Re: Dan's VZ 24 Mauser (AIM Surplus - "Rare Dated 1939")

Thanks everyone for the kind words, I can't wait to shoot this thing!! I'm pulling a quote from gunboards (Weldon, again sent me this link on these "dated" VZ's) I guess it was sold on contract into the czech army since it has the E lion icon, 39 pressed into it. By 1938 any # of would be ...

Dan's VZ 24 Mauser (AIM Surplus - "Rare Dated 1939")

Hi all, It's been awhile but wanted to drop in and show everyone my latest acquisition and get some additional experienced opinions. I picked this mauser up over at AIM, it was one of the "rare dated" they had in stock for a short while (thanks Weldon for the heads up!) It is a VZ24 dated ...

Re: Dan's Mosin Thread

Hey you missed a spot, lol. Just kidding. Looks worlds better. You know I've seen where Classic advertises they clean up rifles before shipping them "so you don't have too" They'd do better to just leave them alone. I wonder if the guy cleaning them is the same guy that chromes the mil-su...

Re: Dan's Mosin Thread

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I had some free time last night and I couldn't bear looking at this thing in it's current condition. I must say, I'm very pleased with the outcome. A little 0000 steel wool, some Ballistol, and an old shirt did me well! oh yeah, and it had about a pound of degreas...

Re: Dan's Mosin Thread

That was hand pick? I'd hate to see the worst of them. That was a handpick from CA... The chrome specialists. :roll: Haha, they sure do have some oddball stuff on their site. Most likely the one and only C&R's I'll purchase from them. Wasn't too happy with the communication nor "hand pick&...

Re: Dan's Mosin Thread

That was hand pick? I'd hate to see the worst of them. Yeah, i'm not too happy with it. I was definitely thinking I'd get something a tad bit better. It is what it is though and I'm happy to have one in the collection. dan are you going to be selling more 91/30's ? i thought i saw some on your site...

Re: Dan's Mosin Thread

Hey all, Just got my Type 53 chicom. It's a 1955. A bit rougher than I was hoping for, but am glad to have it to add to the collection. I guess I'll just have to be on the hunt for something in better condition to replace this one, one day. :shifty: Completely untouched, straight out of the box. Thi...

Re: Type 53

Hey billybob123,

I just paid $188 after shipping and hand pick for my Type 53. I'd say that's a pretty good deal if you can see it before purchasing.

Re: My Saiga AK47 Conversion

Used a carolina shooting sports conversion kit, and a UTG quad rail. I'm pretty happy how it turned out, though I dont really care for the extra weight of the front rail so far.... didnt realize it would be so heavy. I hear ya, when I converted mine I bought a Midwest Industries rail. It turned int...
