Dr. Funk did pick up that Czech rifle we talked about a while ago. And took it out and used it! And took pictures. And posted 'em. Some people in Ottawa are probably besides themselves. One can only hope, anyway!... http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html Sat, 21 Feb 2004 11:53:25 -0600 Well, the few rounds I have are head stamped 1938. One would really expect rounds that old to have an elevated rate of failure. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2332 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2332 Sat, 21 Feb 2004 17:51:58 -0600 And what you do find isn't all that reliable, either. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2329 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2329 Sat, 21 Feb 2004 17:44:09 -0600 That is the rifle, yes. But I haven't bought it yet. Those pictures were taken in 1989, if I remember correctly. My friend and I went out shooting with it and the M22. Had a blast too. I could take some pictures of my current rifle, if you'd like. Its an old one too, the M95 Austrian cavalry carbine. Nice rifle, but hard to find ammunition for. http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2327 http://www.thedonovan.com/archives/2004/02/proof_photos_of_armed_canadians_not_in_the_service.html#comment-2327 Sat, 21 Feb 2004 17:10:12 -0600
