Okay, so I saw a sweet looking Persian Mauser Model 98/29 at my local gun shop. He has it at like $389. However, I was looking around at Samco and am curious about the ones they have that are in "very good condition" for $209. The only thing is that it says no bluing. What is that all about? Does that mean they came like that, or that the blue is all worn off. The only reason I ask is that the other Persians they have available are the excellent rated ones, but they are $499.
Also, I am kinda debating between this one and a Finn m39. Which should I buy first?
