I need some help in finding a fair market value on two Mauser actions. The first: a pretty much stock 1910 Mexican Mauser, unmatched, no pitting. The second: a made in Berlin 1909 Argentine Mauser, two position swing safety, aftermarket bolt handle, Dayton-Traister trigger, Leupold one piece scope base mounted - action is blued, '06 bolt face and unaltered rails - no pitting and the gunsmithing was professionaly done - it is ready for a barrel. As long as I am at it, what would a 1936 Mexican Mauser cocking piece and a bolt shroud complete with an installed two position swing safety be worth? I am going to try to get by without parting with the actions, however, if it comes to that, I need to know what to ask for them. Thanks for your help.

Earlier this year I sold a Mexican Action such as you describe for $250.00. they are desireable as they are a good small ring action. A year ago I sold a 1936 Mexican complete bolt for $85.00 (the receiver was bad). As for the 1909 Mauser, I have tried on many occasions to sell one very much like you describe with no takers at $300.00. This is becasue when dealing with customizing mauser rifles most people like to do the work theirselves or direct their smith as to exactly what they want as opposed to what you have already done.
