Left Hand Mauser Action Makers
There are two German based �smiths who are producing reproduction double and single square bridge 98 actions in right AND LEFT hand.

One is called Ritterbusch and they have a web site. http://www.jagdgewehre-ritterbusch.de/html/en/khr.htm

The other is caller Johansen (spelling?).

Has anyone got any experience of either of these actions? Or any contact details for Johansen?

Thanks.

Ray Atkinson thinks very highly of Reimer Johannsen's work.

BTW, Johannsen's rifles cost more than a Dakota.

Deerdogs,

I am interested that they will fit the M70 style safety on either the left side of the action or the right side of the action.

I seem to recall that "Rigby", now in California, is using Johannsen actions in their high grade bolt guns. They may have some info.
