2nd Attempt On Trump

[SomeJackleg]

Only picture I could find of the rifle was a piss-poor one. Can't tell much about it, and it looks like it might have been doctored by someone - there is a white line going up the center of it, right at the base of the magazine, and the illumination/contrast on either side of the line looks different.

With that said, what I could get out of that picture wasn't much, and it's not very reliable. It's the damndest AK I've ever seen. From the receiver forward, it looks like an SVD Dragunov clone. Forearm, barrel, gas tube, and gas block looks just like a Dragunov.

yeah it's kinda funny looking, and i think you maybe right about being a dragunov clone. there is a clone made for hunting that has traditional furniture / stock by a russian manufacturer. and supposedly this routh guy was in ukraine at the start of the war, so maybe he was able to bring one home with him, although i don't know how he could get it through customs, and wondering if you could find one on any of the arm list sites   

one other thing im wondering i know they list 20 and 30 rd mags for the dragunov, but they seem to be scarce as hens teeth, and the one in the picture mag doesn't look to be big enough for  the 7.62x54, .308 7.62x51, or the 9.3x64 that the tiger is chamber for.

wondering if it could be a ak 47 / 74 20" long barrel variant? i know Saiga made / makes a  sporter without a pistol grip. not sure if they made/ make one with a 20 " barrel







link is in russian will have to translate, site didn't trigger anti v or ad blockers so i can't say for sure it's safe.
