i always wanted a no5 but wouldn't pay £500 for a good one so i bought a mosin carbine for £100....fun to shoot and the built in pig sticker was interesting but by god it kicked like a mule on steroids...still like a no5 even now.

CZ do a rifle of the shelf in a very similar style spec called a "527" for about £600 be good in the 7.62x39 calibre with a small fixed magnification scope on top + a few spare steel mags

Used a friends Enfield jungle carbine back in the 70s , kicked like a mule, noisy as hell and really did not like changable temperatures outdoors, point of aim was all over depending on how hot or cold it was,.

yeah there not noted for there accuracy but i still like em...more as a curio than a shooter...the mosin carbine had all the same faults, deafeningly loud a muzzle flash more in keeping with a flamethrower and a really sadistic recoil incorporating a steel squared off butt plate!!!!....but i always had a queue of people wanting to fire it down the range(nobody ever came back for seconds though!)

Flamethrower Smile Smile thats very good Smile, overall the carbine I always enjoyed the most was the Ruger Mini 14, used to go varmint hunting on the Cimmeron grasslands with it, good days indeed.
