Re: Mannlicher Schoenauer .458

I've got an old Greek MS that I sporterised using the original military stock about 20 years ago. Believe it or not there was enough meat in the rudimentary pistol hand to make it look like a classic sporter. I cut up a broken ebony elephant to make grip and fore-end caps - but left out the white spacers. Sheepishly I admit that the home-made spoon handle (I got Jack Millar to weld it on) did copy the rakish, swept-back look. I must check it out using Marrakai's method. As to the MS action: I love the magazine and the smoothness but wonder about the strength and slow locktime.
