Thanks for all of your input guys.

It appears that after getting past one layer in this onion... there's another... and another, etc...

The problem is that, as these are based on the Mauser '98, these include parts from "military weapons."

On the other hand, they clearly have been remanufactured and sporterized to make "sporting rifles."

For importation into the US, the question becomes which of the two does the ATF consider it... "military weapon" or "sporting rifle?" It's a little grey at this point (based on their definitions) but shouldn't take too long to get sorted out one way or the other.

Finally, they are not as inexpensive as one might think. Compared to a new OTC Remchester, etc... I believe you're getting better quality in the BRNO, but they are still realatively unknown as a common brand in the US.

Shipping, duties, taxes, insurance, etc... they would have to retail in the $850 - $900 range.

How does that sit with you?

PS - as for the suggested improvements; a 3-position safety is out of the question... but a straight comb stock could be had for about $50 more.
