There is a company over in the US that repair old scopes, can’t remember the name of them, I recall reading about them on the ASSRA forum, father and daughter or something like that.

Well, I installed an Jack 2.5x52, Berlin so.33 WWI Sniper scope. Although very old, this has optics that are clear enough for shooting.
Next stop will be the range to test it out.

Did we ever figure out if the first rifle was a reblue?

I believe that first rifle was NOT re blued. It has the same finish as several of other early Mauser Sporters. Regardless, macht nichts, to me.

Fascinating. @Themauserkid has your conclusion varied from your earlier assessment?

I have no idea the shipping cost from here to Costa Rica. I can do my research on shipping and get back with you later today.
