I've always loved the older Mannlicher Schoenauer bolt rifles; so slick, handy and accurate. I finally treated myself to this one, a full-stock MC with double triggers in 30-06. This will be my ultimate woods rifle.   | ||

Mike, it's from a private sale of an estate. Hard to find the full stock rifles in good condition for under $2,000 any more. I did well on this one, and it won't be going anywhere :-) | |||

Really nice with much better wood than the norm. What mount system is on it? | |||

Good find. I love those Mannlichers. "...I advise the gun. While this gives a moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprize, and independance to the mind. Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be the constant companion of your walks."

Almost as pretty as my 1959 Browning Medallion 30-06... I will have a mannlicher in the house by summer. | |||

Rich, the Mannlichers are hard to beat as hunting rifles, for sure. | |||

I once owned a 1950 MS stutzen in 30-06. Wish I'd kept it. The magazines are like hens teeth. Matt FISH!! Heed the words of Winston Smith in Orwell's 1984: "Every record has been destroyed or falsified, every book rewritten, every picture has been repainted, every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right." | |||

Real classic rifles though the Monte Carlo white spacer Hybrid stock is a modern variation. Holts have a few beauties for sale - real steal but you have to get them out of the UK! A couple with S&B or Swarovski scopes! "When the wind stops....start rowing. When the wind starts, get the sail up quick." | |||

Yeah, I love the gun, but the newer MC and white spacers are an abortion of gunmaking..I'll take the 1903-09 versions in 6.5 MS any day. Now that's nostalgia in spades. Im afraid I'd have to cut that comb down on the 06 and then it would be pure sex!!  and rate right up there with a Brno mod. 22F...Ray Atkinson Atkinson Hunting Adventures 10 Ward Lane, Filer, Idaho, 83328 208-731-4120 rayatkinsonhunting@gmail.com | |||

I have an inherited Greek mannlicher in the cabinet that will on day get a re-barrel, a new bolt handle, an a classic full length stock to make my classic woods rifle...even have a supply of lapua 156 gr sp's on hand to feed it and a few hundred pieces of brass....someday..... Shoot straight, shoot often. Matt | |||

Moshe-Moshe* Matt. A man needs to have a plan... Rich * I think it means good-good, or very good in Zim. It's what the trackers said when I shot my Buffalo and it did not cause us any problems. | |||

Nice score there Biebs!! How can any rifleman not love a full stock M/S? Mine is a 1903 obviously in 6.5 X 54. They just make you smile when you pick them up. DRSS: E. M. Reilley 500 BPE E. Goldmann in Erfurt, 11.15 X 60R Those who fail to study history are condemned to repeat it | |||

Rich One deviation is I want to fabricate a cocking piece aperture sight for it so I can hopefully use it with irons further into my golden years...no scope for me on those rifles.

Nice, nice, nice; have you shot it yet? | |||
|
| One of Us |
No, I pick it up Monday, but if it's like the other Steyr/Mannlicher-Schoenauer rifles I've owned, it will be a shooter. | |||
