HA! Got another one! You can swim and jump and fight, but you ain't spittin' out this hook! An ideal first project (low bucks and excellent shooter), is a Twede, as pointed out above. But you better...

I absolutely can't think of their name right now. I'll have it when I get home tonight. The Sistema's are not on their website. The first batch imported might be spoken for, but I can't say for sure....

That is a good price if they are indeed in good shape. I bought two about 5 years ago, and they were rearsenaled also. I kept one original and built the other into a "target" gun. It sure taught me a...

First question, are you using a Swede barrel, as in a takeoff or one from Swedish warehouse? Or an aftermarket barrel? The Swedish barrels are small thread, .980" as I remember. Something to think...

A K. Kale with a sweede barrel is cheap and easy.My Tweede is about my favorite.Turk 38's are going for about $55 now. Sweede barrels are getting harder to find but I think Kebco may still have some...

I'm sorry. I see I didn't provide the right information to get the right advise.Mauser action for an aftermarket 6.5x55 (Swede) barrel. I'd like this first one to have an accurate aftermarket barrel...

Adams and Bennett (Midway) make small shank barrels that will work on a K. Kale as well. Tough to beat the sweede barrels though.These are new old stock and don't have sights.I put mine in a Richards...

Is that the easiest first time rebarrel? K.Kale and the Adams and Bennet barrel?I felt that with the scope it would not need sights. I'm not going to hunt or survive with it. Just have fun.May I ask...

You will find a 24/47 or M48 to be a more refined action than a Turk. Since you are using an aftermarket barrel, that would be the route that I would suggest. Both Boyds and Richards make stocks for...

That's just the type of advice I'm looking for.One last pesty question. Do all aftermarket barrels just screw onto the 24/47 or M48 receiver or will a cut out have to be made for the extractor?Thanks...

In my opinion, there is no such thing as a "no lathe" barrel. That said, you have an option on the M48 or 24/47 receivers. I prefer to install a barrel with the original step for the safety breech....

dad, it looks great. By the time I called in, most of those I inquired about had already been sold. The list was a month old. I ended up purchasing a Standard grade rollover for my 94 Carbine (already...
