If you change barrel , then the bipod will go away with the barrel??

That's kinda dumb.

Unless every barrel comes with a bipod

Not really- I just watched one of the youtube links, and the bipod is removable, and can be swapped to the new barrel.

Re bipod - not having the receiver supported while swapping bls in the field doesn't look like fun.

Bipod is quick detachable. Not a factor. Hope these get here before the Czechs convert to Euro!

So what is the ammo situation for 7.62x54 like.

I feel strangely compelled to buy one of these things, simply because I think it is going to be a once in a lifetime chance to own something like this, and I am currently flush with cash.

What are ammo costs and availability.

Nice straight line recoil. I note the shooter was basically pushed straight back. The gun did not jump around on the bipod, it just slid back as he moved.

Hmmm

Cocking via the pistol grip.........

Very interesting to say the least.

It seems the 59 locks and fires in the same manner as the 58.

We have a local range that has quite a few fudds, restrictions on "appropriate" target types, etc. I'll pay the day fee just to see the looks on their faces.

Looks fun. Damn. I have my eye on a .357 mag. handgun, a .22 rifle, an SVT 40 and a Mauser Kar98K for next year.
