1B,
I stand corrected. You were right, it IS an aftermarket barrel. The Manchester, England is stamped on the left side of the reciever opposite of the bolt.
I can't rember what the name of the barrel is, it was somthing I have not heard of...ever.
When I went back to see the gun again, he said someone else offered him $400 bucks for it and told him I get first refusal. Not sure I want it for 400, but I said I'll let him know by Friday. Don't really need it, just sounded like a good deal to me. Not so much anymore.

the action is worth more than that....here's a classic Mauser 7x57 Muddywaters had built on an older Mark X action:

Brian, yes, THE Muddywaters (of the Campfire), who also happens to be my father. This one (c. 1944, Solomon Islands): Not this one:
