Hi,
that has got to be the cleanest one i have ever seen, it must be unissued. very well done on e that, di you pay 600, pounds or euro,s for it as you have a pound sign up. thanks for showing it.

deactivated I assume?
Nice find!
No offense meant to the UK members but demilling a weapon is like gelding yourself...when you need it most it isn't there anymore!

Thanks Yes it is deactivated. The guy who sold it to me told me that is was gives to the Russian army as a part of the lend lease act. But the Russians didn't like it (or they didn't want to use US weapons) and it was therefore stored in a warehouse in Ukraine and sold off after WW2. - Or thats what he told me

hehe.
It has been deactivated by the Danish law. So, the pipe is cut lengthwise, the chambers are welded and the pin in the bolt is removed. (i cry every time i hear it, they are destroying the weapon! )

That's not bad, pretty good really. When the SHTF and law and order are non existant all you would need is a new barrel and the pin sorting out.
