Hey everyone, I thought I'd share a pretty interesting rifle a local gunsmith here makes based on the Mauser 98.
At the core of this system is a Mauser 98 with a shortened magazine box, still holding three rounds, and a special lower trigger allowing for a very light and trim Mauser stalking rifle, coming in right around 6lbs, as far as I am aware this makes it one of the lightest CRF rifles currently on the market. I was wondering what you all think of these fine rifles. Doing a lot of Jack O'Connor reading recently, it seems like a real treat of a rifle with the only downside being a hefty price tag.
Anyways, here are some pictures:
Also made in the .375 Magnum:
