Just the one gun? Then for me that is easy my 1960s Baikal non ejector under and over, the one I put a little effort in to its looks, and all my upmarket offerings though nice to look at guns would not stay the course. My reasoning is quite simple the gun is built like the proverbial brick outhouse with no complications, and as usual for Russian guns of the time barrel material is second to none. And finally, if the cartridge where to run out it would make a fine club for self defence, seriously these guns are so heavily built other than being run over by a truck it should see the next Millennium out if just given a couple of drops of oil every fifty years.



No finesse just built to put up with whatever it is given to do.


The only lessons in my life I truly did learn from where the ones I paid for!
