Next up is a Yugoslavia mauser m48 that I saved from another "amateur gunsmith" that total jacked it up. I had to rebarrel it because they had cut it down to like 16 inches, had to weld the holes from a botched drill and tap job and re drill and tap replace and fit a new bolt because they welded the handle on without protecting the lugs and they had softened. The even cut one of the three lugs off for whatever reason. I replaced the stock with a current m48 stock the one on it was a total loss. I then reblued the whole gun and topped it with a bushnell banner scope. Im gonna upgrade it to a burris eventually. It turned out really nice and is one of my favorite guns to shoot now. I did ad a recoil pad to the original style stock.
