Success at the Auction From Hell this morning. Picked up a decent Type 38 carbine, a model I did not yet have with a bayonet and dust cover. It's not museum quality, someone refinished most of the stock and the mum is ground but it has a great bore and is in pretty good shape overall. Photos will follow maybe tomorrow.

I had to let a K98icon go for less than $300 as it went just prior to this one. I know, tough decision but my funds were very limited. It had a good bore and no Russianicon markings. People at this auction just make no sense sometimes. This is by far the cheapest I've seen a K98 go in years, anywhere. Not a single number on it matched and someone slathered a thick coat of varnish on it but that could have been easily removed.
