That very one.
"I'm just not very impressed with the PSL-type rifles, as opposed to the SVT-40 "
Myeah ... not very familiar with that one, all I know is that it's an earlier model, some ww2 stuff. It may be true what you say, that it outperforms the Druganov types, in history some earlier versions of a weapon were preferred over the modern ones.
Like Dan said ... back to pipe talk, I do enjoy a pipe during my hunts - doesn't work that well for still hunting, but early on before the chase starts doesn't scare the game, early in the morning. Although ... I sport a .30-06 caliber, browning, with a Henzolt military scope (I far more like German over Russian or Romanian).
