    Arrow Mauser 98 Rifle, 8mm, BRNO (Valley Guns)

    Feedback and comments anyone?

    Valley Guns - Mauser 98 Rifle, 8mm, BRNO (click here)

    Featured here is a Mauser 98 in 8mm Mauser, manufactured by BRNO. Comes with winter triggerguard, leather sling, cleaning rod & YES all numbers on bolt & receiver match!!!

    Obviously a late war production due to the stamped metal on the stock & trigger guard. Leather sling is original & showing signs of age, metal in very good condition, stock has no cracks, but scratches and light dings from handling.

    Buyer must have a valid Canadianicon PAL for purchase,Buyer pays GST Tax, only ON residents have to pay the PST, buyer pays exact shipping fee via can post courier, determined at end of auction by winners address.
    Starting price is the same as the reserve, so no BS.

    Good luck on your bids!!!
    Regards,
    Badger

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Ahh... scr@w it. I'm gonna take the plunge. While not as collectible as a German K98icon, I need an example for my accumulation of these things.

    Too bad about the ground receiver ring though. Would have been nice if the rampant lion rollmark were intact.

    I'd also asked Jeff for pics of receiver when it first appeared. I'd be interested also but gun-fund took a Mauser hit already. Go for it Claven2 and you could probably drive to pick it up for less than shipping if still driving that little Suzuki.
