@ElminsterD @uncledoomer I'm ready!

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@warrioraspie @iamnobody1961 I've got one; don't need any more. That's actually a good deal, as it is the specific FR-F1 scope pattern (-03) and mount, which are very rare.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@Godpikachusan @YouTube I post every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (and sometimes also Saturday).

@MHASWaize It's the opposite of blasphemy, it's a return to a true caliber - not 6.5 Creedmoor ;)

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

Since 6.5mm is all the range these days...

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@SealantsLabLead Yeah, they made 8 in all.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@GGG167442 The action is a Chinese-made copy of the Gewehr 88 (Hanyang), and the stock looks a bit like a Mosin stock. Definitely not a Western factory rifle.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@QuijoteMike Yes, of course - plus two different reproductions.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@BohackRich @Mrgunsngear That is not true. The antique date is fixed at 1898. Guns become C&Rs automatically at 50 years, though.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@Mrgunsngear If you go to the published C&R list you will find an entire section of these. It's how things like C96 Mausers with original shoulder stocks are not SBRs.

@Bmed141 That article does not reference Mali.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

Does anyone happen to know of any reputable references regarding Mali's purchase of AK-103 rifles circa 2017?

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@Bmed141 Where are you seeing info on a 2012 purchase?

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@Bacchus_Plays Thanks! Definitely Russian production though, and not Saudi.

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@Noldorin_King Thanks! That's better than nothing...

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@mustafa__jones Yes (not in the US).

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

@camsticky Yeah, I saw that - I'm looking for something on official purchases.

@Gokudera223 Nothing better than Frankfurt to made Charles de Gaulle look like a smooth and efficient operation!

[Forgotten Weapons @ForgotWeapons]

German airports have this amazingly efficient system where they park the airplanes out in a field and then use a pile of shuttle busses to move passengers to and from them. So much better than having planes pull up to actual gates you can walk to.
