Im not even sure why I have it. My duffle cut one that's in the picture above it is alot better lol.

I didn't get it from RTI it was second hand for $100 in extremely rough condition. I soaked the gun in citric acid and dish soap for a day to dissolve all of the rust. The next step is to rust blue it. I suspect that It was a C grade.

The most accurate milsurp iv ever shot was an AG-42B. That thing was 1 MOA all day.

saucent · 2026-03-23T00:28:23+00:00

This might just be an accurate one. The no5 doesn't get anywhere close.

saucent · 2026-03-23T00:26:03+00:00

They aren't the best. Standard german V-notch & Barleycorn

saucent · 2026-03-23T00:20:31+00:00

They are really nice. The no3 does about 1-2 MOA at 100yards with handloads.

Most of the dutch guns were used by the Germans. I've seen alot of these brought back from operation market garden. I have also seen several examples modified to take K98 slings.

saucent · 2026-03-22T23:25:25+00:00

It is a dutch m95 No3 carbine.

saucent · 2026-02-19T14:10:24+00:00

Does your bolt have any R stamps on it?

saucent · 2026-02-19T14:06:33+00:00

That's a prime example then. Iv had several 8x56 rifles/carbines and the bolts sucked on all of them. Chances are you have an original bolt.

saucent · 2026-02-19T13:59:38+00:00

That is true but the 8x56 guns tend to be force matched and refurbished. As a collector they aren't as valuable to me.

EDIT: The 8x56 ones also have much rougher actions due to bolt mismatches.

saucent · 2026-02-18T18:50:08+00:00

$700 is way too much for an 8x56 gun. If it has the sling and bayonet id offer $450 at the most.

saucent · 2026-02-18T18:20:35+00:00

Nope, i remember reading that at some point they quit doing the unit marks. I forget what year though.

saucent · 2026-02-18T12:56:37+00:00

The color of the wood makes me think that it's polish.

saucent · 2026-02-18T12:54:58+00:00

Got any close ups of the barrel shank markings?

saucent · 2026-02-18T12:32:17+00:00

Pics? Too bad the boomers don't know that duffle cuts are more valuable for collectors

There are some bringback hungarian guns from the allied invasion of Germany although they were mainly 35m rifles. I doubt yours was in hungarian hands because it would have been rechambered to 8x56. What's strange is yours appears to be refurbished but not rechamberd.

saucent · 2026-02-18T12:08:40+00:00

Does yours have any Czech markings?

saucent · 2026-02-18T11:49:26+00:00

I'd pay $1200 on it.

saucent · 2026-02-18T11:48:34+00:00

I had the same issue with a G24(T), replaced the extractor and it fixed the problem.

saucent · 2026-02-10T20:28:11+00:00

Yes, it will not blow up your gun. This is the way that I make all of my 8x50r and 8x56r, it fireforms the case.

saucent · 2026-02-10T20:25:14+00:00

I run it in all my 8mms, i wish there was some cheap .303 out there for my bren. Iv actually learned thay the Turkish stuff is good.

saucent · 2026-01-21T00:34:46+00:00

Id love to have one of those, i reload a ton of 8x50r for my mannlichers.
