a genuine MAUSER action that might be worth dinging up into a fine custom rifle

Yea, but all of those things together might bring $100. Also, that bottom metal looks an awful lot like 1909 Argentine bottom metal, which makes it worth $75 or more!

GSP722wrf, $75 for the argi bottom metal . Wow. I just passed on 2 complete argentine mausers for $150 a piece cause they both had bolt face primer pits.
I must be a cheap, picky SOB

45ottoI am watching that one also, I'm afraid it will quickly be out of my price to value limit.

Everybody on this AR board is CHEAP.
By the way, pits on bolt faces are easily welded up with a tig welder. Where are those two Argies located, and will the seller make a deal on them?

22WRF. the military Argis are gone. I have a tig welder but no mill or lathe. I scored a pre 64 featherwieght 308 and a 1950 highpower 270 for 2ski apiece from that shop so im happy

333_OKHIs this not a "Banner" Mauser. It appears to have the banner on the front ring. Now that being said, where did the other parts come from?

I wish they still had the original part! That would make a nice period rifle. Timney trigger with Sunny Hill shroud?
