Like I said, Kim says they're in poor condition. On the plus side they're supposed to have bolts. In parts alone, they're worth the price IMO. At $14.87 a pop you'll need to order at least 5 and something else to meet your $75 minimum. I'd say chances are pretty good you'll get at least one good rifle out of the lot, perhaps all 5 if you're as lucky as me;) . I'm awfully tempted to order a handfull, but I'm so way over budget on purchases lately it isn't funny. Those 2 CMP Garands and the additional Imbel kit simply nuked my wallet. I don't want to even consider opening it up again for fear of massive fallout.................







.....................What time does Century open up in the morning?

So are these Mausers or Mannlicher carbines/rifles?

I'm assuming they are 7mm small ring Mausers. But I seem to recall reading once they had some of those Mannlichers in Chile too.

No, my wife screwed up on her W-4 and claimed herself and me as dependents when we usually claim "0". We'll see, some creative accounting may have to come into play. Hmmm, deduct cost of fired ammo as hobby expense....;)

Guns are dependents. They depend on me to feed them, wash them, care for them, adore them, give them lots of love, etc etc etc...

:D

I hate APRIL!!!
