Nope, try again. Think frozen northern country.

Some of those pictures are cool as hell. I wish I could change the background on my computer here at work to one of them.

It actually looks alot like the turkish mausers I have. Could it be a mauser clone of some kind?

A lot of Mausers look alike, actually most of them. And it is not a clone, it is one of the best Mausers made.

Both these guns have front sight hoods on, the above one does not.

I shot my first buck with a '96. The 6.5x55 round dropped it in its tracks at 75 yds.

 

[dave89iroc]

yeah, the 6.5x55 is a pretty good round
