  1. Mike, that guy no longer has anything listed...did he sell them all?! I did find the closed auction for the one with the bent rails...OMG! Bert, those look possible. If I don't get that VZ24 I just made on offer on (yeah, another one...), I may try to score a couple of those. Which one would be better, if you were gonna use it, the argie or the brazillian (that chinese stuff scares me...). John Edited for stupidity...
  2. Now wait a minute! Part of why I want some is to practice polishing! You guys gonna make my life tough! Donmarkey, holding two pieces of smoking slag; "You think that ruined it?" KAR98K "Naw dude, that'll buff right out..." Seriously, why anyone would want to sporterize some of the stuff I've seen for sale just since I started looking last year confuses me... I keep finding what seem like good deals to me on partially or fully sported mausers ($300 range), and just have to walk away, 'cause I keep hearing my wife say "how many do you need?!", and I know next month I'll find another calling my name. Don, I'm in alaska (I thought it was in my profile, but I'll go look now). My FFL guy would receive anything I wanted sent to him, but like I said, he's not going shopping for me, and I can't see anyones stuff other than SARCO without an FFL. It's a generous offer, and I may take you up on it. Sonic...I don't want a C&R, it's not supposed to work for actions or sporterized guns, which is what I'm interested in. I don't wanna hack something decent and original. If it's already been messed with, sure, but then it's not C&R...just my opinion. Thanks, guys, John
  3. Who was it that was looking for some? I can't find the post. Was that on another board? Oh well... I don't have a C&R, and anyway, I don't want to buy whole rifles, just interested in sporterized mausers right now. But, my FFL guy doesn't mess with Sarco, and I'm not sure if he'd mess with anyone else, besides which I can't even find most of those guys inventory without an FFL on file. I just want a few junkers to mess with, and maybe a barrel or two...any ideas? thanks, John
  4. Yeah...tempting...so close, but not quite. Any hints on what length to go on the 6.5x57? I'm still thinking scout style on this one, just to see if I like it. John
  5. There's a barrel on one of the auction sites...6.5x57, but it's only 20" long...now I was gonna go short on this one (yugo m24/45), somewhere 21" range anyway, but am I wasting the potential of this cartridge, and will I get a weird ballance on the finished rifle? Thanks, John
  6. Ok, I saw that too...really, there's no rescuing that, is there?

    Voere Mauser

    Yep, Cougar Voere. Interesting on the name. My bro.-in-laws .300 had a broken stock too. He spliced and patched it himself with more attention to utility than beauty, so now it's kinda ugly. The 7mm is pretty nice, though those '70's era stocks don't appeal to me. Shoulda taken pic's, I guess, but it looks just like z1r's. John

    Voere Mauser

    DUDE! I just bought one of those...it's a cougar, isn't it? Mines 7mm rem mag. Gonna give it to my bro. in law so he can build a 458 win mag. He already has one in 300 win mag. He'll be the only guy i know of with two of these...and I never heard of them before he got his. Now I gotta find an action to build MY 458 on...(couldn't let him have one without having my own too...). John
