Hi Fred and Norm,

Thanks! I have a passion for Classic German Sporters. They are very expensive when found and, like Lugers, not something that you want to drag around in the woods.

So, I decided to build one that I could use and hunt with. I bought a "semi" sporterized '98 Mauser with a Bishop "fence post" stock similar to the before stock on the Model 70, and re-designed it.

Now I have a Classic Mauser Sporter that I don't have to worry about shooting and hunting with.

Norm, The problem is that most of them are getting squeaky and rusty.
