Title: All matching $59 t53 u fix em I brought back from the dead!
Post by: Adam7 on September 14, 2014, 09:53:08 AM
I bought this along with a slew of other t53's from century last year.  They were $59 with free shipping.  Not bad!

Well this one I spent a little time on the stock as all of these usually have horrible beaver chewed wood.  It came out great.

Shoots about.. Umm.. 12moa i think.. LOL

Bolt is the only thing that doesn't match as it's a Russian bolt. A real pile of junk, but kinda cool. Nothing like yours!

Thanks!  I have 1 other I'll take pics of later that I really like.  It has a tiger striped pattern in the grain.  I haven't touched that stock and it's almost mint.  Really lucky score.

Wow, both are great looking rifles! This is the Chinese version of the Russian M-44 right?. Do they fire the same ammo?
