PP marked 7. The stuff marked 8mm Mauser is lawyer-loaded, but the gr. Match therein is a good start for GP and reloading, although it's looking pretty skimpy at the usual vendors for it.
Great advise. It is a new gun to me, so just looking for something close to what Fritz shot back in when it was made, while leaving the least fouling. I have heard of the Yugo and Privi being good.
I don't reload. Mar 3, 1, Harrisburg, PA. There were 2 different 7. It's scarce but still pops up at the wrong time. NukeMMC said:. Sep 7, 29 0 www. When the Duke of Ratibor called for hunters to contribute scoped rifles for the fatherland, many of those rifles were incapable of handling the S patrone.
The rifles were marked to indicate the cartridge they were suitable for. By , most of them were withdrawn from service. Show hidden low quality content. The others above have pretty nicely spelled out what to look for with the bore. One safety thing I'd consider is getting the headspace checked, especially if the bolt doesn't match. A gunsmith can do this or if you plan on buying more Mausers you can invest in a set and do it yourself.
Also, some online outlets have Yugos fresh out of the crate. While you may not know what you will get as they grab them out of a crate, I do know that while on the high side Aim has matching Yugo M48s which probably aren't a bad starter Mauser as a shooter or in a collection as while Yugos are common, having a matching gun not sure if they are original matching or renumbered after a rebuild by the arsenal is always nice.
With those of course you'll have to clean up cosmoline but that's part of the fun of buying a surplus gun! Just depends on what kind of Mauser you want. Originally Posted by cipherk I'll jump right in here and say what everyone else avoided in the discussion of bore condition.

It's probably safe to shoot but won't be comfortable to shoot and the clips will be a real pain to deal with. They have to be converted to accept the 8mm round. Not necessarily a bad thing for shooting but as mentioned above Yugo M48's can be found for the same price and they were rarely used much at all and many are like new.
Years back I did the Allentown Gunshow on a regular basis. No idea what it is like now, but you will find lots of nice stuff at the big gunshows. Allentown Gunshow is pricy.
I don't go very often for that reason. You might find something you won't find anywhere else but you need to be prepared to pay for it. Can't quite figure it out as there are numerous large shows that the same people can or will attend, Harrisburg, Oaks near Philly, Bloomsburg. The front sights are of the open, barleycorn type and on some carbines, removable semi-circular front sight hoods. Email: [email protected]. Toggle navigation Modern Firearms.
Mauser model 98 Germany. Collapse all. Mauser M Madsen M Carcano M Arisaka 38 and Mosin-Nagant Rifle. FR-7, FR Hakim Rasheed. FG 42 G. AG Ljungman. Also ive seen stores that have their in stock firearms online, and some of them just say Mauser Is that a mistake or is their another model that I do not know of? Oh, where to start. I responded to this very same question about three years ago.
The response received a lot of rep points at the time. I went to find it, but it seems that posts beyond are not available? In summary: 1.
I agree with Daltrey stay away from Mitchell Mausers. They have no collector value. OK if you want a nice looking shooter, but not worth the money. They rework RCs Russian Captures , grind off the markings and restamp the numbers to match. Russian captures are entry level. Bolt mis-match bring backs. A veteran bring-back that is all matching except the bolt. Nice honest condition if you want collector value. Prices have fallen a little recently, but will rise again.
Estate auctions, and other local sources can get you a better price. Again having a friend look at it helps. Less popular and cheaper, but catching on fast. What do you guys think about these prices? They are both in good condition, but obviously I will need to check em out before any final decision is made. See Majspud above. He is right on.
Bore, matching numbers, condition are what make it something you should be in the top of the zone or the bottom. I never liked the look of them but that's just me. Check gunbroker for prices.
