Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles An important message from the Mauser Rescue Society...

Every day thousands of Mauser 98's are abused and or neglected. Some face the indignity of being chopped up by some dude named Bubba, others are left neglected on the used racks of gunshops across the world, while still others are improperly stored and face the very real danger or rampant corrosion.

There is something you can do to stop this madness. Join us at the Mauser Rescue Society and do your part to save perhaps the greatest bolt action rifle ever designed.

For the small price of scrounging around your local area, you too can save a Model 98 that desperately needs you. Just look at this, one of our many success stories.



This poor VZ-24 had been reduced to a receiver and bolt, but thanks to our friends at Copes, Brownells, ITD and McMillan; it is now enjoying a new lease on life.

You too could be a part of this important movement. All you need to do is pledge acquire an unaltered 98 in order to protect it from the cruel world and not to build with 98's that have survived in original military trim. Remember the lonely neglected Mausers of the world are counting on you.

Please feel free to post pictures of the 98's that you have saved in this thread and thank you for your time.

Just like those tv commercials with the battered puppies.(sniff)

A Mauser is a terrible thing to waste...

LOL

Interarms Mark X Whitworth .375 H&H.

I can hear that Sarah chick singing in the background! 😆😆😂😂

Hell yes! I have several.

Interarms Mark X .22-6mm.

Strictly speaking, those aren't "rescue" Mausers, nice rifles they may be. Kinda like Trump's kids putting on black face and street clothes and getting fed at the soup kitchen...

Well, more like Hillary telling us she is "for the little people" when she takes hundreds of millions of dollars from foreign governments and rich fat cats.

Humor really isn't your thing...

Bless you, Sir. You are doing the Lord's work.

Saving the world, one Mauser at a time.

A Mauser in need is a Mauser indeed.

Too bad a Mauser won't fit in a shoebox. It's that time of year when we could make a real difference to a poor, oppressed child in a third world country with the thoughtful gift of a fully loaded Mauser. Think of the many days your adopted child could spend lying in the grass on a knoll, waiting for rebel troops to wander carelessly by. Oh, it brings tears of joy to my eyes just picturing a 50 yard head shot on a Sudanese soldier by a helpless child in need of his or her own Mauser.

Fine cause you have taken up sir.

I have a rescue fleet lol

one for my wife in 257 Roberts, one for me in that chambering as well. and a 6.5x55 in progress.

have you hugged your mauser today?

A Mauser walks into a bar, the bartender says, "What is this, a rescue mission?"

Two Mausers are laying on a beach, one says to the other, "What, no beach towel?"

The other says, "I'm the most reliable bolt action firearm the world has ever known! I work in anything! Sand don't bother me none. Now hand me a Hefeweizen dipschtich.

Thanks for the positive response to our noble cause. Rest assured that we will continue to spend countless hours searching through gunshops and classified adds throughout the midwest helping every m98 variant that we find under valued and in great need. We value your continued dedication to the cause and will continue to update you with further success stories moving forward.

Thank you,

What an inspired cause. Hatari may have something for me to contribute at our annual birdfest in Feb but it may be a little unfinished and the transaction will require a token gift of brown liquor vice schnapps but the "spirit' is there .
