I've over the years collected shooter grade examples of most of the service rifles used by the major powers of WW2. A MAS-36 from France is not currently in my collection. A LGS has a pretty decent one with the grenade sight for about $600, that I'm seriously thinking about. I am not current on the prices for these, and am wondering if this is a good deal? Looking on Gun Broker it appears to be a pretty fair price, but if anyone knew different I'd be curious to hear.
Also does anyone have an opinion on the MAS-36 as a general purpose rifle? As one of the last bolt actions to be designed and built for general issue it has a lot of refinements earlier rifles don't have, and it seems like a decent rifle. Getting ammo isn't too difficult here, so that's not a major concern and I reload.
