[QUOTE="Ksmirk, post: 787496, member: 880"] speaking from a guy who has built 4 Mauser rifles into modern rifle you gonna spend more to convert it than to just get a modern rifle. Just cause your rifle was chaep don't think you will not sink a pretty good little dollar into it, a $75 Mauser action after it is said and done you'll have at least $150 - $200 bucks in it. Drill and tap for scope, forge or weld a new bolt handle on, lap the lugs, headspace barrel, refinsh all the stuff you ground on. Don't get me wrong I LOVE Mauser rifles but I tell everyone that they would just be better off to get a modern rifle and go from there. Later, Kirk [/QUOTE]
