Hey now there's a couple of real beauties. Can't imagine how dissimilar they would be to shoot. "ones for fighting, ones for fun" :thup:
I've been considering, and so far resisting, going down the...
Yesterday I was called away and had to leave the post unfinished, but I wanted to thank you for the question on how tight to make this area (under top barrel band) in relation to barrel heating. I...
I really like the A.P.I circles on your target Ridolpho. Just like the Soviets did it. More relevant. Having said that, you're 41 "simplified" shoots very well. Correction, you sir shoot it very...
Oh, I forgot to include if anyone wants a "similar' grip there's always this. I hear they work quite well.
After looking at your pistol yesterday, I was playing around with my own Yugo M-57 (trying to imagine what it would take to duplicate yours...:surrender:)
With all the quality frame and other...
Hey thanks man. I'm a dedicated tinkerer at heart and love a challenge. I've never read any thing with respect to the idea I want to try, so what the heck I have to at least try.
In your case,...
Greetings Mr. Ridolpho,
In all my righteous might, I'm determined to gain the inevitable upper hand and push on to absolute victory...err, I mean, get my 41 SVT-40 to shoot better. So I'm reaching...
Hi Karmuba! What a neat job on that M-57. Congrats to the artist and to you for having such a unique piece. For the moment..the market seems to be well stocked with surplus Yugo M-57's, but not like...
For reloading it is an interesting avenue for sure. I'm not "there" yet but I plan on getting set up to reload in the future. So for now I shoot mostly Soviet Surplus. My Tok's love that steel case...
Well Mr. Ridolpho we were having a bit of a Chinook effect as well. The warm temps came and went quickly, but not before nature dumped 30-50 ml of rain on top of the frozen ground. So most of that...
That's outstanding for some old surplus. Really good for anything else. Thanks for that. My fears have been put to rest.
Little update for you Mr.Ridolpho. I've still not fired any of it, the dang wind chill kept things at a frosty -21C today. Maybe first of the week things will improve. I'll report back with my...
"The" ammo. Really. ? I'm a little surprised by that. But that's surplus for ya, some good, some not so good, and fortunately mostly all goes bang. Where the projectile goes?...results can vary....
Yeah, maybe. (But didn't they invent gunpowder?) Pee yew...wonder how bad it smelled back then? :madsmile:
Well good to know, thanks Mr.R!
I've not had the best success with Chinese ammo in the past. It would shoot all over the place. And yes, it was very dirty stuff that smelled like FART. After I...
Sorry about going all Lazarus on this thread, but I was Google searching and bumped into it.
So is there any consensus here on what is the better of the two surplus 7.62x54r, Chinese or Soviet? ...
Hey all,
Any chance you could detail your trigger working tricks to us?
I have a 1942 TT-C and a 1953 Polish TT-33. The Polish Radom is super nice, clean break and much lighter trigger pull...
