Buying a used mauser

[twh]

I'll second the opinion regarding the Carcano and add that they also take a special clip in order to be used as a repeating rifle, which I have never seen for sale, but there is or used to be a tutorial online as to how to make one. Going off the picture the Yugo has the better bore but looks like it may have already been counterbored. The 98/22 appears to have a good bore, although used quite a bit, but at that price it worth consideration. Having said that either one of the Mausers would be an ok deal as far as the price goes just depends on what you want and what you want to spend.

The 98/22 has a reputation for fine accuracy. Mine is no exception even though the bore is far from pristine.
