Very nice K98 Agenda. I guess you have an C&R license. I'd have to find a gunshop to recieve it for me. Is it one of those RC(Russian capture) KARs? How's the bore and have you shot it? I'm going to buy one eventually.

Uber_bob, did you refinish the stocks on those two? They look awesome!

Very impressive Bauer, what was the name of that rifle? I know it's the civilian version of the g36 action but I forgot the name. How's it group?

No I don't have a C&R license im only 19. Interodnance sent the gun to a gun store near my house. Yes it is Russian capture, the gun store owner was very impressed with my rifle. He ordered 4 for his store. The bore is in beautiful condition. I haven't shot it yet. I'm not sure if i should use milsurp or modern ammunition.

Cool! I had to wait until I was 21 to buy my first gun, which was the first thing I did after my birthday, (after going to a bar and getting hammered of course).

Very nice! About ammo, the considering factor is price. You can buy surplus ammo in bulk for far cheaper than new factory ammo. All military ammo should be regarded as corrosive, regardless of how it's advertised.

With corosive ammo, the only thing is you need to do is make sure you clean the bore properly after shooting with hot water/detergent or I heard even just Windex works. Normal solvent alone wont remove the acids from corrosive primers. I don't personally think it's such a big deal, if you consider this was the ammo they were meant to be fired with.

With new factory loads, you should get a bullet weight similar to what the gun was originally sighted with for better accuracy with the sights(I read somewhere). But if money's no object, you can buy several different types and see what you do best with.

It's an H&K SL8-5. Extremely reliable - never jammed on me, and the grouping is unbelievable. On a good day, it's about .5 MOA, and 1 MOA on a bad day at 100 yards. :D Of course, as long as you're not shooting Norinco ammo. :p

Actually Windex dosen't work i've heard, your best bet is steam, hot hot steam, for corrosive residue, at least that's what they say.

What does MOA mean anyhow?

its the corrosive salts in the primers that can cause the problem.
ammonia and water mixture are fine - thats what windex is.
swab it down at the range. dry the barrel out. then of course clean it.

steam would be nice , but hard to optain in the field.

i think someone once said if you are in a bind you could just piss down the
barrel. :D if you try that please make sure its unloaded and let us know
how it goes!
