Picked up a PSL

[HalfaLehman]

I've been wanting to pick up one of these for a while now so I finally broke down and bought one. I have heard these are hit and miss but this one seems to be one of the good ones.







Sometimes I like to pretend it is a kick ass soviet battle rifle!








The bolt hold open is a nice addition to the AK platform.


The twins.


Haven't had a chance to shoot it at ranges over 25 yards or so but that will change this coming weekend.

Looks very nice, dont forget the range report once you get it accomplished..As for the hit or miss not sure about that, Have not heard much about them, But someone on this forum is bound to give you an answer..lol

I love mine. Make sure you don't feed it heavy ball. Anything over 150gr is a no-no.

You found one with a bayonet lug? Who's the importer/kit builder of your PSL? Also, how much did you pay? Beautiful rifle, I'd love to get one. Congrats!

No worries I have lots and lots of Czech 147gr to feed it.

Its a Century, picked it up for 800 from eagle arms at the sar show in york on friday.

Dont forget - only lightball ammo is recommended on those PSL.
not heavy 180gr.

Just curious, how much did it cost you?

I got one about 2 month ago also. Haven't had a chance to shot it yet, but I am sure it will be a lot of fun.

It's the SVD's that have issues since it's a sniping rifle. Supposely the shift of balance during a long stroke piston movement can degrade the accuracy.

Nice PSL though, it's on my list to have as well.

Doesn't degrade accuracy any more than having to cycle a bolt.

Don't forget to check out ebay or Kalikas optics for a 8x42 add on..
