With the TH model, it is ergonomic and has a finger hole. The stock can be made of black or camouflage plastic or walnut. It is believed that this form is most convenient for shooting.
The rifle is disassembled. To do this, you need to know the algorithm of actions and follow a few simple rules:
- unscrew 5 screws securing the bed and disconnect the last;

- remove the fuse spring;
- push the axis of the sear;
- remove the back pin;
