Got a call from the gunshop!

Post by dropkick66 »

So he called me and told me he got in a 1920 hex receiver and he says it has a star stamp but it was not in the normal spot. Well, I'm looking at it after work in two hours. Sale price applies at 109 bucks. God I can't wait

I'd buy that, 1918-1922ish are hard to find years for mosins.

Maybe it will be a script logo?

Regardless, a 1920 is not abundant.

A 1920 Tula is or was a M91. Tula didn't start Dragoon production until 1923. If complete, that is a superb price!

A win against Sunderland will make it a perfect week for you. I'd rather see the Gunners finish 7th or 8th and not have to play in the league of shame (uefa)
Oh right, pictures please of the 1920.
Is it just me, or are there some ridiculously good deals being had down there lately?

In 1920 the Russian revolution was still being fought, revolution date rifles are always limited production, 1918-1920 would be among the hardest to come by as these were the years of some serious butchery going on across Russia.

LOL!!! I didn't get it for a second. Then I about lost a mouthful of tea! Yeah, when he's gotta go, he lets you know. He does this weird spin, leap thing over and over right by the door. He's learned that if he annoys me, he can get my attention. lol

The cat will climb on the bed and howl if the food dish becomes empty in the night, and he has learned to move fast enough to avoid the flying pillow :)
