Gents,
The purpose of this thread is to gather "good stuff" links that are sometimes difficult to find, or present wide ranging information into a single post. The idea is to not pin many threads to the top.

So, if you see something that needs to be here, as reference data, either make your post, quote the fella, or PM me and I'll post it.

thanks

M98 STANDARD LENGTH ACTIONS

I am going to group different actions by length, ring diameter, and barrel shank diameter. The first group will be Type I, these are the "most standard" Mausers. Probably 75% or more of all Mausers produced after 1898 will fall into this category. I am not going to list every model, that would take a book of it's own, but if your particular model is not listed, comparing the dimensions will place it into the correct category. So here are the dimensions for

Type I:
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.315
Recvr ring dia: 1.410 large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100 large shank

Some of the models that fall into Type I are:
Chilean M1912, Steyr
GEW 98, various mfr's
Brazilian M1908/34, Brno
VZ24, 98/22, 98/29, Brno
M1908 Brazilian, DWM
M1909 Argentine, DWM
M24/30 Venezuelan, FN
M1935 Peruvian, FN
Standard Modell, Mauser Oberndorf
K98k, various mfr's

Remember that the above list is not all-inclusive, the truth is, MOST M98 Mausers fall into this category.


Type II, standard length, small ring, small shank
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.315
Recvr ring dia: 1.300 small ring
Barrel shank dia: .980 small shank

This is pretty much a Czechoslovakian design, the main members of this group are the VZ33 and the G33-40, a commercial version is the VZ47.


Type III, standard length, small ring, large shank
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7,835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.315
Recvr ring dia: 1.300 small ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100 large shank

As you can see by comparing the receiver ring diameter and the barrel shank diameter, there is not a lot of meat left in this receiver! The main example is the Kar98, and for obvious reasons, it is not wise to rechamber these to a high pressure cartridge.


Type IV, standard length, small ring, small shank, long magazine.
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.400
Recvr ring dia: 1.300 small ring
Barrel shank dia: .980 small shank

These are mainly commercial models, they are identical to Type II, with the exception of a longer magazine to handle 30-06 length cartridges. Main examples are the Husqvarna commercial action, and the Brno ZG47.


Type V, standard length, large ring, large shank, long magazine.
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.400
Recvr ring dia: 1.410 large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100 large shank

This is a beefier version of the Type IV. It is typified by the late FN commercial actions.


M98 INTERMEDIATE LENGTH ACTIONS

This is actually a fairly small group of models, the amount of headaches these cause (when trying to find a part or stock) is way out of proportion to the number of models. Most of these will have some part of the action shortened to save weight. Starting off with Type VI:

Type VI, Oberndorf intermediate action
Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.165
Magazine length: 3.115
Receiver ring dia: 1.410, large ring
Barrel shank dia: .980, small shank

I call this the Oberndorf intermediate action, as they are the only ones who produced it. Commonly encountered models include:
1903 Turk
1909 Peruvian
1935 Argentine
Oberndorf Commercial

The 1903 Turk and the 1909 Peruvian also share some other qualities. They both have a very high clip bridge, and a long curved arm on the ejector box that puts pressure on a stripper clip loaded into the receiver, holding it in place. The 1935 Argentine and the Oberndorf commercial action do not have this.
This type has a longer than normal receiver ring, and a longer than normal cocking piece, with a shorter than normal bolt body, hard to figure where the weight savings come in!
The Oberndorf commercial action was also available in a small ring version, all other dimensions identical.


Type VII, FN24 and Yugo actions
Action OAL: 8.500
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.620
Bolt body length: 6.115
Magazine length: 3.232
Recvr ring dia: 1.410, large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100, large shank

This is the FN M24 action, and the Yugoslavian M48 series. I call this group the Yugoslavian intermediate action. There is also a Type VIIA, FN24 Mexican, see below.


Type VIIA, FN24 Mexican
Action OAL: 8.500
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.620
Bolt body length: 6.165
Magazine length: 3.232
Recvr ring dia: 1.410, large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100, large shank

I call the Type VIIA the Mexican large ring action. The only difference between the Type VII and VIIA is the length of the bolt body (0.050 difference).


