I like the E.G. Or R. I built this Mauser in .308 a while back. Put a brand new Nikon Pro Staff on it and never shot it. .308 2 groove barrel. Sporterized military stock. Mix of CZ, Turkish, And other parts.

Doesn't have to Be a collector. I'm probably going to put nice wood on it, so D&T is OK too. I'm going to hunt it. I had an 1899A a long time ago and let it go. Stupidly.

That's how this is. Beautiful action. No wood. I wish I had an original stock for it, but I need the cash to just get the action first.

The Mauser was built from a bare action by me. It was built as a truck gun. I faced the action on a mandrel, and so just 2 turns on the bolt face lapping tool, a few laps with compound on the lugs. Bolt handle forged, and then hand chambered in .308. I set it back a few thousandths. Desoldered the sights, chopped an inch or 2 off the barrel to remove some slight pitting, and give it a nice crown. Closes with only the slightest slightest tension on factory federal, and Winchester rounds. It was hammered down with between 0.002"-0.003 of crush. Simple weaver 2 piece bases, low swing safety, medium rings, and a brand new never fired on Nikon Pro Staff. The stock is a sporterized Turk I did myself. The bolt is raw, the action is parkerized and the bottom metal is painted with the 600* BBQ grill paint.

I just never shot it. I built an AR, and a Winchester SXP defender, and got a sig 938 with a 10/22 to boot. I want a 99 for next years deer season, and I want the Mauser to go somewhere it will be put to use.

Thanks for looking.
