[QUOTE="Packrat 6, post: 1005770, member: 80288"] OK, got the Rifle back from the gunsmith who checked it all out and test fired it. says it is in excellent condition except someone put the front sight in backwards...? This must be my lucky week, got the Chilean Mauser back from the Gunsmith and my Remington VTR all rebuilt and back from Remington and they are both good to go! (See misaligned Scope base holes in Gunsmithing) Have decided to completely restore the Mauser except leave it in 308 for now and make the beautiful one from Shortgrass look puny...LOL That is one beautiful Rifle Shortgrass. Wish the Chilean crest on the receiver was readable on mine and not polished off. The only thing readable on mine is Modelo 19__. Not going with the modified bolt and special stock until I see what I can do with it stock. I really want to Check out the accuracy of the iron sights at extended ranges, so will be working toward that end after my eyes get fixed next month. Anyway, thanks for any and all input from those who responded. Bruce In the ear, right? [ATTACH]40205.vB[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]40206.vB[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
