if you are asking which mauser has a pulling cocking knob, that is the 1936 mexican mauser.

BUT

it only LOOKS like a springfield bolt, as the mexican mauser is a solid firing pin and it is NOT NOT NOT safe to have a hot round with the firing pin down, as the firing pin is ON the primer.

Can the Mex pin arrangement be converted somehow to have a safety shoulder?

I guess using one on a 500 Jeffery is out! Thanks for the word of caution.
