I've never bought from Samco before, but they've got a pretty good selection, including bent bolts, even with the optional accessory kit comes out to less $$

I see they have barreled actions...I might see a nice mauser sporter in my future. When these were re-arsenaled, most got new M48 barrels...
I know the one I bought had never been issued/fired: the rear action screw was too long (bolt wouldn't cycle) and the safety didn't work (needed tweaking as mauser safeties often do).

The surplus ammo is about gone, but you can get Prvi for about $14/box from AIM (when they have it in stock).
