pictures. :Drool1:

A very good and safety conscious step for sure! To me not taking them apart is like buying a box of Cracker Jack and not looking for the prize! :lol:

Very nice rifle! Congrats! Bill

Cracker Jack is good stuff, I got my drivers license and my medical credentials from there, anybody need some brain surgery? :twisted:
