Hello,
I am a new member here and just wanted to say hello. I collect World War 2 guns mostly.
Now, my questions........
I recently got a repro mount and original scope (1941 date) for my Svt-40 (1941 Tula, no import marks,non match parts and bolt in the white). The receiver is grooved but not cut (notched) on the back to hold the cross lock pin on the mount. I want to notch the receiver but have a few questions....
Does anyone have an original notched receiver or pics of one?
Has anyone notched their receiver, either milled or filed?
The only picture I have seen of the "scope notch" is in Hitlers Garands....any other info out there on SVT-40's (perhaps a book?)?
Any and all replies will be very helpful, Thanks
