Has anyone bought or seen one of these? I know buying one is always a crap shoot, but I'm an inveterate piddler. I sent a copy of my C&R to them & am on the verge of ordering one Monday (talked with the rep today, no one else there, have to wait :confused: ). My plan is to replace the "bad" barreled action in my K98k (fair bore, good rifling but offensive to my sensitivities... :rolleyes: ). The outside is very good (Russkie capture), non-matching of course, but I want a very good bore, which the R Guns are advertised as having. It also occurred to me to rebarrel the bad one with a commercial bbl & build a shooter. I am well aware of the cost comparisons versus a new rifle, but I have been doing this since 1969, when I built a 308 on a VZ-24 action I got at New Orleans Arms Co., and it's fun. It also keeps me occupied and not vegetating in front of the tube (I guess it's the screen nowadays)...
