Sharp grooves and shiney bore... Pretty darn accurate too!

Passed bullet test easily wich I was surprised myself,you never know what your getting with a original barrel. And a look down the bore looked like a mirror. Trust me I've been screwed before, I once was doing a RPK build and bought a barrel (GunBroker) that in the pics passed the bullet test but when I actually had the damn thing in hand it swallowed the round up to the shoulder

Did you send it out for a cut or is that the OEM short sig barrel?

New Colt 6940 MSR. One piece "Monolithic upper."
Got this tonight at my local dealer. It's a 1969 Marlin 39A Golden Mountie, has some wear so I'll be working on it. The sling was a mother-bear to get off, probably hasn;t been off the rifle since it was made. It's in bad shape so I'll probably contact Aces and Eights to get a replacement. Also need to contact Skinner Sights for a peep.

Here's a couple of milsurps I picked up from a fellow collector earlier this month. First is a Hungarian Frommer Stop which is one of 37,000ish that were contracted by and sent to Germany during WWI.
Second is a Portuguese contract Steyr 1896 Mannlicher. From what I gather, it's one of the 4,000 'short rifles' used by the Portuguese Navy and colonial troops. It's essentially a shortened 1893 Romanian Mannlicher. It's a really interesting rifle even though I have no idea where the green paint came from....

Started out this month with some classic Belgians and seem to be ending it out with an Austrian space gun. This is what happens when I browse the internet at 3am and find stuff on sale...
Oh well. Feels like I'm doing pretty good this year. So far.

That gun definitely makes me look like a great shooter. If you haven't shot it yet, you won't be disappointed.

Just got back from the range and I thought the same thing. I'm not a great shot in general but it's hard to not drive tacks with this, I love it haha

No gun this year as yet, but some food for the Finnish M27 Nagant
and some more for the MAS1936
Waiting to hear back about a Walther P38 in .30 Luger today. Got 2 spare mags sitting for some years which I have to put to use
