[QUOTE="shortgrass, post: 404674, member: 24284"] I'm not far behind you in years, Clark. Have fun, satisfy yourself with another of your creation. I grew-up watchin' Dad, Uncles, and most for their friends build rifles on Mausers and , sometimes, a Springfield. I've seen some extraordinary rifles built, virtually by hand (except the nessesary lathe work). I own many myself. My last hunting trip was with rifle built on a Steyr made '98... I, also, saw some fail, probobly for many different reasons. While I was attending 'smith school I did repairs for a local pawn shop, lots of repairs. Being close to a school like that there were alot of Mausers around, in various conditions I might add. Saw several more receivers with failures. Came back home, opened shop, I've seen one or two more. My observations and what I learned brought me here; Respect a Mauser for what it is. Know and understand the way it was made. Examine it closely before you build on it. Some Mausers are [I]much[/I] better than others. [/QUOTE]
