OT Yugo Mauser question

Marvin · 05-02-2001, 06:47 AM

Bob,

I have thought about getting one and just putting it up for the future. Then I feel that I would want to shoot it and I would want to work on the stock to make it look good. I think that the stock would look nice it reworked a little. The bluing I have seen on some are OK, but again you are correct that the machining was not that good. After doing stock work, rework the metal and reblue to have a nice looking rifle, I felt it may ruin the value in the future. What decisions we have. But, all I need is another 98 rifle. They take up too much room so I decided to stay with Lugers.
