Yes, thanks Rex. It is a PSL/FPK/SSG-97/ROMAK-3 rifle. Many people mistakenly call it a Dragunov, the Russian sniper rifle it shares some physical characteristics with but no working parts. It is basically large AK that shoots 7.62X54R. The receiver I have read shares a lot with the RPK, as mentioned, the AK light machine gun. This one specifically is designated PSL-54C, imported by Century Arms and built by "Arms Arsenal" in Cugir, Romania. The scope is a Romanian copy of a Russian PSO scope. The LPS 4x6┬░ TIP2 is essentially a PSO scope without the battery powered lighted reticle. The reticle at one point was illuminated with radioactive tritium. This however has expired and from what I have read cannot be replaced without tearing the scope completely apart.

I love it! I haven't shot it yet but I can't wait. I'm going to install a real Dragunov SVD flash hider on it, refinish the stock set in a dark Cherry red, and custom fit the stock to my hand. Other then that I just plan on getting a big tin of Combloc ammo and seeing how far out I can touch someone/thing :wink:
