Mausers and remington rolling block rifles

[skeeter4206]

Was just checking out Simpsonsltd.com and they had (2) 71/84's on there site. One was for $325 and looked kinda rough. Then there was a nice looking one for $1400. Looks like they have gone up a little in price since the 70's.

71/84s ae commonly found in exc to mint condition.
After conversion they were stored and never issued.

Seeing this beast is 11mm. I bet it kicked like no other. Wonder if thats why it was never issued out. I bet it left quite a sore shoulder after a good day of shooting.