Type VIII, small ring Mexican
Action OAL: 8.500
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.620
Bolt body length: 6.080
Magazine length: 3.118
Recvr ring dia: 1.300, small ring
Barrel shank dia: .980, small shank

The Type VIII has the shortest bolt body in this group. Common models are the Mexican M1910, and M1936. Either one can be found manufactured by FN or Fabrica de Armas in Mexico City.

LONG AND SHORT ACTIONS

Now we are into the expensive stuff! The long actions and short actions are commercial only. The long actions are divided into 2 types, the "British" type and the French type. The British type are not necessarily made in England, but are usually chambered for British cartridges, such as the .416 Rigby or .404 Jeffery. The French type is even longer than the British type, but the French type is actually made in France.

Type IX, British Type, aka M98 long, aka Commercial Magnum
Action OAL: 9.150
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.770
Magazine length: 3.640/3.840
Recvr ring dia: 1.410, large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.100, large shank


Type X, French Type, aka French Magnum, aka Brevex Magnum
Action OAL: 9.240
Recvr screws, center to center: 8.207
Bolt body length: 6.740
Magazine length: 3.900
Recvr ring dia: 1.500, X-large ring
Barrel shank dia: 1.141, X-large shank.

Notice that the French magnum is larger in every dimension than the British magnum, but the French bolt is shorter by .030"



Type XI, "True" short action, aka Commercial Kurz
Action OAL: 8.125
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.225
Bolt body length: 5.760
Magazine length: 2.725
Recvr ring dia: 1.300, small ring
Barrel shank dia: .980, small shank

These are very rare and expensive, and a collector's item on their own. Chambered for short cartridges such as the .250 Savage, they are so hard to come by that they are often made by cutting down a standard Type I M98 action. If you suspect you have one, look for a welded receiver just forward of the thumb cut. Bolts are usually welded just behind the aft end of the guide rib.

I think Jeff left out one Mauser action that I have 2 of and that are still fairly commonly available. The M38 Turkish Mausers. These tend to be known as Large Ring/Small Shank mausers.

Action OAL: 8.750
Recvr screws, center to center: 7.835
Bolt body length: 6.370
Magazine length: 3.315
Recvr ring dia: 1.410 large ring
Barrel shank dia: .980 small shank

The K. Kale marked Mausers are usually considered to be indigenously made by the Turks starting in the 1940s. Others are the ANSFA Ankara marked Mausers which typically were made for the Turks by the Germans or Czechs to the large ring small shank parameters. Many of the 1903 Turk mausers found now were modified to the M38 standard. These will usually be marked ANKARA and may have a small half circle cut out of the top of the front ring depending on overall action lenght.

The "M38" Turk is a bit of a misnomer as it seems to be our casual identifier for this group of actions and not an offical designation by the Turks. ANKARA M38 mausers may be found with partially ground off GEW, Czech and BRNO markings.

This is a schematic for the 98 large ring Mauser. Does anyone have similar schematics for the earlier Mausers, in particular for the Spanish 7mm Mauser?

HEAT TREATERS

Pacific Metalurgical Inc.

Blanchards Metals Processing Company


from Darcy Echols:
"..While attending the School of trades in Denver, We were told that any 98 rebarreled to a modern caliber should be re-carborized .030 to .040 deep so the surface hardness was around 36-40 RW C. The bolt a few point higher 40-44. They converted more than just two or three. Later when I opened my own shop I built 2 rifles chambered for 270 Win. and fell into the mind set that I now refer to as "how can you re-heat an action if you don't have a clue as to what it's made from" One was a 1909 and one a Radom. I had the rifles back in my shop years later and both had been set back enough that I had to set back the barrels the required amount clean up the lug seats and then sent both actions in to be recarborized and have not had a problem since(REMEMBER SAME REAMERS, SAME GAGES, SAME RIFLE). Do you know of anybody that has a 270 that won't try to get 3100 fps with a 130gr bullet? Ray sure won't leave the 404 at original speeds. The number of rifles I have had in my shop for some sort of repair or restoration that have set back is long indeed. This list would include the hallowed 98 square bridge actions, vz-24, 1909, 1908, and one FN in the white straight from the factory that I failed to check with the rockwell tester. I chambered the FN to 300 Win mag and it set back .015 in less than 200 rounds. It has since been hardened and to my knowledge has not move to the rear at all.Take it for what it's worth.

