I love the smell of cosmoline in the morning...

My wife hates cosmoline. She hates the smell and thinks it looks like ear wax. When I clean really gunked up Soviet rifles and get some on my hands, I chase her around the house. Love cosmoline, personally

I always ask my wife to smell my finger when I get a new commie rifle.

What are you talking about?... both Hamilton stores sell them before the guns are gone! Trust me, I've "had my name on one" several times only to never receive a phone call... I suspect staff are hogging them. I would love to own one to store my collection.

I haven't been to Als in a long while it would seem the situation has changed.

I think Izhevsk only made SKS's in '53 and '54.

A buddy of mine works in a local shop. He picked out a nice 1954 Izzy for me when they opened a new crate. All the metal looks original and matching, but it sports a laminate stock. It only has the matching S/N on it, no ######xx overstamps.

Ah, my mistake. Not much of a morning person :p
A '53 or a 54' Izzy would be very, very nice to own.

I want to meet this friend of yours, EL34/6L6, and not the gentlemen buying them for quick profit.
