MAS 49/56 arrived

Looks new, it's not as fugly as I thought.
Came from SOG, wood is excellent, metal is 99%.
The action is a little stiff.

BTW, UPS also left a note for a missed delivery. I'm pretty
sure it is the CZ-50 from Century. I've already called UPS
and advised I will pick up tomorrow.

If I get lucky, the laminated Ruskie M44 may also come in tomorrow(Friday).

I'll post pics as soon as I can.

Happy days are here!

Welcome to the Wonderful World of French Firearms. Check the receiver for rearsenal dates. They are little rectangular boxes with a "PXX" in them. A rearsenal in 1970 would be P70, 1965 would be P65 and so on. Pics please.

SOG also has new production ammo for the same price as the French surplus, $8.95 per 20. Plus shipping makes it the same as WGA's stuff.

BTW, the actions are designed stiff on these. They are heavy duty for sure.
