Yeah, that's what the Limbsaver is on mine. That smokepole kicks like a mule, particularly with the heavy grain weight HP & SP ammo that I've had to shoot through it. Some of the old ball ammo is lighter but the range I frequent doesn't allow FMJ rifle ammo.

I don't know about the Fin re-arsenal (aka. 'captured') Russian Nagants, but the Finnish made Nagants (eg. those made byTikka) are better machined and finished.

I just got back from ordering the only thing I've ever heard my FIL say he actually WANTED. He's one of those people you have no idea what to buy because they HAVE everything...and he has more guns than anyone I know.





Ruger Single Six in .17 HMR

I'm not much into revolvers....ESPECIALLY SAO, but his mouth was watering when he was holding the 2009 gun annual at Thanksgiving and telling me about it

How could I NOT get it for him for Christmas??

Those are sweet, Troy!
I'd prefer .22LR/.22 Mag, but still...
