Attention New Members and those new registering! We had a lot of problems with spammers and bot attacks with the stock measures provided by the software. The 7 for registration was a fix that we came up with on our own that has worked quite well. Yes it is a PIA for both you and administration to put you onto your chosen username. If you come back on and your login does not work retry with your username without the 7. Thanks for joining us from the administration.

I think I know but Comrade Fearless Leader has the Steyr book & he will have to jump in. The buyer is a big hitter among Steyr collectors. SW

You just don't see many of those around. Lots of Dutch mannlichers bur very few of the Rumanians. Even rarer are the 'Irish' export model of 1904, which were about identical but in 8X57 instead of the 6.5 X 53 rimmed of the Rumanian. I have a stock around here somewhere for the 'Irish' model. Now I just need something to put in it!
