It looks like the C&R market is going to get a much needed boost.

too lazy to watch an interview (I subscribe to FW, but I don't watch these, they are too boring).... what specific firearms can we look forward to?

Initially it looks like a bunch of k98 style Mausers.

I got an email from Classic about a big surprise. I get at least one from them seemingly every day.

If It got Ian excited enough to go out there then there is going to be a lot of good stuff. There's going to be a ton of British, German, French, Italian firearms as well as other countries mixed in. There should also be one off's and possible prototypes thrown in but the owner if IO said he keeps a lot for his own collection. It took 8 years to get all of this into the USA and it's a SHIT TON of small arms.

I bet AIM surplus will also have a good bit since they have been selling IO imported rifles for years. Classic arms pushes all of IO's in house made garbage so that's why they get the mention in the video. The IO owner said you will also be able to buy directly from IO as well.

They suck and often over grade and over price their C&R firearms. From what I understand they have gotten better but it's hard for some myself included to deal with them especially when we used to deal with the original owner who was freaking awesome. After he sold and retired the next few owners were trash.

They seem to always be on the high end of the price scale for surplus rifles, and most of their pistols.

It wasn't that way with the previous owners, they were awesome. They used to have great prices on surplus guns and anything AK. Good prices and selection of surplus ammo too.

They always had jokes and funny stories on the homepage. There were also links for all kinds of printable targets.

That's my drift.

Where were they kept, at the bottom of the ocean? Pretty beat up looking.
Should have kept my 98, had to pay bills though

Have you not been following the thread? They were stored in a tin shack in Africa (no, really) stacked up like cord wood.
