Hi Guys,
It's realised that could be a how long is a piece of string question, but what is a good condition, Original Oberdorf Mauser, type B; single trigger with the floor plate lever, in calibre 10.75x68 worth? It comes with 30 rounds of S&B ammunition.
Thanks.

I am probably a poor choice to answer, but depending on what it is (guild gun, cigerette gun, prewar, postwar) i would say from 1100-3500 .. it really does matter which of these.. for example, a cigarette gun COULD be the normal low end, as they could be made from a questionable action, in someone's garage, etc etc...

I sold the one on the bottom for $2250, turned down $2800 for the one on top:

Between 2-3K depending on condition. It could be worth more if in SSB or DSB configuration.

It's just like the one in the bottom of flas' photograph.
How long ago did you sell yours fla3006?
Thanks.

Almost 2 years ago. It was 1914 vintage, excellent, all matching all original, probably was worth a little more, sold the first day on GunsAmerica. I have turned down offers for the other (1934 vintage) because I prefer the hinged floorplate and barrel contour and I like to shoot it. Recoil cross bolts are not original.

Hi, What do SSB and DSB stand for? Thanks.

Thanks for that fla3006.
The one I have been offered is at $US2,050, which looks like a good buy.

The top one looks like a single stage trigger and the bottom one a two stage trigger, is that right?

That would be a good buy if it is unaltered, all original and excellent or better and the bore is bright & sharp. SSB & DSB refers to single square bridge and double square bridge, which would double or triple the value.

FLA3006,

what loads are you using in your 510WX?
any cast bullet?

thanks,

Rich

I just sold a Model B for $2500.

Gentlemen,
Thank you for your comments.

It wasn't untill after posting that I noticed the missing n, no matter it didn't prove problematic.

I have been wrong before, I know because my wife tells me so.

For hunting, particularly dangerous game hunting, beware of Mausers with that big, typically German, exposed floorplate opening levers-it is too easy for them to get pushed open accidentally in thick stuff and dump your magazine contents all over the place!
