why wouldnt they, they refinish the k98's they have and sell them as great condition originals. take a look at the picture they use in their ads to sell the k98's, it was obviously reblued by somebody that has no clue as to the proper finish on a k98. parts in the white that should be blued, and blued when they should be in the white.

Well to stamp counterfeit markings on a firearm,in order to modify it to increase it's historic/"monetary"value is deceit.It's all to common in the C&R World today,but I cant see Mitchell's doing it.Taking Battle Scars of an old Mauser,and making it into a right out of the box new pair of shoes,is crime enough in my thinking.Fraudulent markings opens up another door,"fraud" look it up. | |
