    A pair of Argys

    Recently got a pair of '09 Argentineicon Mausers at an on-line estate sale--1 rifle and 1 carbine, both all matching. These are the auction pics--will post better upon arrival

    With intact crests as well, that was a very astute collector. Good for you. Those are three premium grade rifles you just snagged. I don't have to tll you that of course.

    Thanks, Gunner and Bear

    The two Argy's arrived yesterday and are pretty much "as advertised". Both are in fine condition, with the long rifle being a bit nicer.

    I'll post better pics and a range report when I can.

    They finally arrived and seem to be as advertised. All matching to include the cleaning rod and bore is spotless.

    Wow, they are a couple of nice looking rifles. I really like that full length stock.

    Those South American mausers can really be gorgeous. You've done well there.

    Thanks guys.

    Here are the pics of the carbine:








    Not quite as nice as the rifle, but in pretty fair condition. Metal is all matching, but the stock has been pretty heavily sanded.

    Those rifles are almost impossible to find in Canadaicon.
