Well its that time of year for filling up a few slots on my ticket, the main thing I was looking for was a No5 Jungle carbine, I actually found one on GT for £300 I couldnt believe it and it was only 45 mins away, I phoned up and some bas beat me to it. I was gutted, anyway I got a phone call a day later, asking was I still interested (has a fish got a waterproof head) anyway needless to say I went for a look, the chap was giving up and said he had a few other bits, :shakeshout:
I walked away with a very cheap and nice No5 carbine.
A Yugo Mauser K98 well used mostly matching but nice and originally German.
250 rds of 7.92 surplus.
A K98 cleaning Kit.
A K98 original sling.
110 rds of .303 Mk7 surplus.
All for the price of your average Jungle carbine, Oh and a kin big grin on my face party2

Oh very nice, now where are the pictures? tongueout

Tax rebate in, then? :lol: :lol: What did you get Roo?

Oh yeah that was the other thing I got him that Leupold Mk4 8.5 -25.
I have to say that was a good deal as well, less than half the list price, thats it no I have said to him I never want to hear the "its the scope" excuse for missing

Ill stick some on tomorrow

I've been eyeing that Jungle Carbine up for awhile (along with a 1902 Lee Enfield Carbine, NZ contract)

It just seemed too good to be true at 300, but I'm glad it was true!

Still no pics though........
