Bag, it's not as bad as some say. You've got a Timney trigger, it's been drilled/tapped and the bolt has been altered. The screw holes on the side need to be plugged w/flat head plug screws. Don't worry about the different sizes...they come in all sizes. The bolt handle needs to be polished in a shoe shine fashion to take the sharp edges off of the sides and dress it up. Have the stripper clip guide removed and have the action surface ground. This will take some of the pits out and make it more pleasing to the eye. The entire action needs to be broken down, cleaned good w/the correct brushes and greased where necessary. It has a nice Buehler safety so most of the action/bolt work is already done. The cost of these alterations and parts is about $300-$350. It's a good start and then all you need is a barrel and guy to spin it on for you. Don't let these guys fool ya...not all of their Mausers are guild builds. powdr
