I have a VERY similar rifle.  Does the finish feel "waxy" to you at all?

Looks like both Izhevsk stamps are double struck.  Nice rack.  Is it from this year?  If hash would make us an outdoors forum you could post the story (hint hint)

I passed on one of these in similar condition when I picked up that oddball Polish/Hungarian/Romanian mixmaster that I have posted here.  I'm thinking I should have bought it.  Hopefully next gun show.  200 a good rate on one like that?  I still need a Russian, Hungarian and a T53 to round out my m44s.

Now that is an interesting piece.  A keeper for sure.  I'd like to know what Richardinny thinks as bring backs are his forte.  He is a member here but rarely checks in.  Send him the link to this thread and see what he has to say about it.

I like the used look. I need to get one of these.
  Still looking for one?

I hear ya,  Sometimes deals fall into your lap.  Took me 7 years to find my NEW and Remington locally though.  My mosin collecting still lacks an m27 and m28 and I'm always on the hunt for cheap local SCWs.  I should probably grab one of those t 53s too.  Seems like you have a great Mosin collection.  They weren't kidding when they said its a sickness.

Nice rifle!  I think it cleaned up well, however would recommend a less is more approach on the next dirty stock.  Before going turp n tar a light cleaner like remoil or similar may have done the trick.  Too bad about the auction house being a clusterfuk with "junk boxes"  I'd have been tempted to stick around to try and find that rod. 

  Have you tried shooting it until it gets hot and then cleaning the bore again?  Sometimes this helps blast out a lot of old gunk that brushes and patched can't touch.


Btw now you need to make posts about all those other rifles pictured.  Looks like you have some nice ones!

Nice score!  Did they have anything else of interest?  (I assume no since we haven't seen the pics)
