Guys I will admit upfront I am no mauser expert. I picked up a mauser that was rebarreled with a Douglas 7x57 mauser. The top of the receiver is marked with a Mexican logo and 1931. I am assuming this is a small ring mauser and figuring a 93 or 95 stock will work. Can anyone verify that before I order a stock? I will say it is a really nice action. Excited to try it out.

More than likely your Mauser is a M1936 Mexican Mauser. I dont think a 93 or 95 stock will match up

Mexicans are M98 intermediate length, 8.500. Small ring = 1.300, large ring = 1.410

Wow, 20 questions? Lol. OP, a pic would make it so much easier to ID. Lotsa folk have trouble differentiating between Spanish and Mexican Mausers. Seen Belgians identified as Mexican by those "in the know." Telling us the diameter of the front ring and that too will help.

Measure the diameter of the receiver ring, and the distance between the screw holes on the bottom of the receiver.

It is a cock on close action so I was assuming a 1910 action and hoping a mauser 95 stock would work.

A Swedish Ma user stock is needed most likely. What I used for my Mex barreled action.

If it is a cock on close action, it ain't a 1910.

What z1r sez.
So now I'm confused. OP stated that it is stamped 1931 yet is COC. Both of my 1931 stamped are COO.

Ok. I am an idiot. It is cock on opening. The center to center distance between the action screws is 7.620 or 7 5/8”. So is this a 1910 Mexican action? And will a 95 mauser stock work the best with a little fitting? Will a 96 stock work as well?
Thanks for the Help guys and sorry for giving false information above about the cocking.
