I am a little confused as well with jleiper referring to the fact that it is a Second Model, but for a different reason? What I see is a First Model Russian or Old Old Model Russian. Since we are looking at a Russian Contract gun, it is not an American so I don't think it would have a 2nd Model designation?? It does display some of the characteristics of a 2nd Model American, but I thought all Russian contract guns were either 1st (rechambered Americans), 2nd or 3rd Models with considerably altered frame and trigger guard.
