Pale Horse
one quarter civilized
1896 dated Tula M91, Finn reworked. Has both the SA mark and the POULASTAITOS mark which was only used by the Finns for a month or so in 1942. Still has the Imperial eagles, no Soviet markings. The bore is dark, but the rifling is still in great condition. The bore slugged at .312" but felt "looser" towards the middle while slugging. I've been down the barrel with a micrometer and can detect no bulges. I've only shot once at cans at 25 yards, so it's not a total basket case, but I just don't know how it'll do when it comes to a real accuracy test. So, I'm asking $160 FTF in the Monroe area. I had posted pics on Gunboards asking about value and was told $350-400, but that was before I slugged the barrel (and before the economy went to hell). I prefer PMs here but can also be emailed at mn9130@bayou.com
