    Great gun, but photos not helped by the distracting background. Couldn't you have laid it on the floor with the plain carpet?

    Yes your right Bob,sorry, I didn't really expect it to work. These were just pictures I took really fast just to test if I could upload them or not. Next time I will put a lot more thought into the pictures I post. I'm just tickled it worked

    thanks,I know its not a desirable ww2 rifle, but that's kind of what I love about it. I shoot it sparingly because it's condition is great. I haven't measured the TE or the muzzle but I would expect the wear to be minimal due to the rifling in the bore is excellent.

    Thanks Jim, I have owned it for many years and even though shot sparingly, over the years have mounted to hundreds of rounds and I have never had a failure of any kind with it. She runs like an absolute clock
