From Russia with love...
OK here's the skinny
PROS
comes with 2 6rd mags
shoots pretty good, I managed a few sub 3" 100m groups using the sights
takes SKS front sight posts
chrome lined bore should be great for a truck gun
handles really well
comes with some truly QD scope mounts
the express style sights work pretty good
Cons
very crude machining; compared to a wartime mosin this thing looks like Kathy Bates standing next to Ashley Judd Shocked
action was VERY stiff at first, really requiring you to get rough when ejecting and extracting
the scope rings are very crudely machined and wouldn't hold onto a 1" scope. I'll try some electrical tape between the scope and rings next time.
The trigger is horrible
I bought the rifle to shoot in our local highpower matches. So the magazine capacity sold the gun to me. Overall I'm satisfied, because it's a fun rifle to shoot and with some tinkering I think I can work out some of the problems