I have every 98 that I now use annealed dead soft, do 90% of the machine work that is required. Then it is sent in to be re-carborized as described and then finished up. Some 98 actions are probably OK to use as is the 1935 being one of them. But why take the chance and why waste all those end mills on an action that is glass hard on the surface or have to eat the repair when it shows up back in your hands.

I did have two 1909 action destroyed to get an idea of the steel composition. The results were as predicted and I now use the 1909 for any project that requires a 98 in a standard length Magnum, no I don't use them for the 375 H&H or similar lenght round as the action just gets to sloppy for my taste. Russell Wilkin the shop manager at H&H (ever hear of them?)requires all bolt rifles built on the 98 actions to be re-hardened."

This is a primer for people who struggle with their computer, like me. For all you gearheads, go read something else.

FIRST.
You need to download your pictures to your computer. Whether it is directly from your digital camera or via a scanner for print pictures. There are too many softwares/cameras to tell you how to do this. So, you will just have to figure it out.

If you don't already have a folder called "My Pictures" (or similar) then open a new folder just for your pictures. It is generally also good to open a new sub-folder in the My Pictures folder for each set of pictures, like "Zimbabwe 2005" or "AR Miscellaneous" or "Rifles. You get the idea. Better to set up a different folder for each set of pictures than try to sort through all of your pictures (after a while you will end up with so many pictures in My Pictures folder that it will be hard to sort them with out seperate sub-folders).

SECOND.
To Direct Link (post pictures on websites like AR) you need to have your pictures "hosted" on another website.

There are many image hosting websites. Some are free, some cost money.

The term "Direct Linking" means that you can post the URL (internet speak for "address" or "location") of a picture that is stored on one website to another website.(Direct Linking is sometimes called "Hot Linking" but there is a difference in that Direct Linking is allowed by the website where Hot Linking is posting a picture from a website where you don't have permission to do so.)

Some image hosting websites allow Direct Linking others do not. Read the website's rules to see if they allow Direct Linking. I know that Imagestation, Webshots and Yahoo do not allow Direct Linking.

How to choose an image hosting website? Again there are so many that it is hard to select one. Each one will have its own limitations and advantages.

I selected www.photobucket.com They are free but limited (in number of pictures and number of times those images can be accessed). Because of the number of pictures I host, I went ahead and got their unlimited Premium Account for $25.00/year.

I am sure there are other very good image hosting sites. I just don't have the time to research them.

You can start with a free account on Photobucket and upgrade later if you want.

From here on out, I will be giving instructions for hosting pictures on Photobucket. If you use another image hosting website, its procedures may be different.

THIRD.
Now that you have downloaded your images to your computer and opened an account with Photobucket, you need to resize/compress your images into a size that is easily downloaded (especially for those either downloading or viewing pictures on a dial-up connection versus DSL or other faster internet connection). [I used to use Imagestation and they automatically resized your images to the proper size. So check with your image hosting site and see if they automatically resize].

From here forward I am going to use the following abbreviations:

"LC" means place your cursor on the item and single Left Click on your mouse.

"PB" means Photobucket

NEW *** NEW -- Photobucket now has a new feature. You can download photos and Photobucket will resize them for you. At the bottom of the Upload Images & Video box, click on "Uploading Options". Then click on "Message Board (640 x 480)". When you download your photos, they will be resized to 640 x 480.

OK, how to resize/compress your pictures? You should have some kind of Photo Editing software on your computer. There are so many different softwares that I can't give you the exact steps. But your goal is EDIT your pictures to approximately 448 x 336 pixels (approximately)[no larger than 640 X 480]. My software has several settings that allow you select the size for Web Pages.

