ALL those old beat up mil Mauser behind every counter in shops.
They used to be throw aways
Still have the first one I brought back from the dead!
The actions made great rifles.
It's probably plastic
Use a mix of acetone and trans fluid (do not get on anything else but bore)it will melt the plastic away in a short time. Should be gone in a few swipes!
The 223 556 is truly addictive!
And the best thing you have more trigger, scope and range time! It's a fundamental tool to say the least.......did I say addictive!
Usually it's the rifle that I am currently working up loads for at the time of the season ! The straight pull I had just finished so off to the woods I went! But it truly is a product of tereny!
This rifle was inspired from Kathy holchul's stance on sportsman throughout NY.
It's a straight pull (no gas white oak barrel) bolt rife with all the trimmings.
I would like to thank Kathy for the inspiration!
Because without her it wouldn't exist!
