 I only have 2 Yugo captures, 2 RC's, and a Romy capture.  I thought I had enough, thought maybe about adding a M48 Yugo, just for a change.....  Well, what did i do??  I ended up buying another RC, but this one has been around the block a few times, has RC X , East German refurb, and re-barrel, and to top it all off, it got to Iraq somehow

Why am i a sucker for these poor worn out rifles???

Only pics i have now are from the ad on Gunboards, you'll have to wait about a week till i have it in hand

Definitely has that "been there done that" look.  Thanks for sharing

My only K98 is also a BCD 42.  Very, very accurate rifle.  8mm Mauser is one of my favorite rounds.



I need a few more K98s!

I had five but did some major consolidating lately and am down to one, a 1937 dated S/2437. Going to pick up another in the near future. It's a run of the mill BYF 44 bring back. Nice collection! I'm jealous.

I can ask it, but I bet it'll be like the rest, and not say a damn word

IMO this is the greatest, sexiest, most amazing rifle in history.

my dream rifle is a K98 sniper.

Heh...I recently bought a pristine DOU 43 action (no bolt, action only) for $80 on GB. The machining isn't all that bad for a late/mid war era Mauser action.

I need to research the DOU Mausers to build it back to original.
