Is this Russian?

padams8888:
Wondering if anyone has seen this serial number format before? With zero else to go on, it almost looks like Izhevsk to me..? (I don't have the rifle yet)

running-man:
Yes, it most certainly looks like an Izhevsk receiver.  Interestingly enough, Tex over at gunboards hasn't noticed any of these with more than three numerals before. I haven't either (I have an example of a two digit numeral, but not a four), but I always chalked it up to a very small sample size.

Did you get the rest of that gun too, or just the barreled receiver?

Blicero:
The ninjas always get to the nice Russians. Of course.
Yep, that's a Russian and it's an Izhevsk. If you can find a gunless Izhevsk stock you'll be in business.

padams8888:
It's a complete rifle.....but it's been butchered. I believe it's been cut down to a 16 inch barrel and it's in a flippen tapco stock. I wouldn't be surprised if the receiver is the only untouched part left...... cry1

The auction had 3 pics....and that was the best one....lol. I'm hoping the cover is there.....but I'm not holding my breath.
