Hi all,

Just went to check out some interesting project material:

A very cheap VOPO. 1936 frame/receiver + DWM toggle frankenluger force-matched Eastern German rework. Nice shooter and parts backup.

An almost new-in-the-box 06/73 Mauser Parabellum in 7.65 with 150mm barrel. This lovely gun had the misfortune to get 2 rounds stovepipe in it's barrel and the barrel is now scrap material.

I worked out a nice deal for both of them plus some parts/mags/accessories. My aim is to get the 06/73 rebarreled to 9mm, preferably with a target barrel/rearsight for competition purpose. If any of you guys have further suggestions or ideas, I'd love to hear it.
