So I figured hey, sold my M6 and brought a sporterized 1891 Argentine mauser home.
The stock is done well, bore and 22" barrel doesn't look like its been used before, as if its brand new...kinda odd for a nearly 120 year old gun. Parkerized barrel, after market front sight...not sure about the rear one but the windage adjusters absent. Shoulders well, cheek plates a plus...not too sure on recoil, as its my first rifle
Shoots a weird cartridge, 7.65x53, its a jacketed centerfire with lead near the tip
oo:
My frame is too small for the Mosin 91/30, else I'd pick that up...its about the same price plus the ammo is way cheaper. :shrug:
Only issue is...while theres plenty of youtube vids on disassembling the bolt, theres virtually no info online on the trigger group. As if yet I'm still trying to figure out if the magazine can be unloaded from the bottom.
My cameras away on vacation with a family member, so the phone/flashlight pic will do
The stock has been sporterized, from the looks of it the bolt handle was welded on
The Ruger 10/22 cost about the same as this, but considering it was lubed up from storage, inspected by the gunsmith, a hard case, and 20 rounds of 180grain 7,65x53 argentine for $260 out the door, I took it
has one that can share some user advice?
