I've got to say I never thought it'd be shootable. I'm happy I was wrong.

Soviet weapons are designed to be reliable above else after all...

It wasn't really shootable as is. The fcg and magazine assembly were too far gone. But he did get it operational somewhat.

Yup, fairly careful and systematic approach to firing that relic.

I gotta say, I'm impressed.

I'm also curious. He found a firearm in a river.
Said firearm is now operational. I wonder what the legal ramifications, if any, are in regards to possession of this gun.

You'd be surprised how many hunters throughout the country find firearms and parts in the woods.
