In about five days i will be the owner of a Steyr M95 Carbine I bought from JG Sales down in arizona, I know ammo is a little pricey but what else should i be expecting,

they have pretty good customer service, they even threw in a box of bullets for ten more bucks, sks was on the wish list but they didnt have any in stock

It was between the steyr or a mosin, I've never seen one of these straight pull carbines before, so opted for one, hell mosin are everywhere

sorry about the ****ty pics ipod camera and overhead light doesnt go together. ill try to take some at the range tommorrow morning, also post pictures of the grouping. Its alot better than what i was expecting, not in the best shape as you can see there is some pitting on the barrel, and the upper stock has a crack in it, the bore is decent, rifling itself looks okay but it appears there maybe some pitting in there as well, maybe shooting it tommorow before class will loosen some more **** in the bore up. take the bolt apart and putting it back together is simple, but installing it back into the receiver is a bitch ( i was exspecting this after watching some videos on you tube) the action is considerably stiff but im pretty sure its just the way it was designed. Tommorow ill post my results at the range also with some more pictures.

Also i was really surprised with the length of the gun, i knew it was gonna be short but i didnt think it was gonna be THAT short, i kinda like it , but since this is the first gun i have bought myself i fell in love as soon as i opened up at the gun shop.

so far i found out that it was imported by century arms inc (CAI) down in georgia

Didn't get to take any pics while up there, I was shooting at 100yrds, 15 out of 20 hit paper, but the first five were me figuring out my point of aim, I ended up having to aim about a foot low, the first five went flying right over the target. That thing kicks like a mule, and breathes fire like a damn dragon, the didn't have any misfires, the only problem was the magazine follower didn't push a couple of the rounds up all the way and ended up slightly denting a couple cases while feeding, I'm guessing the magazine spring has a little more gunk on it,
