Hello,

I'll keep an eye out. They are very scarce.

Got lucky and found my M88/05 complete for $37.50! :D

I don't mind sharing the trigger design. The trigger cannot be patented because it's too close to the Finnish trigger and, at any rate, it's now in the public domain!

I'm an Indiana boy and, as such, don't know much about rifles.

Squirrels MIA?

No cracked neck. That's where soot gathered.

Got Out the Gewehr 88 Today
