Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Show me your MAUSERS and I'll show you mine

I once turned down a nice commercial FN factory sporter for $350.

STOOPID STOOPID STOOPID!!!

.275 Rigby:


6.5x55 that I stocked:


6.5x64-Mark X, NECG three position safety, LW barrel, Brown Precision stock:


Husqvarna 456 that I sold to SH:


7x64 in a Brown Precision:


Found this short-fat Mouser on the road when he was leetle:

Looks like he's ready to sink those teeth into your hand if you tickle him one more time.

Hey Phil, do you have a history on that Oberndorf '06?? How did it come into your life, if I may ask. We had 4 Oberndorf Mausers come thru a local shop several years ago, but they had been " modified " to the point that they were not attractive at all.

He's a big baby. He's never even snarled at anyone--that's his feed me grin. Obviously works very well.

Karnis,

Nice selection, but I really like the 275 Rigby.

I was drooling over one at the SCI show last month. (They made me move on.)

YOU SUCK!

Two rifles built on G33/40 actions. Top one is a 7x57 built by Al and Roger Biesen together. Bottom is a 6.5x55 done by Roger more recently.

My goodness, that's some fine looking hardware!!

NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART

Here is an intimate closeup, warts and all, of Ole Ugly my all time favorite.

You do put some miles on a Mauser.

IIRC, you did an article on Ole Ugly a few years back.

It's purdy

Here is a Mark Stratton/Chic Worthing Mexican M98 in 7X57 with some pretty decent wood.

That's not quite as beautiful as Phil's 458, but it's still really pretty.

Chic does great work!

Spectacular. May I borrow one?

You've been "lured" out . Between you, Woodsy & Tony, I'm not sure I could stand many more pictures. Those are some of the best I've ever seen. Perfectly executed work is something to behold. American gunsmiths/stocksmiths rule when it comes to customizing mousers.

The old adage: "If I have 'splain it to you, you wouldn't understand." applies in spades.

Awesome. I suppose that one feeds perfectly, eyeball to sights are spot on, it shoots right where you point it and in general, it never fails. I imagine it's hardly ever left behind.

You can spot Biesen a mile away. Looks nice!