You will want to save your original picture so you can make print photos from it. So, open a new sub-folder for your resized/compressed pictures. For example, I download pictures of my rifles from my camera to the My Pictures sub-folder called "Rifles". I then also open another sub-folder called "Rifles-web". COPY (do not "Move") the specific images you want to post from your Rifles folder to your Rifles-web folder.

Open your Image Editing software and the select your Rifles-web folder so those images can be edited. On my software you first select the image by LC on it, then LC on "Edit Pictures" then you have the choice of Resizing or Compressing (on my software you can select either one). Then select the size, my software has several options for sizes. Then SAVE the edited image. On my Image Editing Software, you can also select all of the images and resize all at once.


***Some of our Members have suggested some free image editing software (freeware) that is available on the internet. I have not used any of these programs, so you may want to research them and see which is best for you: PAINT.net IRFANVIEW Also see this post Image Resizing

FOURTH.
We now have uploaded our images to our computer and resized/compressed them.

We have opened an account with PB.

We now need to upload our images to PB.

Step 1.
Add Sub Album to your PB account. Name it "Rifles-web" and LC on the "Create" box.

Step 2.
LC the Rifles-web album to open it. It will say "Photo album is empty".

Step 3.
Either LC on the Browse button if you want to add one image or LC on the "Submit Multiple Pictures" and then LC on the number of pictures you want to upload.

Step 4.
A window should open up and you need to open your "My Pictures" album and select it so that so that your pictures show up in the window. Then LC on your Rifles-web sub-album and LC on the "Open" box.

Step 5.
LC on an image of your rifle (it should highlight it) and then LC on the "Open" box. The window should close and you then LC on the "Submit" box on PB.

FIFTH.
Now you will see a picture of your rifle with 3 boxes below it. Url box, Tag box and Img box. [For posting pics to AR all you need is the Img box, so I LC on the blue box "Account Options" and then LC on "No" next to both the "Display Url" and "Display Tag", then LC on the "Update" box.]

The picture you see is only a "thumbnail" size picture. To see the actual picture that will post on AR, LC on the thumbnail. [My browser won't allow me to use the Back arrow to get back to the previous screen when I am in PB, so I have to LC on the word "Rifles-web" located in the upper left hand corner of the screen].

SIXTH.
You need to have two windows open, one with AR and one with your account in PB.

Type a response on AR and where you want a picture to appear you just need to Copy and Paste the info in the Img box on PB.
You Copy and Paste by LC on the Img box, that should highlight the info in the box (on my computer it turns blue). Then, with your cursor in Img box Right Click. A window will open up, LC on "Copy".

Now all you have to do is Right Click in your post on AR and then LC on "Paste".

Here is a link to a PDF of an out of print book that someone (from Texas if you can believe that Big Grin (some of you will get the joke)) sent to me when I still lived in AZ, and he allowed me to scan a copy and send the book back to him.

Mauser M98 & M96 by R A WALSH.

This is a link to a cloud storage I use - you may have to create an account to download the file but I have been using the site for years and have never had a problem, and it is free!

https://app.box.com/s/0d37jgk1...ttad28kh0qrw85zk9m7t

I've given copies of it to a few friends over the years and thought this would probably be a great place to share it. I swear to you it is a safe site and safe file. You can ask RIP - he will vouch for me.

Hope you enjoy the reading.

Thank you,

Karl

For your shop wall - a 2D drawing from a 3D model that I started working on a few years ago - one of these days I will finish it...



This is a link to a full sized PDF of the drawing: https://app.box.com/s/qleyb2zw...l6dujfg4qdq3h1hk1y28 you can send the PDF to Kinkos (or the like) and have it printed full size).

So, if you see something that needs to be here, as reference data, either make your post, quote the fella, or PM me and I'll post it.

thanks


I have been looking for just such a site or forum when I found this one. BUT much to my surprise a lot of the links are broken. Confused
Have you let this forum die or is it just the info is no longer available? Frowner
