uh....
What's "topic?"
I always thought each first post was the center of a circle from which all subsequent posts could radiate, connected, if only by proximity, to the orginal post.
I musta missed somethin'  |

My M44 has the name Vlad carved in the stock. He must of been some cold war era Romanian soldier who was very atached to his rifle, or some Big 5 employee has a sense of humour.

You may be holding something that kept "Vlad" alive... or was the last thing he held before he died.

That would be quite a nice decoration on a rifle! Would love to see that!
It is the history that makes Mil surplus so attractive.

MM, SOG has dropped the B barrel price $20 on the latest flyer that came with VKT. $329... Hmmm The M39 Match Target is the same price but not a C&R.
How dead will I be?...

It's a Romanian, the reciever is marked 1952. I will throw a pic up when I get a chance.
