Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Show me your MAUSERS and I'll show you mine

Sorry, no mercy. Hehehehehehehe........

P.S. I can't build one either, so I'm in the same boat.

Good. Misery loves company.

Have to say there are some absolutely gorgeous rifles on display in this thread.

Mine not so much, but it is functional and that's what I wanted. It was my first 600-yard clay pigeon shooter.

Interarms Mark X action, 6.5-06AI Krieger barrel, Timney trigger, Boyd stock, Burris FF-II 4.5-14x Ballistic Plex scope.



The dark black line in the center is the shadow of the 500-yard target boards. The lighter dark line above it is the shadow of the 600-yard boards.



This rifle has become the favorite of a couple daughters. They haven't mastered hitting clays at 600 but they consistently come very close. (Dumping the Ballistic Plex reticle for turrets, or zeroing one of the aim points at 600 would be a big help - interpolating between the lines is a bit iffy for clays.)

Any trees out There.

Here are my 2 mauser 66's, both in 30-06.

I did file in the thumb cut on my Mk-X as I have found it helps for quick loading. Now if I could only find some stripper clips to fit a .532 rim !

I'd like to think that if Finn Aagaard were still with us, that he would be enjoying this thread along with the rest of us.

Hello,

These 3 are my Mausers:

1- A DWM Original Sporting Rifle. A 7x57 "Plezier" like Mauser that never went to South Africa but was bought here in Argentina by my Great-grandfather. Still in use...!

2- A 1935 Mauser originally 7,65x54 Mauser but now a 7x57. All military: Action, stock and a Steyr 1912 barrel.

In the next post, my most recent adquisition:

3- A FN-Akha .30-06. Almost un-used by the previous owners.

Regards.

PH

This is the .30-06 FN-Akah

I like to think that Finn would be familiar with rifles like the two I built.

This thread is exactly what I've been looking for! I just received, for Christmas from my father, my late grandfather's 1895 Mauser sporterized in 243-a truly sentimental gift to receive. It's difficult to read the model number, possibly due to the rust that was removed when Flaig rebuilt it to 243, though I'm sure it says Model 50. I'm just impressed with how amazing everyone's rifles look..here's 2 different pics of mine:

Should really take a new pic now that I got her finished...

An old thread from last year - missed it then but here is a commercial mauser I've had kicking around for a few years. The stock has quite a bit of drop in it and would probably work better with open sights, but my aging eyes do better with a scope:
