This is definitely a case of someone needing their tools taking off them!.....how to take one collectable and quite rare Mosin and turn it into a worthless monstrosity*

Call it flashbacks!......I must admit I'd forgot I posted that :oops:

Goes to show that if it was "unmodified" it'd probably sold three times over by now!

Feck me! I looked at the blokes website and his leading paragraph goes;

“Only Classic Rifles are interesting - Why! because your not purchasing just a rifle, but a complete package that contains character, accessories and 50 - 100 years of history. Modern rifles maybe accurate and highly efficient but they are sterile, inert and quite frankly, boring.”

Amazing what “interesting” things you can create with an ego and a fist full of hallucinogenics!!!!
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

Looks like the underfolding stock from the Romanian AKMS variant, the PM Md.65, either that or it is an early (and rare) Russian AKS-47 stock.It also looks like there may be a bit of butchered AK receiver involved in its fitting.

Who is the target market for this type of rifle though? Its going to be pants for target shooting, and deer hunters aren't going to be interested in it either at that price point (you could get a new Howa or Weatherby for that price, or a complete used setup).
