Check out GB # 267432756. A 1909 Argentine action mauser sporter. This is when I wish I was rich, instead of good looking. LOL Also read why this dealer won`t take any bids from CA. folks or sell & ship anything to anybody living in CA. He speaks the truth IMO.

I`d say her hubby must of taught her well. She also had a 6 shooter.

I want to replace (weld) the bolt handle on my 03/38 turk. I know a heat sink has to inserted in the bolt. Can I use an alum rod instead of copper? I only ask because I have free access to the alum rods. Thank s in advance.

Looks like a small ring??? I have a 1903/38 & it is a large ring.

Nice shooting, fine looking rifle, & nice bird too.

Remember one thing, if you want nobama out, you have to vote for who ever is nomated for the GOP to run for Pres. even if you don`t like them.

When I refinish my stocks, I use Tung oil. When the wood won`t absurb anymore oil ( 2 coats) I put one or two more thin coats on & let dry for at least 3 days. It gets a hard glossy finish on it. Then I use steel wool 0000 to cut the gloss down & then rub it down with polish. When ever I handle my rifles or at the range, I wipe them down with one of those silicone impregnated cloths. I have to do a small repair on one of my stocks. What can I use to get the silicone off without marring the finish? Thanks in advance.

Why wouldn`t it work? I`m seen it done before & it worked perfect. Just make sure it`s a hard material you make the spacer out of.

I watched it & it was pretty interesting. Also found out FDR was a coke head & had a mistress. LOL

You have to put a spacer in between the barrel & reciever, differant thicknesses until it lines up were you want it.

I`m with you Dr Hess.

He did what he was supposed to do. God bless him & all our troops were ever they are & what ever they are doing.

Here is a pic of my 03/38 Turk, which is a fine shooter, that I sportized into a Mannlicher style. I installed a screw on bolt handle only because I haven`t found anyone were I live that I trust welding on it with the #`s matching the receiver & barrel. Will be replacing the trigger assy in the near future. The other one is my Interarms Mark X in 270W.

gitano, I`m with you on this. You are right on.

To me, it looks like an 03/38 turkish mauser.
