Turkish 8mm Mauser Questions...

[Ricky123]

I am so frustrated with lack of 8mm avaiable I will ust about buy anything
that is not overpriced. Any 7.92 Mauser you gots. Or if you know where it can be sourced. The Turk 140 rounds you got is probably the worst but if you want to contact me directly we can discuss payment and shipping.

I lucked into 2 cases of Romanian 8x57 light ball a couple of years ago. It's very nice stuff. I've also got a good amount of Ecuadorian, Czech, and FNM that I've been hoarding since the late '80's. Even have 300+ rounds of FNM tracer and some war-time German made-for-export ball. I imagine milsurp guys still have lots of it squirreled away, but the only place you'll find significant quantities of milsurp ammo is at gunshows.

If they'd let me shoot my Bren, I'd certainly have a lot less of it.

And no, it's not for sale.
