Good enough to fight a war... good enough to put dinner on the table. |

Pretty tender... but a little gamey. Tastes vaguely of pronghorn. |

In 71, I was going to college on the GI Bill - which didn't leave a lot of $ left over for eats, and jobs were scarce that winter. My pal had his Dad's Carcano, and we lived on deer all that winter. I don't recall Bambi being any less deceased for having been whacked with a lowly I-talian rifle. My sweetie could cut-n-wrap with the best of 'em!  Being a poor starving student that winter wasn't so bad. I had a job at a liquor store/pizza place & we usually had a bottle o' vino to make the deer lions slide down a little easier... No TV so we sat & talked a lot. She had a V-Dub & a tank of gas would last forever. We'd cruise the upper crust neighborhoods & pretend we were all rich. The dumb stuff you don't do just to pass the time... Lord have mercy, my sweetie was a cutie! Ah, them was the days! SW

I like the thought of milsurps being out there as hunting rifles but makes me sad to see one that's been all cut up and sporterized

Nice deer, Pete. Nice Mauser, too. Is that the original stock? Nice wood. Reminds me of Tiger Maple. Dean |

I know this is a old post, but I can't help but Agree with you they are great hunting rifles. I carry one for part of our deer season Haven't had the right deer show up yet. It's just a matter of time. P.S. very nice M.S.R.guys. |

In 1961 I lived on a ranch in a very rural part of western Nebr. Mom & dad went to town once a week. While Mom was shopping, I wandered up & down the main street of a small town. In a hardware store I saw an ad for 1917 rifles for sale @ 19.95. Brang new in cosmolene. Told dad & he bought one. Like rifles from Albania, it had been SOAKED in cosmo. He cleaned it with a bucket o' gasoline & sporterized it. Which is most uncool today, but for a cash-strapped ranch foreman, it was a using rifle for an affordable price. Shot a lot of deer with it, we did! SW |

I can remember as a kid looking at old surplus Rifles in the Montgomery Wards catalog don't Remember the $. But my mother must have notice that, one day She took me to the Western Auto store and bought Me a new Revelation 100 22 cal. Rifle. Don't have the rifle anymore , but I due have The steel box gun cleaning kit. With the Revelation name on it , witch was the stores Brand name. P.s. I don't want to hijack this. Trend so I will start Another , I have another story like this. |

It was an Eddystone. I got a bloody nose from it first deer I shot - choked up too far on the stock. Didn't notice until I was gutting the deer & thought I cut myself. "Admin work ethic?" Maybe not - we have a heck of a time getting anyone to clean the terlet. And SOMEONE keeps messing with the wrestling magazines!!! They WERE in chronological order!!  SW
