UFIXEM guns from Century International Arms

Has anyone recieved the UFIXEM guns from Century International Arms? Have anyone had much luck with these guns? I just got two Turk 93 mausers from Century Intermational Arms for $19.87 each. They where really dirty and looked horrendous, but after disassembly and a good cleaning they're not bad. One turns out to be in fair condition and the other is in good condition. Both should be decent shooters. I'm wondering if the SKS rifles in the UFIXEM catagtagory are decent at all?

    Read the fine print. U-Fix-ems can be missing parts and there is no return privelege. They also say that U-Fix-ems are "a roll of the dice."I have bought one, a Marlin .22 for parts and found the barrel bent and any usable parts already removed.Sounds like you did better than I did.

    Ya, the mauser with the shiney bore had a bent barrel. I did manage to straighten it by puting one end on the floor and the other on a car axel and carfully jumping on it. Darn barrels are like a spring. I still need to test fire the rifles to see if they shoot straight. I figure that the turk 93 mausers are worth so little to begin with that C.I.A. would rather sell them cheap then to clean them up.
