SVT40

[Crochet556]

Picked up this piece last week. Rifle, 3 magazines. Cool gun, in great condition, with lots of history… Was
manufactured at the Tula factory sometime in ‘41. Believe it is either a GI bring back, or a Finn Capture that didn’t receive an “SA” stamp. Non-import marked. Mismatched numbers. There is one letter/number sequence on the stock I can’t make out. Anything else I’m missing? What are these worth?

If it kicks hard enough you can’t feel anything anymore therefore yes…better than Garand lolol

That being said these can be tuned quite well on the gas settings to allow for a very pleasant shooting experience most are over gassed so tweak that gas key to adjust
