Manufactured in 1942 at the Izhevsk armory in Russia, replete with hammer and sickle stamped upon the barrel shroud. The only thing I fault UPS and/or J&G Sales for is a hole the bolt handle pierced through two boxes...and one good reason why folks revamp to a bent-bolt configuration. Still and all, it isn't as if J&G recently a-birthed and had yet to discover the peculiarities of straight bolt design. Not that anything seems amiss...but punctured packaging isn't cool.
Am awaiting at least 4 types of ammo...147...170...180...and 203 grainers in both softpoint and fmj design. Will report back after some range time.
What is that thing, a sight adjustment tool or an oil bottle?
ReplyDeleteA bottle, divided into two sections. Lube oil in one, heavy duty cleaning fluid in the other. Or, as I've been told, emptied of everything, cleaned then filled with vodka for a quick nip.
