Found one. Thanks for the help.

Stripped action is a receiver.
Action is everything to make it work. I know, others disagree.
Mauser made them too but they cost ten times more than a 38 Turk.
I have one; $400. Handguard extension removed.

are you gonna square it up.

Thinking about squaring it up or otherwise recontouring it.

I am out of pocket, at the moment, but I will check if I have a Turkish action. I think I do

I know you like to be obnoxious and say things intentionally to rile people up, maybe I am falling into that trap, but can you explain this statement?

It makes absolutely no sense.

A Mauser Banner Commercial large ring, small thread action; rare and very expensive.
Turkish made ones; not rare and a fraction of the price of an Oberndorf made one.
You know this.
Not a trap, this time.

It seems to me in your post you were discussing Oberndorf made Turkish receivers. Clearly I don't know this, because what you said originally does not match what you replied with and neither make any sense in any realm of reality.

FYI That square Mauser is a Dressel.

rich...Dressel never made an action..if that was what you were implying.

Mr M: the topic, as outlined by the OP, is/was LARGE RING, SMALLL THREAD Mauser 98. That, was to what I was referring.
And the OP even stated: I am not sure if anybody besides the Turks made these. I said, "Mauser made them".
I was answering his questions. Never said Mauser made Turkish Mausers.
Pretty clear.

Well, Mauser did make the Model 1903 Turkish contract rifle. Intermediate length, large ring, small shank with raised charging hump.

You are either so ignorant you don't understand that what you are saying is wrong, or your pride won't allow you to understand. Most likely pride, since you believe only you are the arbiter of fact.

Mauser made commercial large ring small thread actions, they are not worth 10 times a M38. If you are stupid enough to believe that I have several that I will sell you for a bargain price.

Mauser did make Turkish 1903 rifles which are a large ring, small thread, intermediate action.

Is it clear now?

Turkey was Mauser's largest and arguably best customer. If Turkey had not "believed" in Mauser, Mauser likely would have never existed to the extent that we know it.

Ok, so now I see your issue; it is the "worth ten times more" comment I made. Of course, that was an exaggeration, to make the point is that an Oberndorf one is worth much more than a Turk.
I know that Mauser made 1903 rifles the Turks, and that Turkey was an exclusive customer for many years.
I just assumed that the OP doe not want an intermediate.
Is it clear now? It was always perfectly clear. I should have said that Mauser didn't make the standard length (38).
This kind of thing is why Rod quit the forum.
Name calling is totally uncalled for.
I have been advised to stop posting so much because it makes people crazy.

How is it my issue you've stated 3 different things now?

Rod did not quit the forum because he frequently contradicted himself and then made excuses about why it was the other persons fault. Rod did not quit the forum because he was so conceited he thought he was the only person who could determine facts and facts only came from him.

So now facts hurt your feeler? I was betting pride over ignorance, and you proved me right. It's an If Then statement. Everything stated was factual. A judge should know that.

What's crazy is every time the problem is everyone else. What's crazy is you are so conceited that you can't recognize the problem is you.

If on the other hand you are trying to be funny as Jeffeosso seems to be implying, then I would recommend a few comedy classes, because you are seriously missing the mark.

Jeff...let's get on the same page...I was responding the Richj's comment that appeared to suggest Dressel made the action. i.e. "FYI That square Mauser is a Dressel"

I just read writing..(something like reading reading)

And..,Just what the hell does Forrest have to do with all this?

Dressl rifle picture is from a magazine. I found the picture also on their site. have no idea who OEMed it.

I'm guessing it's a war piece, front bridge looks long. Does one of the south american mausers contracts have a longer front ring or is it just an illusion.

Is this 24hr.Campfire-----OH NO! Its AR!

Hip

you made him an amazing 7x57 stalking rifle -- it is as close to perfect, in my eye, as I have ever seen -- i thought about putting every rifle i've ever made, all my tools, bits, chips, and machines in a pile, then burn them, because it was truly a master piece, to me, and i couldn't make anything even close - We called it forrest's weibe 7x57, in awe .. you didn't make the action, though, so offered as a comparison

Just for giggles....The following was pretty common way back when...a 1909 Peruvian (Oberndorf) large ring, small thread ..ring a little over 1-3/4" long

Thank goodness the beautiful crest has been damaged by Bubba ..most likely with a crescent wrench!
With that, I can feel free to "Customize & modify"
