Velocette Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 Once again the Baikal collection is likely to grow,,,Holts next week,,,, so space is urgently needed. Everyone knows what these are, rock solid and ultra reliable. This one has, as a bonus, the best stock I've seen with lovely colour and figuring. Its been glued and pinned in front of the top strap where they all split and hasn't moved since I did it 8 years ago. The 28" barrel is perfect inside, choked at 1/2 and full. L.O.P is aprox 14 1/4". Just the job for the skint sportsman ! Collection only please unless very near. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diver One Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 For a Baikal that stock is amazing. My IZH54 has a stock which, in Russian , is Pobbon a literal translation is Pallet wood😂 But the gun is a dream and cost a bottle of JD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pink ones were sweet to shoot but the black ... oh oh darker coloured cased ones were loaded with powder left over from anti tank gun shells. I swapped 500 black Baikal's for 500 Winchester GB's with a mate who used them in a Franchi 5 shot Hunter. He loved them. They didn't half rattle the action back and forth. Pigeons up there with the jumbo jets on oxygen were at severe risk. I couldn't use them in my 25 " sbs. there was a muzzle flash like a pink candle flame shape about 6ft long out of the muzzle. it lit the wood up as if I were taking flash photos.

There were sort of like a cross betwen a Volkswagen combi camper van and a Comma van. I think that they must still produce that van out in Russia because I saw a news clip wher2 the Russian military were using them as General rugged transport. Simple, rugged and built to last and do a job. Ugly as a pig. Sorry pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used thousands of black Baikal cartridges in the ‘70’s, nearly all through a 26 inch SxS weighing only 6lbs 6oz. The gun stood it alright, and my shoulder stood it alright. But those cartridges are almost certainly responsible for my substantial hearing loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minky Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 (edited) What's that you say? Speak up man, I can't understand a single word... We're you 6 foot 4 and full of muscle.?

The gun was a cheap Spanish L.I.G. boxlock ejector which I bought new and still have. Hearing protection was unheard of then. (See what I did there?)

Phillywilly Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Loving the Rekord cartridge banter lads, similar memories from my teenager days when I weighed 8st wet and shot my brother's gun. Fair to say I missed a few through flinching🤯 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Bought 5000 Baikal shells in the 1980s from Don Grays Chatham - free delivery on 5k. Shared with a few mates. Floodlit skeet was like a battlefield, but the skeet shells were fine on long sporting birds. Incidentally, I bought an NGK spark plug for the quad, belonging to my twin granddaughters, this week. "Made in Russia". Nothing on the packet, but stamped into the metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
