Also Hatter, is that a Saiga Ak-74 conversion? Looks great! Sucks about the import ban. I don't even know when the last time AKs were legal in Canada.

Yeah, it's a Saiga conversion. Unfortunately, as you can see, it's not complete, and I do plan on dropping another $300 on parts to convert it to the full AK configuration, which means getting new furniture, new FSB and compensator, new gas tube, and maybe even a new gas block, since I'll probably end up ruining the current one in the conversion process.

But yeah, it is a great rifle. Unfortunately, I got kinda screwed on the accuracy, and can't seem to get better than 4 MOA whenever I shoot it, but maybe that's just me. Maybe having the scope will give me a better idea of what's going on.

I have a 1938 Mosin-Nagant as well, which I have recently done a thorough cleaning of to get all the damn cosmoline out. I do love the Mosin, even if it's recoil is a bit unforgiving. I've heard that doing something with the stock can help with that, but I haven't tried it yet. Speaking of stock, there's a nasty crack splitting the stock from the lower screw in my Mosin. Not sure what exactly caused it, but it doesn't seem too severe. I'll leave it be as long as it doesn't decide to splinter off completely. If that does happen, I may invest in an Archangel stock for it. I hate the idea of sporterizing it, but I can't help if the stock I have breaks.

Also, I'll add that you Canadians are lucky on one thing. The T97 NSR. Looks like a beautiful carbine, only problem is that you'll never find one in the US, since we have a bit of a ban on many guns manufactured by Norinco.
