Hi, I just got my new rifle, a really nice old Mauser M98 in the likewise old caliber 9x57 Mauser. From the seller I got the information that it was an old Mauser Obendorff (the original ). But upon further check (i.e. when I got the gun in my hand) it seems that it is manufactured by Geco, not Mauser. Geco - I have seen that they do pistols and revolvers. Based in Berlin I have also heard. But I am unable to locate them. When I search the web there seems not to be a official homepage. Google can not find it at least. Are there anyone here that can help me, Webpage, e-mail, snailmail address, telephone number? Anything is welcome. Best regards Honour | ||

I have a box of .45 ACP ammo manufactured by Geco in the early 1980s. I never knew they were a gunmaker! | |||

Honour I have only seen Geco pitol ammo lately. I think that the brand names Geco and DWM are owned by Dynamit Nobel or RWS Cheers / JOHAN | ||

Alf pretty much gave you the story. Check your bore. I have a Geco made rifle with the barrel marked 9x57 however, it is in reality a 9.3x57 which suits me fine. Geco seems to have made far more .22's than sporting centerfires. Mine reminds me of the old Husqvarna sporters only with a better stock. In other words, a nice rifle. Aut vincere aut mori | |||
