Fellow Shooters,
I'm looking for a source where I can get a couple of old Antique Mausers or any bolt action rifle that are non FFL/non C&R. It doesn't matter what condition they are in...just so long as they aren't rusted piles of junk. I just plan on restoring the wood and metal work.
My idea is to give one to my son ( a couple of freinds of mine want one also) as an all around play rifle. I'm just tired of those ugly cheap plastic toy guns that are common these days. Of course the barrel would be plugged, firing pin removed and the weapon rendered inoperable.
Anyone know of a source of antique cheapo guns?
Heck..if you have one for sale, just let me know!
Oh..and I've considered the negative points of having such a realistic looking weapon as a kids toy. My son either plays in the house or out at the in laws on a 10 acre wooded lot, so someone bugging him isn't a concern.
Good SHooting
