oilstain 1 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 Found this little silver bottle in the box along with the standard black plastic oil bottle. Picked it up today, from LGS (vintage 09 somehow) Just thought it was weird as I've seen lots of pics of the little plastic bottle, but not the silver one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lbsrdi 1,078 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 I've not seen one, pretty cool. Be sure the lid fits tight or you may get an 'oilstain'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
echoside190 127 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) It's an older style of oil bottle that would be issued with a rifle, they come with older combloc weapons like Nagants and SKS's, made before the tech to mold plastic bottles was widely available. They're neat little collectors items to go with older style rifles. Here's a few different styles, the double spout types came with Mosins primarily, single spouts like that one with older AK and SKS. Not sure where the square oil containers originated.

Koljec 37 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) I've seen a bottle like one of those as part of the cleaning kit for a Margolin pistol. Edited December 20, 2011 by Koljec Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Caged_Bird 474 Posted December 20, 2011 Report Share Posted December 20, 2011 (edited) That looks like the one I got with my SKS Paratrooper. Mine was made in 1964 if that gives you any kind of decent time-frame. Edited December 20, 2011 by Caged Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PA Shooter 7 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 Mine came with that same black bottle, and a cleaning kit as well... Must be new stuff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
oilstain 1 Posted December 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 Nothing to do with the little weird bottle, but the gun ran PERFECTLY today with slugs at the indoor range. I shot 38 slugs with no probs, and the guy in the next lane from me shot two before complaining about his shoulder :-) Have to say, if you are anti-social, this is a terrible shotgun to own. Everyone is interested! I would love to find somewhere to try to shoot birdshot (or even buck) in MD and see how other rounds cycle. >happy camper< Quote Link to post Share on other sites
