BTW, how does this muzzle brake differ from later models?

I think he means six slot instead of later two.

Thanks!

Just got back from the range and have cleaned the weapon.

BOY HOWDY!! , it's no wonder why the Germans and the Finns liked these so much. It's extremely accurate and ate everything I fed it. Windage and elevation were spot on and I didn't have to change a thing.

I'm quite impressed!

Not true. I have a vet bringback example that is a mismatch. Russian rifle captured by an American soldier from a German soldier in France.

NOT ALL FINNISH CAPTURED RIFLES WERE SA MARKED. YES, THAT IS TRUE. If you don't have capture papers or some other 100 % way to prove it is a capture...........then the buyer will say prove it when and IF you sell it for a higher dollar amount as a unaltered "capture"

I'm wondering if my SVT 40 at http://imgur.com/a/5dof2 is also a Finnish Capture without the SA marking.

If anyone knows how to get the excess glue from the crack "repair" off of the stock without damaging it, please let me know.

It looks like an honest combat veteran and I am sure it is a matching bring back.
