new rifle!

Post by blackwolf97 »

I apologize now. My laptop keyboard got damaged. The button between the A and the D won't work. I'm going to replace that letter with a 5.

My LG5 had a Ru55ian 5K5 for $500 out the door. The mfr 5tamp look5 like Izhevsk to me and wa5 dated 1953. That mfr i5 an arrow in5ide a triangle. Pic5 to follow real 5oon. Rifling and crown look great and the only non-matching wa5 the magazine box.

Sorry to hear about your keyboard. But that post made me laugh anyway. :lol:
I need to replace the 5K5 I sold a few years ago. My biggest firearms regret was selling that rifle. Mine was Chinese, though. I think I want a Russian one next time. Nice get!

Nope. I think I'll take my SKS and my wife's Remington 770 .270 out at the same time...when it arrives.

and I decided to take the wireless keyboard from my desktop until my "new" laptop keyboard comes in.

Is 5K5 on our forum's new approved SKS terminology list?
:lol:

And now I get your post in the other thread, Des.

Nice pickup. I can't comment on the price, but if it's worth it to you it's all good :toast:

Yep Pac, It is all a code. Kind of like that dumb treasure movie where they try to find ben franklins treasure under the streets. Crack the code and you will find the great stash of weapons :thumbsup:
