I had one of these cheap 308's a long time ago as one of my first, if not the first, 308 I ever owned. Mine was bought already rusted and sporterized for like $100. I shot the crap out of it and then upgraded when I heard that these Mausers were not safe. Now I see this article from 1988 and I wonder. Anybody else love or hate the 1916? Have any bad experiences?
