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.

more junk you can send to me for disposal :bigrin:

Kar 88 (carbine version of the 88 commission rifle) Not a mauser but a mannlicher.

You should see if it is possible to get the filler out of the sling slot in the stock. ay need to get a front sling swivel to make it "right" again.

Should be in 8 X 57 and the S designating either a rebarrel or a throat reaming to allow .323 spitzer bullets.

What arsenal is the manufacture?
