It would have been fun build and a sweet rifle.
I hear you.
I've wanted to bring my K-31 to "match" condition, but the cost of the diopter and muzzle break are beyond my paygrade.
You married guys crack me up. They'll never be cheaper than they are right now, so pull the trigger. Or blow on the trigger if you like 'em set light.

It was just sitting there looking sad...it is mechanically strong, just cosmetically challenged. It will be a nice shooter with a little TLC

Tomorrow morning I'm going shooting with my old partner from the Sheriff's SAR posse.
Do I take the .38, the .45, or the .22?

I don't think I've ever been to a range with just one.

I'm really hung-up on rimfire stuff lately - .22lr, & .17hmr.
