Chetaf

That is a beautiful rifle! Let me know when you are done with it.... so I can have a turn.

Terry,

Is it just luck to find and old barrel like that?

Will do. The best part is that it is surprisingly light too. Only 7.75 pounds loaded and scoped.

They come up for sale every now and then. I bought that one off ebay back when you could buy and sell gunparts on there. I bought another on gunbroker and found another one on accurate reloading.

Nice 94/14 !
I have it's twin, all original with bayo. Picked it up at a flea market in Vermont for 75 bucks a long time ago. I even have the sling.

Darn, just when I thought this thread was fading away.
Beautiful rigs guys.
Here's one more, a BYF-44 I've had for a while. Bought the barreled action on a real bad Bubba stock and my friend took it from there.
8x57 original stepped barrel...

yea, this one is completely matching numbers, including the stock/handgard. the nose cap was also stamped to match. it does have the muzzle wart though...

My contributions showing two of my sporting Oberndorf Mauser rifles. Both are factory original, but reflecting field use.(Apology that the photo quality is not better.)

BRNO in 257 Roberts

A question on the Oberndorf sporters: Were they equipped with that blasted barleycorn front sight?

ummm, number 2, please.

This thread is killing me--after seeing Chetaf's, I guess the 257 VZ33 is going to have to shed its synthetic and go wood...

Even with all them junk and wore out parts you still have probly 50 to 75 dollars in it. So I'll give you one chance to double your money.

General observation that there are some very nice rifles shown in this thread!
Joe: The typical Oberndorf Mauser(OM) sporting rifle front sight was a dovetailed bead set on a ramp. There were exceptions. Production quite early in the century and also just after WWI sometimes did utilize the military style inverted �V� post sight. Such was also common on the Model �C� sporter, a competitively priced quasi-military style OM sporting model.

Below is a typical bead sight affixed to the barrel of this OM type "A" barreled action awaiting a suitable OM stock. Manufactured in 1930, it is in transition from the original 10.75x68 to the more popular and useful 404 Jeffery (10.75 x 73).

Here's opne that's kinda unique. It's a BRNO 21H from the shop of Paul Dressel.

I wish you all would quit posting stuff like this.

I don't have the money for a Mauser project right now and all these great rifle pictures are driving me apeshitt.

Have a little mercy on a brother Rifle Looney.
