Ah, my good ole' 74. This is what I was told to be an early ORF build on an ITM receiver using a all matching Bulgarian kit. I've put countless rounds through this rifle and can't say too much bad about it. it was a gift from a friend whom sold me his Lancaster 74, that eventually decided to blow itself apart, so this gem of a rifle was it's replacement. I remember first getting it, as my buddy reached into the icy depths of his gun room and brought our a dirty old and upon opening it a what could best be described as a chia pet of steel and rust came out. He cleaned it with windex after shooting some 7n6 and packed it away.. I had to kick start the thing open and after a few days, several cans of PB Blaster and grease, this is what emerged. Only issue I've had with it thus far is the latch for the stock broke, but other than that she's a burner for sure.

Very nice. I'm looking for a good builder to build my 74 right now, so I'm hoping mine looks as good as yours when it's done.
