    Newfound love for the PU

    So I bought an all matching refurbed 1943 PU a while back, and it's just kinda sat in the safe. Well I finally took her out to the range to sight her in, and fell in love with the scope and trigger pull immediately. Didn't take long to have her clover leafing the bullseye. Left the range and did a little hog control with her, and could not believe the dropping power, and ruggedness of the PU. Ended the night with Enemy at the Gates while scrubbing her down. The ease of takedown and maintenance was impressive. I can easily say I have a new found love for the mosin, and she'll be seeing the range and wilderness allot more now.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    I thought so too! Especially when you're actually in it, it gives you a very small glimpse of what it may have been like as a Russianicon sniper in a bombed out home! Very eerie!

    "My father was a musician in Stalingrad. During the Germanicon occupation, the sound of his violin filled the air with magnificent music - Korsakov, Stasov - many of the great nationalist composers. To my countrymen, it was a symbol of hope. To the Germans, it was a symbol of defiance."

    Here's one for #snipersaturday . Enjoy the COD reference. All matching refurbed 1943 Izzy.

    Nice rifle. Someone needs to vacuum that piano, or is it a harpsichord?

    Thank you! And it's actually an abandoned mansion from the 50's, so no need to vacuum, lol!
