Have been on the Mauser website over the past few days, and I’m not seeing anything on the M12. Maybe they’re just updating their site, but the huge disappointment of dropping the M03 wasn’t that long ago. Hope they keep making it.
 
When I bought my first M12, it was cheaper, no low cost but cheaper.
Today they have the same price that old M03
I have 2 M12, in 2013 i bought one in 7mmRM and Last year I bought another with thumbhole in 338wm, called MAX

I change wooden stock, put thumbhole to 7mmRM and normal wood to 338wm With muzzle brake.

I had to buy from the store because they were going to withdraw from the market.
They have released 3 new variants of the M18.
I think that little by little they are going to put aside the M12


Let's not forget that Mauser is under the same roof as Sauer and Blaser

I can see 6 variations of M12, with prices and all details as well.

Very good! Must have been website maintenance or something a few days ago….. just showed the M18 and M98 guns then. Fine rifles, glad they’re going to be around longer.
 
I have been looking at the mausers and it seems they have two different websites. One site just shows the m18 and m12 the other just shows the m98 and m18. Both are their US sites. I thought it was weird too. Not sure which is the most up to date website.
 
Mauser’s display here in Nashville just has the M98, including the DWM which is very cool, and the M18. Their 2023 “catalog” is nothing more than a small pamphlet, showing the 98 and 18.
 
Forgot… that 125 year commemorative M98 or whatever it is, also in display. That’s a beautiful work.
 
Wouldn’t surprise me to see Mauser drop everything that isn’t the 98 or M18 and let Blaser and Sauer fill the middle ground. It doesn’t seem like they’re supporting the 404 much over here either, which is a shame.
 
Would like to have one one day. Not sure how I feel about the two tone scheme on the special edition one
I was thinking the same thing, but that wood gave me a bit of wood!
 
Dropping the M03 was terrible! I absolutely love mine and it shoots brilliantly.
While they’re cheap and do the job, I just don’t think of the M18 as a real Mauser. The M12 is an excellent rifle and I considered buying one, but it seems they have press fit barrels so I dropped the idea.
 
Looks like Mauser’s website finally posted a 2023 catalog for download. Includes the M12.

Hallo Marius- do you have possibilities for stags in September during the roar? Where are your hunting areas in Romania?

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on another rifle but would love to see your rifle first, any way you could forward a pic or two?
Thanks,

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
