Wife freaked? A day or two later, start offering helpful opinions on her shampoo, makeup, etc. She’s gonna tell you have no idea what you’re talking about.
Then.... bada bing*. . You got her.

It can ship to your house, but someone (adult) will probably need to be there to sign for it.

Oh noooooo..... no 2×4 beatdown. That’s a rare soft receiver with locking lug setback. Get another one.

It probably is a war relic. These rifles were refurbished after the war and stored for WWIII. Many of them restored to like new condition. Unless it was manufactured after the war it may well have seen action.

"Thanks guys, I’ll check these out. I assume I’ll have to have the ammo sent to a gun dealer?"
Southern Ohio Gun will sell for 22 cents a round in quantity. Don't know about the shipping. Where you can ship it depends on the state. Some states will all direct shipment to private residences.

With all the bullshit going on with ATF and .223, I would suggest that if you buy something you KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT!! about what, when, and where!

I assume I’ll have to have the ammo sent to a gun dealer? Not in CA, at least. However, unrelated to that, be aware that most military surplus ammo is corrosive.

It’s the thick laquer on the older surplus. First 5 rounds are OK, but once the chamber heats up, the round sticks in the chamber. Stay away from older laquered ammo from the ‘50’s, stick with ‘70’s Russian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Hungarian. Aimsurplus is a good source.
The Yugoslavian is brass cased and the best, but it dried up years ago.

Boil it in Borscht.
Feed resulting mixture to other ranks, or use to treat hooves of cavalry remounts. BTW, could be a winnah, but they kick like mules.

Yep, very important point. Rifle must be thoroughly cleaned ASAP after using corrosive surplus. It’s fine to shoot and if you clean it correctly it will not damage the gun.

I’ve heard bad things about the Chinese models. That’s why I wanted to go Russian.

When I see happy, excited people posting photos of their new gun purchases on Facebook I think “You idiots!”

I have owned several Russian made ones too. Some with the round receiver and some with the hexagonal one. The Chinese ones appeared to be as well made but then I never did have the locked bolt problem with the Russian ones.
I will say that I have read reports of the Russian ones doing it too. Even have read that the Russians did just beat them open.
