I love the site, and I support the right to bare arms. I am used to dealing with .22 pistols, so getting an 8mm Turkish Mauser will be a big step. I am trying to think of any safety questions I need to ask before I get out on the range and get into a jam. I have heard that Mausers can jam, leaving a live round in the chamber. If this happens, how can I SAFELY get the round out without loosing body parts or getting dead?:nod:
