Re: Please help in trying to identify
I’m pretty sure he wasn’t a member here. He wasn’t that computer literate, but was very smart in history!! Wish I had more time with him to ask and discuss with him about these rifles. Never enough time! Did you see the No.4 MK1 I posted??
Re: Please help in trying to identify
Yeah, that has been sporterized. The good news is the barrel doesn't look like it was chopped. Enough $ could put it back into original configuration. But probably too much $. I don't know what these bring these days, but unless somebody else here knows different, it wouldn't really be worth it.Wakemeupbruce75 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 09, 2022 10:07 pmI’m pretty sure he wasn’t a member here.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

You inherited some pretty sweet guns. The '23 Tula is fairly uncommon. The last gun is a Peter the Great Tula with a beautiful shank stamping. This one looks Finn too.

Re: Please help in trying to identify
thank you.....really wasn't sure what I had when I got them. Was honestly just going to get rid of them. Saw this forum and I figured I'd give it a shot and see what I really had.
