guys,
ww1 is my war. i know everything about it, collect everything from it, including rifles.
i'm absolutely DYING for a good berthier. my requirements are that it has to be the 5rd (not the 3rd mag), and be the full length. i've already got the interwar cut down carbine and i want the full thing so when i stick the bayo on it which i already have it'll be ginormous.
i've been lurking on gunbroker for ages and see a few over and over that have not been sold in over a year. is the market for frenchy stuff just small? any special tips on what to look for with these?
this is more or less what i want, but i want one in better condition:
