    C&Rs found in San Diego store

    For all the SD people, I was down there this weekend

    Stopped into Fine Firearms and saw they had a decent amount of C&Rs

    Some T38 Arisakas, scrubbed mum

    A T99 Arisaka with monopod and AA sights (surface rusting and what seemed to me some paint splatter here and there). Scrubbed mum. Not Last Ditch style

    A lot of Mauser variants. Arg, Port, maybe a Spanish... (the Port had it's crest and pretty decent looking). The Arg crest was scrubbed

    Aforementioned rifles were in the $350 range. Some a bit more, some a bit less

    Some 1903s on the wall. One had some gold plated metal like the sights. Also had a medallion on the butt. I didn't get to see it as all the employees were doing DROS for 3 diff people

    There was an older rifle that had an extremely large cheek weld on the butt and the butt was very cupped, like it cupped under toward the armpit. Not sure if it was a centerfire or percussion cap or what. Again, didn't get to hold it

    Also 6 or so pump action .22 both Rem and Win models

    Handguns were 1920's DMW Luger for $1250

    Astra 400

    Savage... 1924? Is that a model? Was something like that

    There were a few more, but the tags were all bojangled and I couldn't see what the tag said because I didn't know what it was off the top of my head

    I was really going to get the T99, but couldn't justify a trip back down in 2wks

    Also had a decent selection of reloading stuff and powders. Didn't peruse that section too long as I had to be elsewhere

    Fig I'd let some people try to snag something

    Couldn't remember if there was a thread for this kind of stuff. Sorry not sorry

      Aaron, did it resemble something along these lines?

      If so, it's probably a schuetzen rifle.

          ^^^^^ agreed. One of the worst gun shops I've ever been to. I did a PPT there once and there was only one other customer in the shop with 2 staff, and the PPT still took nearly an hour. Slow as can be. Plus, when I came to pick it up, one of the older dudes behind the counter literally flipped out and kicked over a chair because he couldn't get the snap cap to load for his painfully slow safety demonstration. He was a 55 years old toddler. I was out of there as fast as could be. I won't go back even for a decent deal.

            Yup! That's pretty much it, Enfield. A Schutzen. I've seen a pic of one only once before

              They had some neat stuff judging by the picture. That '91 argentine was very nice, save for the scrubbed crest, but most of them are like that. My engineer's carbine has all crests/cartouches intact but the bore is a sewer pipe . The vergueiro or however the hell you spell that was an interesting bit. You know me though, I like the weird crap... As for lousy gun stores, I've bought stuff from turners, which is about as bad as it gets. But hey, when a place has what I want, I can be very patient...

                  They are typically on the high side $$$$
