    New Baikal 121 Single Shot out

    I have a fair few of the old model & like them, a lot of rifle for the money, I see guys complain on the scope mounting & the trigger, well the new ones fix that, shoot & look better even !

    Baikal site seemed to imply 308 only at this stage.

    I think I'd buy one, after all their predecessor was a bloody good rifle, not that expensive, and usually shot well.

    Yeah I had an 18MH in 243, happily did 3/4 inch groups at 100m all day long.

    Got the same in .223 & 12 gauge, awesome for $400 brand new....also break-down easily to put in pack....
    While I might not be as good as I once was, Im as good once as I ever was!

    I have two 18MH both on loan to friends and am having trouble getting them to cough them back up.
    Cheap,sturdy,shoot well and pack down.Plus if my truck shits an axle I have a couple of spares.
    The stock looks like a definite improvement on the new model.

    looks nice
    Do you really need a muzzle break on a 308 ?

    Would have thought the barrel would have been shorter on a gun like this. Personally, I can't stand the look of open sights with a suppressor (or muzzle break?). Fortunately both problems easily solved.

    Doesn't look good for us getting them just yet as seem to be only in Russian all the info, darn it !

    Here is a very good review of the 121 rifle in comparison to the IZH-18 - MP-18, unfortunately in Russian but you get the idea when he does a side by side .

    Interesting, very clever how they have altered the trigger/sear/ hammer geometry to give the "chance" of a very nice trigger

    I saw that, but I don't trust some of that stuff, on one site it said the old MP-18 were in 9.3X74 & 45/70, never did see one of them & can't see them doing a 9mm & 380 pistol rounds in one ?
