Ab, I picked up the phone, called my pawn shop buddy/ffl and told him to order it. I think it was four days later he called back and it was in his hands. I loaded up 10 rounds last night to 60 grains of Varget (Hogdon book load). Gonna see how they shoot today if the heat doesn't change my mind. Might even set up the Chrony to check fps.
After looking at pics of the earlier guns it is obvious that the Russians have vastly improved on QA/QC with these little rifles. Mine is really nice for the price ($750 out the door). I am amamazed at how light, handy and quick pointing it is. Money well spent if you have this particular itch and don't want to take out a second morgage on the house to scratch it.
