Mitchell Mauser Question

[.45s r best]

Thanks for all the imput from everybody! Yes, I have heard a company makes taller sights that fit it. From what I gather, it is the opinion of some that Mitchell's engages in a little hype with their advertising and that they are pricey, thats fine with me so long as it is a quality piece. I have heard about Persian Mausers and I have seen a few, although not lately. Again, the attraction for me is the calibers it comes in and the fact that I like carbines in general.

Find an Enfield No 5 Mk 1 or a Mosin 38 or 44 carbine. If you like carbines you will Love these two.

A gunshop by me had an Enfield No 5 mk1...for about a day! Beautiful piece!

Did you note the year/price? If I find another I may be compelled to purchase it.

All that I have ever heard about Mitchells is bad, a lot of original rifles get destroyed in the making of their "tankers; and such.
If I wanted a shooter, a Mitchells would do, if I want a collector, I would look elsewhere.

The No5 is No1

You got that right!
