Baikal MP 512M JUST GOT IT AND AM BUILDING A STOCK AN A TUNE

[howie1a]

HI I JUST GOT THE Baikal MP 512M IT'S A LITTLE CHEICY LOOKING BECAUSE OF THE STOCK BUT IT SHOOTS VERY GOOD I HAVE ONLY USED IT WITH IRON SIGHTS AND IT'S A KEEPER I DID A TUNE YOU DON'T NEED A SPRING COMPRESSER VERY EASY TO TUNE POLISHED THE SEAR AND THAT HELP[S THE TRIGGER AND POLISHED THE SPRING BUY THE WAY THEY GIVE YOU A EXTRA SPRING ABD A CLEANING ROD AS WELL AS A END FOR THE RIFLE IF YOU REMOVE THE SIGHT TO PUT ON A SCOPE NICE TRIM PIECE. THE BARREL IS OF VERY HARD STEEL  I HAVE TO DO A DROOP ADJUSTMENT AND IT IS A LOT HARDER THAN THE WINCHESTER I HAVE. IT TOOK A GOOD BELT NOT A LIGHT TAP TO MAKE ANY DIFFERENCE. I AM BUILDING A STOCK OUT OF OAK I HAPPEN TO HAVE LEFT FROM A CABINATE JOB, I'VE NEVER MADE A STOCK BUT I AM A MASTER CARPENTER AND CABINIATE MAKER AND BVUILT JUST ABOUT EVERTHING OUT OF WOOD AS WELL AS SOME BOATS. I WILL POST SOME PICTURES AS I BUILD THE STOCK. HOWIE

Looks like another talented member here..:) Congratulations on your 512 purchase Howard. Vince and you have got my attention on these little babies..:) Looking forward in seeing how your project progresses. Keep us posted with lots of pics. Does it have any droop in the barrel?

Thanks
Gene

It had some barrel droop but I removed it and that is why I feel the steel is harder when I removed droop on orther barrels it went a lot easyer than with the 512M
