I am thinking of buying a K98 and was given Mitchell Mausers as a possible source. Has anyone bought from them and were you happy w/ your purchase?
TrueFriends don't let friends buy Mitchell's Mausers.
Also, don't forget they received a grade of "F" from the BBB.Run a search on MM or just scroll thru a page or 2 looking for MM threads.
To summerize what you will find:
Faked.
Overpriced.
Marketing based on pure deception.
That seems to be the generally accepted conclusion.
Want a reasonable price on an honest K98k look-a-like ?
Russian capture , Yugo capture, post-war Czech. The real deal , no bad after-taste.
I hope you were joking!Yeah. MM is a very good company to deal with. and their K98s are for the most part original. wait till you get their collector grade for $800!! You'll cry when you see those original stampings!!
That's actually just a computer glitch the BBB had.Mitchell's must be a reputable company now. They've had their rating changed to an "A". They probably turned in some extra credit work to get that "F" upgraded to an "A".
