Hello from Kansas

[CAustin]

Joined today, I loved old prewar German schuetzen rifles, own and shoot several. I hunt with pre WW1 Mauser sporters. I have been bitten by the Mannlicher Schoeneaur bug after purchasing an MCA 243 a year ago. I am haggling to buy a 1910 9.5x57 full stock. Hope to close the deal Monday.

The only place I have been in Africa is Morocco. My Wife and I vacationed there during Ramadan in 2015, loved it, such a beautiful place, people were wonderful. We are taking a 30 day cruise in December thru the Suez down the east coast to Cape Town. Kind of a get acquainted with the country thing. She is constantly encouraging me to take a hunt in Africa, I tell her I am too old, but I have bought a medium bore, who knows.

Hello @yamoon … Welcome! I’m equally a fan of the full stock Stutzen ie Mannlicher rifles & living/working in Germany puts me in primary real estate to score afew classic before my contract terminates.

A German friend has two/2 in Sako & Steyr .308 & 9.3x62 … balance fell off shooting stix also!

Happy Trails

Find a Mannlicher Schoenauer in 10.75 X 68 and you've hit the jackpot.
