Similar story with the refurb here. Lick of paint here, lick of paint there, new stock and bolt body, weld up the mounting screws, and slap some shellac on it.

All this talk about MN's and what Penguin brought up way earlier is I want a M38 now, though I'm going to search the racks for that one M38 that stands out since I missed the '40 Tula one.
I'll ask if they got a empty crate I could take home, make it into table with a glass window at the top like what this guy did from the AR15 forums in some fashion.
DO FUCKING WANT
Yes that is the sickest coffee table.
Some more stuff. Glad I joined Gunboards, both because of the info there and the guns that those guys get. On the same day there's a thread showing some of the most alarming fakes I've seen yet, and also a thread by a guy who picked up a super-rare 1942 Izhevsk PU (with the early SVT-type scope tube and SVT turrets).
In hunting news: got myself a rabbit last night, neighbours got one and also their first fox - sounded like WWIII, they must've put eight shots into the thing. They saw it after they dropped us off and headed for home, was just out the front. Saw lots of roos but let them go, legality of shooting roos without a permit of some sort is about as clear as solid granite and we didn't want to risk it.
Cant you just get a hunting license or something?
How was the rabbit? Tasty?
Dunno, we don't eat them because there's a 50/50 chance they have mixymatosis or something similar around here, released by the government to try control them. The only reason we hunt them at all is to try and keep foxes off our land or give us a known spot the foxes will gravitate to so we can shoot them instead. 'Sides, .22-250 SPBT at ten feet basically guts it for you, it was a complete mess.
Tangentially related to this thread, enjoy some glorious colour footage of the Eastern Front, mostly Berlin and Stalingrad. You will see dead bodies and dudes getting shot so don't watch it if that kind of thing gives you nightmares I guess

Wait, your government poisons your only source of game? what in the fark?
There is plenty of other shit here, but rabbits are an absolute plague. Mixymatosis was introduced ages ago to try cull them off but they've become resistant, so they hit them with other stuff too.
There are deer in the state forest just down the road from my parents' place. Dad and I are probably going to get hunting permits (necessary for shooting in state forest) and see what we can find.
Don't forget the land of most fucked up looking bugs on the planet. Hunt those fuckers instead.
