I got this rifle from an old gunsmith, he said it was for a M98, but it doesn’t match the ones I have in hand. Does anyone have an idea what rifle this would fit? The silver one is the one in question

And by rifle; I mean trigger
 
Looks pretty identical to the trigger on a Heym 720BEHM that I inherited, albeit mine is not labeled (but I'm almost certain it is a Timney). This rifle is based on a commercial Mauser 98 design, so your gunsmith friend is probably right about what it fits.

I wasn’t sure because of the different seer shapes

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

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
