I have done a lot of projects based on the 98 Mauser but nothing on the Mexican. A little rundown please. I have a 1931 Mexican, so marked and another that has been surface ground. I also have what I think is the Knurled cocking piece that came separately. What action did that fit on and did they all take the 98 bolt shroud, sping and firing pin? One of these actions has the two vent holes in the left side the other does not. Thinking of offering them for sale, neither has bottom metal.

There were 2 Mexicans, 1910 and 1936. Both intermeiate 98s. The 36 used the knurled cocking piece. There also was the FN M24.
Bolt body on the 10 and 36 is 6.080", 6.165" on the 24. So, actually, that makes 3 Mexicans.

Jim 36 has vent hole, knurled cp, and the hole in the extractor and notch in the bolt rim to match. Also a deeper thumb notch then the 1910. Other than that they are about the same. Last original cp I sold went for $150 btw.

Craigster, isn't the 24 bolt the same size as the fn intermediates? Same as the Yugos except for the safety breech? I never handled one in person.
