Man that stock is sweet. :D These are a blast to shoot, i think kicks a little more than an M38. The price of bullets will kick you in the gut. 8-) 8-) If you didn't get some clips with it, you'll want to find some so it is more than a single shot. 8-)

Nice carbine! 8-) The M95 is a small work of art, its really a beautiful little gun. The recoil of this little carbine will take you by surprise if you arent ready for it. It definately has a nice bark to it. Oh yes...and wait until you try to get that bolt back together. :roll:

Nice! I have one available at my local Gun Shop.. Real nice, wants $169 for it. I'll let it sit for a few more weeks & offer less... I may luck out.

That's a nice M95. I like the stock. I have one but it is one of those that they refurbed and its finish is about an inch thick! No, it OK I guess. Kicks pretty good too.

I always love handing it to someone that is not familiar with straight pulls and tell them to open the bolt...and watch.

They don't kick as much as my Spanish Mauser. I have both a '38 Hungarian and an '38 Austrian M95.

I can't believe I haven't bought one of the M95, or M95/34s yet. I think the only thing turning me off is the cost of ammo, plus it's a new caliber for me. I'll get one eventually though!
