Any difference between '93 and '94 production Tiger SVD's?
Author: Cooper1911	October 2, 1999 at 22:52:54

I went to my local guns shop today and he has two Russian
Tiger carbines in stock.I don't know a lot about SVD's and
would like some help picking one out. The first one is a
1993 production with black plastic handgaurds, PSO-1 scope
and comes with two 10 round mags. The second is a 1994
production with wood handgaurds and PSO-1 scope and two 5
round mags and a 880 round case of ammo. Both rifles come
with small accesories and both are mint/unfired without
boxes. Was there a quality difference between the two years
of production? I have heard the the earlier Tiger had cut
down SVD barrels, while the later ones had SVDS
barrels.There is no a big price difference between the two,
the '93 is $1900 and the '94 is $2000. Thanks in advance
for any help.
