Help with Tula Markings.

Any Russian gun experts out there able to make sense of the markings on my shotgun?

As noted in a previous threats, its a TOZ 66. They were made from 1968-74. My google fun is failing me...wonder if any of these marks could pin point the age.

Good thing you have a shotgun, seeing as how you had previous threats.


I can't offer up any info, but I'd imagine likely late '68 to mid '69 by the 4 digit serial number...
