M27

Post by desdem12 »

Long awaited finn rifle. Had a good week so far. A wz29 and this finn showed up at my door. It is not the best m27 but it is my m27. :biggrin: :thumbsup:

Took her down and cleaned the bore and it is pretty worn. I was expecting it to be fairly worn but it is about gone. It is not counterbored. Was clean outside though and it is growing on me a lot already. :D

Whaddya mean not the best? What's wrong with it? Looks perfectly good to me, when I read that I expected to see something Bubba. Good find :vcool: :vcool: :vcool:

I have long chased this rifle and it is staying here. Would like the bore to be better but maybe it shoots better then it looks. Here is a comparison with the other rifle from this week. No lottery this rifle was helped out by qz and bb and a host of others. The wz29 was a find of the town for this town, and there should be an incoming m44 (non russian) to replace the one a lucky forum member got. I have had a good month thanks to Grease Monkey also. :biggrin: Happy camper. :thumbsup:

I like it! I've never seen a local m27. Congrats!

Non-updated nose cap. Original finish. Winged bolt connector. Perfect war-horse. That is the BEST kind of M27.
No words of wisdom come to mind at this time....
