I missed your post on "What's your favorite gun?" When did you post it and what title did you post it under? I recently turned into a Mauser collector. Three Yugoslavians and one Turkish. Kick like hell, but cheap shooting entertainment.
Terry, I haven't figgerd out how to link from archives so I bumped the thread.
The Mausers I work with are of "action grade", those with no collector value, usualy with cracked stocks and missing parts and mismatched bolts, sutable for building sporting rifles out of.
As a side note, you should watch out for some of the Turk's, in particular the 03/38's, have seen receiver lug set-back of as much as .023 inch in ALL of them that I have purchased.
