I just got one last friday. Cam is broken so no pics till then. I love it. Its a lot of fun to shoot.

wow. Great story on that one.

 

Only thing it is missing is being an Ex Dragoon fighting in the Spanish civil war. =)

 

currently have a discussion of what the MO marks mean on a russian firearms forum... as MO is absolutely not "Ministerstvo Oborovno", er Ministry of Defense, as well, it didnt exist back then.

 

Common belief it was marked for "Moscowskaya Oblast", meaning Moscow Region. In either case... great piece!

Ted, unless you speak and read Russian... it is futile. =) Furthermore, google will not give an accurate translation.
