  1. "Dip it in the bucket. Count to 10. Pull it up. Let it drip for 5 minutes over the bucket before hanging it on the rack. If the lacquer gets so thick it drips for more than 5 minutes give it a squirt of thinner... any questions?"

  2.  @philhawley1219  It's the lacquer and the carve job that makes it look bad. If this had been made by a competent woodworker, and it had been finished with mat wax, the same piece of wood would have looked stellar.

  3.  @blahorgaslisk7763  The set trigger was heavy, the shooting trigger was light (but awkward). On Mausers without a set trigger it cocks on reload, so I would imagine they would have a medium but crisp trigger pill like other Mauser. The Mauser format is almost hard to screw up. And with that klonker of a barrel 8mm Mauser might only kick like a mule (ass opposed to kicking like a zebra with 50 meters of run-up as sporterised Mausers with pencil barrels do).

  4. Most of the European countries allows firearms ownership. But most either bans or make it a very lengthy process to get pistols or revolvers. I can't think of a country off-hand where hunting rifles and shotguns are prohibited.

  5. My only question is: What horrors lurk in the Romanian forrests that require 8mm Mauser to reliably take down. I mean, I like the history, the concept of making it from what was available, and even the look (they they were at least aiming for), but I consider this "a shoulder cannon".

  6. By 2006 they weren't licking their pencils and reusing mail envelopes as post-it notes.
