Got my M48 and M1938 in today from WGA. I looke dthem over and cleaned them up a bit and I am VERY Happy!!! These were the first 2 I have bought with my C&R. Bores are Very nice took some cleaning but no pits or anything and bullet test on muzzel shows 1/4 inch of bullet. 38 has mismatched handguard and wood was VERY dry but BLO fized that and darkened it up. Blueing on these 2 is like 90% or better. the M48 saftey wiggles just a little in the fire position. I ordered it in VG condition but I have yest to figure out why it isn't better than that. When I get my camera figured out I'll post pics. Still waiting on the VZ-24 to arrive. Hope I'm as pleased with it. Hardly any Cosmo on these. It was worse on my Garand from CMP and that wasn't all that bad. I'm rambeling because I'm so excited and Wife says I talk about guns too much so Can't tell her.
 
Good to hear. I haven't got my C&R yet but I have the hookup locally. :p

The choice rifles of the MilSurp really put alot of the new crap to shame and for far, far less $$$.

Can't wait to see the pics!
 
Cool! Congrats on the purchase.
My M48 likes Turk 1943 & Romanian.
My CMP M1903 gets Korean ball. Have you tried that in the Garand?
 
Congrats on the new purchases. My M48A was suppose to be in last Friday... Still waiting. I'm know planning on getting my C&R and getting a few more pieces.
