Nice looking round receiver and 35 was the transition year for Izvesk from hex to round. Have you checked the tang date on your receiver? I'm curious since the bluing on the barrel shank and receiver are so different looking. Might be just the way the metal of each took the finish but then again....

Thanks. No you're right, the colors are pretty different. Tang says the whole 1935r. Off hand, do you know if Iz. made any hexes that year?

picked up another 91/30 today, a 1943 tula! its the same year as my izhevsk, and my first tula so im pretty pumped.....its in rough shape but the trigger is crisp! i cant wait to put a few rounds through it! i'll throw some pics up as soon as i find my camera!

Just completed the deal for this one recently. J. P. Sauer in 12x12x38-55. The metal should clean up with a lot of slow work with some bronze wool. This will be my second Drilling and I'm really excited for it to come in. I had to sell a rifle to get it but I think it fits my collection a bit better and I love to go hunting with them.

I don't own a drilling, but i find them facinating!

Another 1943 dated Izhevsk ex-sniper for me. Has scope numbers on it too, unlike my other one.

Cheers.

Nice one Jim. Is that the one with the Khyber Pass fluid steel?

 

[Carcano]

Today, a package arrived, inside a well-conserved Italian Breda M 37 machine gun ammunition can, with 11 feeding strips and 18 deactivated 8x59 RB cartridges. Nice addition to the Carcanos.

The Kyber pass copies say, Fluid Steel Krapp Lessen.

Yes sir they made some hex's that year as well.

I saw a 1938 91/30 at my local Big 5 but I have other projects underway. The M1 carbines they were advertising at a "bargain" price of $600 were all sold by lunchtime.

It seems that many in Nevada were busy buying guns. The wait for NICS checks varied from 15 minutes to two hours according to the guy at the counter.

 

[Alpenflage]

A near mint 1942 Long Branch with NewZeland markings, mint bore, no import marks that I've found yet, with a marked 1942 sling, and surprise, surrise, a metal oiler in the butt marked EFD, not one of the dozens of other producers of these. Passed on a Siamese 1907 bayonet, which I'll probably reget. Saw a 91/30 repro sniper for 400.00, lots of Swiss long K-11's, at least 4 of them.

How much were they wanting for the Swiss 1911's? IO recent imports?
