After yesterdays surprise snowstorm, today turned out sunny and clear, a perfect day to go out to the desert and exercise a couple of rifles I haven't shot since last summer.
First up was my Valmet M62/S. This is a rather rare gun here in the US as few were imported and this particular one is one of the very first to come in with early features like the bicycle grip and cheese grater handguard. While the tube stock looks awkward, it is surprisingly comfortable to shoulder.
Like all milled AK's and Valmets in particular, it cycles as smooth as buttered glass and is pretty accurate, due, no doubt, to the excellent sights. A bonus on these is that they take standard AK 7.62x39 magazines.
Rifle No2 today was my Galil. This is a build I did using a CNC Warrior receiver and nearly all NOS Galil parts including the barrel, handguard, grip, gas block, bipod, etc., including replacing the Tritium night sights.
As with the Valmet M62, this shoots very, very smooth. When You look at it you can clearly see the Valmet lineage of these fine firearms.
