Right you are, Itcboy

I passed on the Mitchell Mauser even at the discounted price. I have bought mint Yugoslav Model 48 and 48A rifles for as low as $125.00. You are correct, the Model 48 and 48A rifles are not Kar98ks, but Mauser clones. The parts are different.

Regarding SOG, the gun shops I deal with no longer buy from them. I have several of their surplus rifles. In every case they overstated the condition of the rifles. Rifles that were advertised as NRA excellent came through as NRA good to very good. I got to the point of ordering three or four rifles and picking the best of the lot. I now deal with a local surplus arms dealer who has the rifles on hand and then offers discounts.

Welcome to the Forum! All the best...
Gil
