I posted this in hunting rifles but thought I would post it here too. Thanks in advance for any info you can help provide about this rifle and what it might be worth. Regards, Josh https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbth...lp_identifying_action_on_cus#Post9037167
Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

5 years ago I was buying commercial Mausers for $300 and passing at $400, and throwing the stock, barrel, and scopes away.
Then I would build them into a custom for me.
Since then the value of commercial Mausers has gone up.

Josh, it appears to be a Santa Barbara commercial Mauser action. The P sequence Serial number..... Quite a few were used for custom builds during that period. They were also sold as kits and finished rifles. Your MIL's is a Nice looking basic custom. The 358 isn't all the rage now so I'm not sure it'll enhance the value. My guess is $500 max, but be prepared for less.
