Mauser Purchase

Those are the only markings on the rifle
 
I have a number of commercial Oberndorf sporters, but this one is among my favorites: caliber 6.5X57, half round, half octagon barrel with a full length rib. Griffin & Howe windage adjustable side mount, the scope has been replaced with a Lyman Alaskan, custom stock, maker unknown, but fits beautifully.

it is awful, but a drilling or combination gun would be a legendary predator gun if you put a scope on for before dark and a thermal for night shooting. I have considered it many times for some pesky coyotes and bobcats that seem to come out from all directions and distances.
He have many films of using a Bd14 ( Blaser Bock Drilling 1xshotgun and 1x small bore,1xlarge bore) drilling or R93 with nightscope on for deer culling ,and fox etc also. It works very good for his use and situations,

This is probably the most mississippi thing you'll hear all day but we have a pretty serious beaver problem here. They are remarkably tough and I often see coyotes/bobcats/foxes while I'm waiting on them. I always thought a combo or drilling would be awesome with a night scope assuming you don't let the optic bite you.

You also have Bergstutzen, 1xsmall rifle,1 x larger. Blaser make them also, say .22 Hornet and 7x57R or other. Or 5,6x50 R , 8x57Jrs or somethint different

But a ordinary drilling with a insertion barrel you can put in i you need it would be a option also.

Some use drilling in 7x57R for Beaver,fox, roe deer and so here, Plus its Moose legal also.

Earlier Nightscope meant large bell size scope, x50,x56 . One with illuminated reticle would be a good option also.


I heard about a Foxshooter with a Blaser combogun he wanted the Zeiss then new model 6-24x72 on his combo. Gunstore here at first refused to sell him it ,said it would be for big, but he got it,and have taken countless fox and other game.


Blasers you can regulaze yourself,so it save good bi of time and ammo options.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
