    Prize entry for "Bubba's Hall of Shame"

    Just to cheer you all up on this sunny Sunday afternoon, take a look at this.

    http://egun.de/market/item.php?id=3363624

    The seller - a thoroughly respectable company here in Mauserland - appears to have been landed with several of these monstrosities, and describes them with appropriate modesty as "for parts, or to keep as a curiosity". Even if Bubba felt he just had to exercise his machining skills, why did he have to pick a fine example of a collectable rifle? And then, why on earth fit an old "Kurvenvisier" - not exactly the best possible sight in the world. And no foresight ????

    Take a look at the other examples as well. If anyone has a rational explanation for these perpetrations, I would be delighted to hear it.

    Patrick
