I guess my first two centerfire rifles are my favorites although it's kinda hard to pick one over the other as they all have some significances related to there country of origin and the year they were made. A couple like my Yugo and Russian M44 I have no idea who had there hands on these rifles or if the individual could have used them in war time.
1970 all original parts refurbished Yugo SKS with ported grenade launcher with Phosphorous flip up night sights. I believe this rifle hand a new barrel installed when it was refurbish as it was in mint condition. The stock shows the typical signs of sanding which is common on the refurbished rifles.
My Sav. 99 in 300 Sav. I've had this rifle since around 1980 it probably has less than 300 rds. through it and three quarters of those have been cast lead. The original owner only shot a couple boxes of factory ammo an had lost the original front and rear sights,although I have search all over I can't seem to find any replacements so I'm regulated to using a scope. The original finish was scratched up pretty badly so I removed it and refinished it myself.
