Picked this up at the Dugald gun show for $175 - I found it almost hidden away under a display rack. The old fellow selling it wanted $200 and I negotiated him down. Bohler-Stahl M/24 without sling hangers, NOT SA marked, two district numbers. Bore is bright and strongly rifled, but has some definate pitting - not enough to effect accuracy.

Not a perfect gun - as you can see that's a nasty crack in the handguard, which I'm pretty sure isn't a proper M/24 handguard anyways. Another crack through the butt, although the whole thing is solid - might have been glued by a previous owner. If so he did a good job, I didn't even notice till after I'd cleaned it and got it in the sunlight. I'm still happy with it though - otherwise its very nice, and it absolutely reeks of history. The price was also very right!

Actually the this gunshow was not bad at all, specially when compared to the previous Manitoba gunshows, which were going downhill.:(
I even managed to pick up 40 rounds of the rare 7.62x39 tracer.:dancingbanana:


Good find on the tracer, I missed it. There definitely was a lot of 7.62x39 at this show.
