They are mostly curiosity's, obsolete from the day the first one rolled off the line. I've shot mine about a hundred times ,( two boxes of ammo ), cleaned it and put it up. They have two attractions, they are a example of Russian guns used in two wars, and very cheaply priced. There are those who collect the different dates and marking, but hey, people will collect anything, some people are even turned by shoes in the Sears catalog.
