	I'm finished with my project in Colorado and home cleaning up my garage and there are a couple of strange boxes out there. My wonderful wife put them up for me until I had the time to look them over. One is a nice pre 98 single shot schutzen German in origin 47 1/2 inches OAL with a barrel of 28 1/2 and it is a take down one and was shipped in parts in a big box. Barrel top is marked Paul Jung to marks I saw with a quick look see were a 7.5mm and Guss Stahl, barrel steel I think and one other mar of Paul Jung Peorzhiem Prima, nice tang sight with eye piece. When I get a chance I hope to take some pictures of the new one. I purchased this back in March and have not looked until now. And they are now sending me off to Texas for a pipeline project East of Midland out in the middle of nowhere, our project is 100 miles long of pipe and pump stations.

	Hey Rafter, not sure what that is? It may be I do not know all the particulars yet. They said it is 70 miles due east of Midland out in the boonies and then our project starts and runs 100 miles headed towards Dallas I think in that direction, and then there are supply lines running 60 miles on the sides of this line. Big project.

	I found some pictures from the auction house that I purchased it at. Looks like a very expensive one. As soon as my youngest son saw the pictures and said Dad, that one must be mine it has my initials on it.

	Nice old rifle. Welcome to God's country. Frequent gun shows Midland- San Angelo- Lubbock area with an occasional single shot that I of my friends have overlooked. If you get as far East as Brownwood, look me up. Texas recognizes most state's carry liscences, handy with so many undocumenteds around. Also some oil patch folks arent exactly regular church-goers.

	I'm going to lay the whole thing out and get a few better pictures of it. And then sell it. I have too many now, hard to believe but I'm running out of room and need moeny for a different project too. If anyone is interested let me know. Mike

	Mike, what happened to your Borchardt and Aydt projects? I know you been working but I cant help wondering about your projects. Joe.

	Hi Joe, good to hear from you, I hope you are doing well. The Aydt is here at home but no chance of getting it finished right now. The Borchardt is still with Joseph Losito, Joe had some serious medical issues and is getting back to work. He has the triggers done correctly which I understand is hard to do but he is good at it. Here soon it will be shipped home and set until I get a chance to take a break. I did 9 months in Colorado and only home every other week and now it seems that I will be going to Texas here in a month or two. With my company who knows, we are having Obama Care difficulties like others. It will not effect me though as I'm retired Military and on that insurance thank god I was smart and stayed in for 20. And I have another project besides the Borchardt and others. Too many guns and no time to have fun. I have not been out shooting for a couple of years now. Last time I shot an old girl like a martini was in Colorado when I was working in Fruita at the park doing a road project for the Feds. I have shot a few modern guns since then but not even enough of those. My son has a nice M4 style M16 clone that I shoot once in awhile, and I have my M14 clone with the LRB receiver and a krieger match heavy barrel for target work. My kids get a kick out of my tight groups with the M4.

	Nice rifle! My guess is that it will cleanup pretty well. Sadly the sight is not the original one for the rifle. It IS an original sight, but its a mismatch for that specific rifle. If it were, the base of the original sight would be a near seamless fit to the boss on the tang. The post would be a tight slip fit down into the hole in the boss. Hopefully the square key heads on the adjustment screws have not been buggered up with pliers. It's not uncommon to find one that way. Your are fortunate you have a sight at all. The original sights got separated from the rifles easily. first they were usually carried in the shooters kit case on the way to and from the range. just like many of us carry our scopes in separate cases. Unfortunately far too many of the original shooters were buried in far off places or in POW camps when the allies occupied and started disarming the german civilian population. The rifles were confiscated/turned in but the sights usually got left behind.
