Vintage Mauser barreled action with partial rib. I believe this to be an 8x57 but have not done a chamber cast and can’t guarantee it. The bore is definitely between .30 and .35 caliber. There are no markings on the action or the barrel. No serial number.

Includes a folding leaf sight, double trigger and full bottom metal. The bottom metal is missing the rear action screw and has been engraved with the previous owners information. I believe it could be sanded of but it is ugly as-is. The underside of the barrel has an area that has been ground out. It coincides with the swivel stud of the original stock. That stock is badly cracked so it was removed. Bore looks good with strong rifling.

Interesting…
It has the stripperclip slot in the side of the action, but the not the standard contour on the front receiver ring. Is this a military action, or is it a commercial action?

I think it is really cool and doing my best NOT to make an offer. Floorplate looks military and should be easily replaceable if you can't clean that one up. Barrel lug may have been for a mannlicher (Sp??) stock. If I were to offer, I would want the busted original stock as well.

Cool piece.

I can send the original stock. It is not a full mannlicher but longer than some of my other 98s.

Looking @ the bottom metal and flat in the bottom of the bbl affirms that some folks oughta be prohibited from handling anything sharper than a Kleenex.

I'm glad that deer stalker took it. I was about to get in trouble.
