I've had a bug for a while wanting a PSL. I'm not enthralled that it's a sniper rifle or enhanced unit weapon or whatever it was really designed for. What I like about it is the semi auto 7.62X54. This is a particularly long and heavy weapon but there are not a lot of choices in that caliber and semi auto. So here's the question.
Does anyone own or know the quality of this weapon?

I could probably put $800.00 + a bit more in a good used Garand or something similar but I really like the 7.62X54 and there's just nothing out there in my price range that shoots it in semi auto. $2000 or $3000 for an SVT-40 is out of my price range. Well, not mine but my wife's and I have to live here.
I know there are better cartridges out there but I hate to invest in "one more caliber" when I have so much of a really good cartridge. I have a lot of it. It's cheap you know.
So what say you? Worth the money?
