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.

What year is that m44?... if it's WWII-era, then it's likely that "Vlad" was a Russian soldier. 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.

SwedeSteve · 03-18-2008, 08:52 AM

I love it when you find stuff like that! All the gun store owners know I am the guy that comes in and pours over the milsurps. They all think I'm crazy!

Geo M44 · 03-21-2008, 02:06 PM

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?...
