I have not been collecting Brno's for as long as you, only the last few years for me, but I also have a deep interest in the rifles.

In my personal opinion, they are one of the finest production Mausers ever made, if not the finest. IMO, I would go so far as to say they are the finest production rifles ever produced for the money!

My wife and I are also planning to go to Czechoslovakia as my Grandmother is from there and my Grandfather is from Austria, these grand parents are on my Mother's side. I wish to obtain my citizenship for these countries as well as for Italy as both of my Grandparents on my Fathers side are from Italy.

Again I wish to thank you for all the information you have provided. I have made copies of everything for future reference.
