Welcome to the Jungle..
« on: June 11, 2016, 12:20:07 PM »
Carbine that is... haha

Picked up this no5 mk1 but it's far from being all original.

The rear sight was missing but I found one at a gun show.Also the bayonet lug has been ground off and someone drilled and tapped it for a scope.But it still a pretty good shooter at just over 2" at 100 yards.

These carbines in all original and numbers matching condition run from $700 and up for a good one.I traded a case of SKS ammo( that I bought on sale years ago) for it so I'm very happy with the deal.  ;)

Nice score!  I bought mine for 80 bucks I got from a summer job.  I still have uncles asking about it, and what I'd sell it for.  Bonus that that one shoots!
