I'm constantly shocked at the lack of simple knowledge of some of the "gun peddlers". There's a crappy little LGS between home and work that I occasionally pop into "just in case". He had an 94 mauser (cock on closing) that was labled "98" mauser. I told him, discreetly, it wasn't a 98 and he just looked at me like I was stupid.
