So I got my C&R a while ago, but had to wait for finances to allow me to start my collection.
I settled on a VZ-24 from Aim Surplus as my first. Just ordered it tonight, so just gotta wait for it to show up.
Pics when I have her, but too excited about it not to post about it now.
So, what do I need to do once it gets here? Obviously record the info in my bound book, and give it a good once over to look for problems.
Talked to the guys at AIM on the phone last week about it, and they said the headspace was checked on them to make sure they were ok. Is it okay to trust that, or should I look for a gauge and check it myself?
Also anything i need to be aware of with this rifle? Have some knowledge of mausers since I have a sporterized 1893 Spanish, and from the pics I assume the basic operations are the same?
Ok, bit tired, and starting to ramble so I'll leave it at that for now.
