My dad was an AN (aviation nose picker as he called it) during Korea. He served on the USS Philippine Sea and the USS Enterprise. He never talks about it much, I suppose it's because he served on a carrier fixing shot up airplanes. I sometimes wonder just what he saw....

It was sad seeing her start to be decommissioned but, it was time.
Can't wait to see the next Enterprise, CNV-80, be built.

Bought two new ones today at an auction.
Savage Arms 311A Side x Side 12 Ga Shotgun (going to my son for the skeet range) Norinco SKS paratrooper model. I still need to get an original magazine for it. I call it "cheap heat". Looks like I need another safe now.

Savage double barrel:Need a firing pin replacement and a little adjustment to the selector. My kid had it stripped within a 1/2hr of getting it home. I had to make a screwdriver long enough to get the stock off.
The SKS stock is beat but the mechanics and barrel are clean. He stripped that down and cleaned out the old factory grease. Piston was nearly perfect. all numbers match.

I am going to look around for some metal ones at the gun show too. I don't need any hi capacity ones. we will make sure it shoots well, fix a crack in the wood , get all the surface rust gone. Not sure if we will reblue it yet or not. It is there to give the kid experience and then we will flip it.

I got a deal on mine, it's a Chinese (I think) one with a Dragonov polymer stock and scope. I got the original wooden stock with it, but had to buy my own mags. Only reason I got it was because I didn't have anything chambered in 7.62 x 39....

We have a Chinese norinco. chrome lined barrel is nice.
There is another police auction coming up with more and the pictures show the savages cut off/down the wooden stocks. Let me know if you want to sell the wooden stock you have. We are looking for the bayonet too.
