Nice Rifle. I'd be careful as the Russian Cosmoline may have radioactivity in it. :alien: Nahh it's probably just ear wax. :cyclops:

That bayonet could come in handy to repel stuella or even the ex. :joker:

I dis-assembled the gun piece by piece and cleaned each part ,,i Heard of putting the gun in a large garbage bag and putting in a hot attic and let the heat melt the Cosmo,,but I,d have to wait till July, this is Minnesota,,,I don,t hunt anymore,,too lazy,,I,ve got some other firearms that I take to the range on occasion to keep in practice,,just in case I ever have to make use of my Conceal Carry License

I helped clean a M-1 carbine once. With 2 of us and a few beers it took awhile to get it out of every nook and crevice. I don't know I was very drunk at the time.
