Walther Model B

Does anyone know about the Walther model b built on Mauser actions? I've found one in 270 Win that is in reasonable original condition. Can't find much information on them. It has a boehler barrel and the sights appear to be the same as some early Mauser Sporters.

I assume this one has the side grip safety? I owned one for a while in 30-06. I was unlucky with that rifle and never found a load that it liked. Probably just a finicky rifle rather than a design issue. The stock on mine was of typically slim German design that I like. I would think that it would be a solid mauser in that caliber.

That's the one, still has the flag safety as well. Fairly plain stock but slim and fits well.

I assume that they aren't rare and shouldn't be messed with
