Help me identify my mauser

Nice rifle. made 1925 btw.

It certainly is more "TypeB" than anything else and I believe original although the stock is more TypeC style being uncheckered.
The Cs generally had military barrels but I imagine they had many different configurations so this could be classified as a C.
That silver escutcheon on the wrist gives me pause. Usually something in that spot is inserted to fill old peep sight holes.
I've never seen one just like it.

I’m waiting to see if the bottom metal is serialized. Possibly it’s a type c that someone put the levered bottom metal on?
 
The magazine box will be stamped on the back wall.
It looks like the front ring is dated 1914 or is it 1924?
The serial number puts it at 1925 (maybe 1924) in Speed’s book.

It reads 1914 to me as well. And yeah I looked in Speeds book to for the date of 24/25.

Were type c’s not sold with stepped military barrels?

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
