Re: Mauser action
They sell for $250.....someone had them advertized.....I paid way too much for mine and the price in Daly's website is highly inflated.

I fixed mine myself rather than return it to Daly.....

I'll try to find the advertizement and let you know who it is..... But you might plan on a little fixing when you get it.

Chic,
that makes better sense... looked like it had been a gunshow table ugly, that had been coonfingered for 2 years without being oiled

They explored moving the shotgun manufacture to the Philipines. Now is that because of all the great gunsmith industry there or the cost of the labor.



Well, I think you are on to something there Judgeing of the pictures it's quite obvious that the definition of quality is very floating

FN actions looks like custom work compared to the Daily's, I guess less time at the gunsmith too

I thought we were talking about a comm. FN action...I didn;t read it very carefully.

I want to amend my post, if it were an FN Commercial or even a MK10 then I would think it a good deal, but not if its a Chas. Daley, they are pretty much junk and are not the same as a Mark 10, quality control went south with Daley......

I'll have to tell my twins that I now have proof that I did not make up "coonfingering." They think it's funny, but they sure know what it means when I tell them not to do it!

Shannon,
everyone in Texas knows what coonfingering means.. I think Ray was around when the phrase was invented... water was around, dirt was around, but I think it was just before MUD was invented.

My whole family is from Texas, but I've yet to hear that term. One things for sure, it'll be heard a lot more often now Reckon my dad's been outa Texas too long to remember all the quality lingo. He'll appreciate the refresher course, I'm sure.

The very first time I heard the term, it was in reference to a gunshow. Asked if he had bought anything, my brother's friend said, "Naw, but I coon-fingered a few".
