The Finn M91's were selling for even less than that Bill, back when they first came in some 20 years ago. Now I see them hitting $500 sometimes on GB, I should have bought crates of them.
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.

Just for you Drew. :thumbsup:
I missed some pictures of the trigger and the interupter area. Just caked with cosmo. I have started to clean it in that area but the bottom is very clean surprisingly. The stock is in good condition also. Soon on to the barrel. :D

That is grease, not cosmoline, cosmoline is our way of preserving parts and weapons, that shit is how the commies did it. Some mess to clean up, but at least the rifle was protected, happy scrubbing :)

You see in this world there are two kinds of people my friend, those with loaded guns... and those who dig. You dig.
