    MAS 36 Thumb

    Good Afternoon All,

    Just got a Vietnam bring back MAS36. While cleaning out the mud from the Mekong Delta, I grab the unique bolt handle with an awkward grip. When I pulled the bolt back, my thumb got munched by the peep sight and it took a bit of me with it.

    As a Mauser, Enfield, Springfield, Steyr shooter, I just did not pay attention to the unique setup on the MAS. Tomorrow to the range and the stories it is going to tell.

    Randy
