My first used gun purchase was a spoterized gew98. Surplus ammo was cheep and I shot it a bunch until the fejen stock cracked. I bought a cheep plastic as a replacement. It's loose fitting and looks...well...cheap. the barrel has been chopped aprox 6in and sights soldered to barrel. I ordered a vz24 stock, gew rear sight, Persian front sight from numric. Should be able to make something that resembles millsurp. Barrel length should be close as the gew was 6in longer .
