I picked up the M27 and my LE No. 5 Mk. 1 today, finally released from CA 10 day wait jail.
This rifle is fantastic. The quality and workmanship blows your average Soviet refurb out of the ballpark. The bore is outstanding- sharp rifling and excellent crown. Can't wait to shoot it and give you guys a range report!
The stock is a correct two piece M27 stock, with Popsicle stick front barrel band. A few minor dings, but in beautiful condition.
Reciever- 1917 Tula
Bolt- mix of early Tula and Izhevsk, SN matches barrel
Magazine- later Tula, non matching line out SN
Buttplate- early Tula, non matching SN
Rear sight- Remington spring
Pics!
