$110 for a never fired 7.62 NATO rifle which came complete with a ten round mag and all the cosmoline you could want. I picked up a 'sporter' style stock from some outfit in Arkansas I think, dunked the whole mess in Simple Green, soaked it for a day or two, and then elbow greased the hell out of it.
It turned into a right nice shooter. I topped it off with a mount I found someplace else on the 'net and a crappy Tasco scope.
I can ring cast iron skillets out to 400 yards or so with it. Not bad for a total investment of less than $250.00. Not bad at all.
Like I said; wish I'd bought six of 'em.

Agree..... some of the old surplus stuff looks like former fence posts to some and gold to others who know what is possible........scrap metal has it's uses.....:o)
