Type 53's

My T53 looks great after the rejuvenation, but shoots like crap. I got a sewer pipe bore and a worn out muzzle.
My cheap AIM Russian M44 from Albania though shoots like a dream and was close to the same price but that was a ship that was in port for only a week. lucky I got one.

I've never shot my Albanian M44 that you convinced me to buy. I've been trying to sell it for over a month, with only one taker who welched. Maybe I'll just keep it and have fun with it.

One of my had a bad crown. I cut a new crown with a tool I bought and it shot even better than the one I kept. I kept the one with the Albanian Trench art, not the better shooter.

You guys have no sense of humor. It was a trash gun with rotten bore and stock that had seen better days. As u can see by the pics of my other one that cleaned up very nicely.

Maybe ... maybe not. If you post a photo here of a C&R gun that's been Bubba'ed up for any reason, you can expect to get a ration of "stuff" about it. We don't do it to be mean-spirited, but only to try to nudge people toward keeping C&R firearms original.

YOU know what you started with, but some other guy may come into the forum, see your photos, and think that's what we're all about. The next thing you know, Grandpa's WWII bring-back early SS marked Mauser is suddenly painted up in camo.

They weren't issued that way?
