Recently sold Enfield Enforcer on GB - comments?

[Frederick303]

If you go the the "Gunboard Forums" site and then go to the Mauser K98 part of the forum, you will find there are a number of posts related to this seller. I believe you will find these posts under the heading of “Turd found” or something like that. I will let those interested go to that site and draw their own conclusions, as I honestly do not have enough knowledge on K98 rifles to be able to comment intelligently. K98 rifles sell for a wide range of prices in the US, depending on the degree of correctness; as such there is a high incentive to “improve” rifles of that type in the US.

Have seen various comments about the seller, and Caveat emptor seems to be a watchword - but so it should be with any purchase, whether online or in person. He DOES come up with some super items though and people such as myself can get hold of things that we otherwise wouldn't be able to find.

Additional. Saying this was an original Enforcer - it kind of makes me choke that I had to sell my complete one with sights, pecar scope, Arco case etc etc for less $$ than this went for when I was out of work a while back.

The K98 is the most fake rifle in history of man and draws all kinds of low morale scammers. EVERYTHING is stamped on them just about and if you know them it takes less then 10 seconds to know somethings wrong. I bet over half of the all matching K98's in this world are in fact NOT all matching.They regularlly sell the stamps on Ebay along with M1 carbine and Garands the latter normally just springfield stock stamps. I think it should be illegal to make or buy them considering the only thing you can do is commit fraud. I'd never pay another premium for one unless the man selling was 90 and had a bullet wound..lol
