Which is why I am an accumulator, not a collector.
Found a wonderful FR8 Mauser today, and cannot wait to shoot it. I have wanted one of these for a while, but the supply had seemed to dry up. i shot my friends a few years ago and man to they have some kick lol. I was always intrigued by the design and love the old mauser actions. Having a short, fast handling bolt action carbine in 308 sounds like it is going to be a pretty nice addition. I know they are not much to look at and are kind of a bastard child but I have a soft spot for the more unusual stuff.
If you are unaware of these things do a google search and read some of the history, pretty interesting stuff!
