Picked this up pretty cheaply. Appears to be a vet bringback that was sporterized at one time then someone put a different stock on it. Everything seems to match except for the front bands and of course the stock. Hopefully I didn't make a mistake buying it but I figure for 475 bucks I have a...

I mentioned before about my 1871 Cavalry Mauser that I picked up off of craigslist (of all things) for 175 bucks. I've had the thing for about six months and never got around to firing it. Well, a few weeks ago I finally decided to pull some ammo that I had scrounged and give her a shot. This...
