Ok. Live and learn. I moved them to a sub folder and broke the links. Sorry. :oops: I do apologize, I thought I was overloading my library. Here they are again. :thumbsup:

Congratulations! You have one. I only found one after 15 months of looking. Just perusing through Cabelas stock when I was in the neighborhood. There are three of them in Nebraska.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

This is an early video, and the quality is not HD yet, plus youtube did something to it that makes the picture a little weird.

Nice DDR :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Even though I am a red rifle guy, I would have passed on that one too.

The Molot thing... Not the place for a discussion on it. I do know that I sold a MO-38 to one of our members which was a DDR and we both love the rifle. Course at the time I hadn't realized it was a DDR :D Nobody could convince he or I that this is not a real M-38.

Anyway, if you don't warm up to it, I'll take it off your hands :lol:
