Karl:

Yes, you are right. What I like most about these collectables is shooting them. I also like the roar of the 7.92mm round that a K98 fires. Compared to it, my old Ruger 10/22 seems like a puny little popgun that I can hold up with two fingers. I’m going to go to Bi-Mart soon and get a box of some commercial Remington 9mm ammo I think. And give the old DWM a go. One thing that I’ve grown to dislike about shooting though is the breakdown and cleaning afterwards. Even if I fire just one round, I always completely break down a rifle and clean it down to every last part and screw. My hands end up hurting for the next day or so from the gun solvent and oil that soak them for hours.
