saw a beautiful VZ52 at my LGS yesterday, comes with 400rds. I am THIS CLOSE to putting it on layaway. But it's $~850 and I already have an IAC 1897 on layaway. It would be a very poor decision. But unf.
>>
>>32384114
If you could get it for atleast $100 less it would be worth it. Most surplus ammo is terrible, failure to fires constantly ans corrosivev AND steel cased.

Reloading dies are about $200 also unless you group order...

7.5x55 - while not exactly rare, I still have to order it, and surplus is practically non-existant right now

8x57 - Again not rare, but can't find it locally

7.62x38R - same story

7.62x25 - same

So, none of it is "rare" just not available for me local.

Not the other anon who asked questions, but this thing looks really awesome. I'm surprised it didn't get used more and now I'm wondering why that was the case.
>>
>>32387398
Well I'm no expert on them, I just picked one up because i saw it for 350 and had to have it but I imagine it had a lot to do with the cartridge. It was used by police and the French military during ww1 in pretty small numbers but the cartridge, which is very similar to .30 carbine was probably considered anemic for most things in a time when everyone used full sized rifle cartridges pretty exclusively. Here's one unfired cartridges next to a fired one, I made thread awhile back because the cases where bulging but I think the poor cases were responsible at least in some degree

You can buy 6.5 spaghetti from ppu. It magically can be reformed into 7.35 as its the same case. Hardly a unicorn if you know how to make unicorns from donkeys.

The first centerfire rifle I ever bought was a Type 99 that had been sporterized. That was in the fall of 1985 when I was a broke high school kid and there was no internet of which to speak. I still have it. It's one where they set the barrel back a turn and rechambered to .30-06, so now I load .303-06 for the Frankensaka. It's actually a damn good gun.

>thinking about hitting it with a .30-06 AI or .30 Newton reamer so the ammo for it won't chamber in a standard .30-06.

I also have a MAS model 36 in 7.5 Frog. Damn, I love that gun.
