Hi all i recently came into possession of a Mauser sporting rifle,double triggers schabel forend express sights a nice old rifle with a smooth action that needs some TLC,what i need is help in identitying the model,how old and maybe what it's worth.There is no model designation or caliber markings,just a couple of crowns and 4 letters,you can see by the pics that will be posted in a day or two.A buddy is posting them for me.Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance. onthosoo7@hotmail.com | ||

it looks like a typical (cigarette mauser) definetly looks like a lot of rifle and most are made very well would be expensive to duplicate by todays gunsmiths some are 318. bore and others are 323. bore ive had a few that look close to what you pictured they sell anywhere from 300-900 they are mostly made from military mauser actions of large and small ring do not confuse this with an original mauser sporter from the oberndorf factory ............paul | |||

Can't see it, but I'd guess it has the stepped barrel too, no? Also absent is the classic lever release on the floor plate. I'd guess this is a classy old guild gun built by a long forgoten smith. Get the head space checked and have the barrel slugged, then if all is well shoot away. | |||

Hi guys thanks for your input very much appreciated.here is a bit more info,the barrel is not stepped just a nice taper from action to muzzle.There is also a schnabel tip,and it looks like it had a sling swivel siver soldered to the barrel,unfortunitly the swivel is missing.The front sight has a brass or gold (LOL) bead on a 3"ramp.i can send pics if you like with your email thanks. onthos | |||
