JG sales are very good to deal with. The hex receivers are pre 1935, so you will get one that has been thru WWII and maybe you will get a bit of a rare one. Luck of the draw.
That would be cool. I'm going to do the same thing I did to my Ishapore Enfields to one of these. I bought two of the Ishapores. I kept one 'stock' except for a really good clean up and refinishing the wood. (I know, HERESY!). The other one I sporterized with a nice synthetic stock and a drill and tap for a scope mount.
If I am fortunate enough to get a rarer model I'll pretty much leave it alone except for a real good scrubbing to get the cosmoline off. The other I'll turn into a sporter and have a bit of fun with it.
I know they're not Mausers but what the heck. For a hundred bucks a piece they'll make nice little summer projects.
Thanks again. Talk to you on the other forum soon.
