My first double date.

[tmncali]

Just thought I'd share what I bought @ Big 5 yesterday. It is my first MO, so
I was kinda excited!!!

Can't wait for the Monte Carlo stock and scope mount to arrive.

















J/K about the stock and scope.

Oh man....I thought I was going to see you and your bud, some C&R's, and your "dates" showing off the C&R's in action...

If you only got one vintovka, how does that make it a double date?

Color me confused...

I passed on an MO double date Tula about a year ago at Big 5. I was saving up for a PU sniper. I got the PU but regret not getting that MO!!! Nice score.

Its just a Ministry of defense mark. Its stamped when they are acquired for use

Although, according the experts on gunboards, they there are backpedaling & saying that the whole 'minstry of defense' connection was never proven or even substantiated in any significant way... Which kinna makes sense if you observe the evidence (i.e. "MO" marks on guns with dates before the ministry of defense was even 'created' [named "Ministerstvo Oborony"] in 1953).
