So, when it came, the front sight and the cleaning rod where missing. On top of the hex receiver there was a rail mounted to carry a red dot.
I just replaced the front sight and I am still looking for a cleaning rod. But this is just a matter of time.
The gun itself was imported by the german comany HEGE in 1976. They added their stamp - ORION
I have two numbers on that gun. Original number was 3xxxx8 and the new one, left side of the hex, has changed to 5xxxx8. The "x"part stayed correct.
Maybe just a mistake by the gunsmith. Nevertheless it is now the number in the documents
What I learned about this gun:
- It is a 1932 TULA.
- It has the K and n in circle
- additional the o in circle and an A
- some TULA stars
- barrelbands are not matching each other
Have a look and tell me what aou tink. Is ist just a "Frankengun", good enough for shooting, or is it, with a little bit of taking care, a solid base for completing it again
