Re: CMP service grade

Very nice. Did you luck out and get a USGI stock with it? I bought a service grade IHC and a field grade Winchester and HRA back in 2018 and I lucked out with USGI stocks on all three. A lot of people were getting Hackberry stocks on their CMP guns when the Phillipine returns hit. I got WWII USGI s...

Re: What is this?

There is a designation in the stamping that PW bought it from Turkey. Turkey is the only country that would use M38 designation for a 8mm Mauser.
