Great finish and very complete. Looks like a fine rifle - thanks for posting!

Looks nice,

Is the missing end of the piston (op rod), a part of the deactivation process?

Are the op rod and bolt welded together?

On these it often is, but I prefer a real uncut receiver with cut bolt faces and drilled barrels to a weld-destroyed mess like we have on this side of the pond. This looks like a cock and click demil - is that correct?

Something has been done to the barrel as well.....The pin's placement has been sloppily peened into place.....The 'X' on the side of the receiver indicates Russian rework....Bodes

Hi pit
Don't know what bit is missing but probably it could be part of deactivation.
Yes the op rod and bolt are welded together.

The barrel as a channel cut into underside of it which is hidden by the hand heat shield and it is pinned. Think many of these guns were used after war and possibly still being used. Mine has some nice WaA marks so all in all im happy this my beauty.
