It looks like it's been refinished

>>31577907
its got its original walnut stock. all matching except for the bolt, but some came from factory with mismatched bolts, I'll have to look into that.

the best of these guns were picked up by the norwegian police possibly refinished and put into storage.

The bolt is from the right year. And is numbered å little earlier than the rifle.
Since its a 1940 gun i doubt it came mismatched from factory.
Most likely a Herman replacement or possibly å police replacement.
Wfa 63 is Brno. And m3 is some batch number thing

>>31578005
450 dolaridos. Dude i dont think people Are bothering refinishing these in norway. Especially not the ones marked politi.

Nice little carbine. It's interesting that there were enough G.33/40 left behind in your country for it to become a police service rifle.

>>31578363
yeah we had alot of gebirgsjaegers stationed here, I've heard there were around 13000 rifles that were used after the war by various people.
norwegian trains actually carry a completely original g33/40 with no post ww2 markings, to kill off run over wildlife.
they're still pretty rare compared to the over hundred thousands k98ks that were left here

Haven't shot it yet; the stock has a couple cracks in the wrist that need repairing before I do so. Also the firing pin tip has been clipped off; this may have been one of the "War Bond" captured rifles given away as prizes on the US home-front during WW1. I don't have high hopes for it though; the bore is pitted and frosted throughout.

I do have another long Mauser 98 8x57 rifle that is my "shooting Mauser" (pic related), and there's really very little difference compared to shooting one of the short rifles. The rear sight zero being the most obvious difference; starting at 400m isn't very convenient. Short rifles are also a little easier to wield because they're slightly lighter and their center of gravity more toward the rear.

Looking for a cheap Mauser. ~$300 preferred. Have no clue what to look for in a Mauser, have collected Mosins for years. Does the same routine of checking for matching serials, stock condition, bore condition, rust, etc apply? What else is important to Mausers specifically? What chambering is best? I am thinking either a Yugo M48 or a Turkish Mauser as they're in my price range. Possibly Spanish (they look different, are they good/bad?) Not looking for a collectible, just looking for a good shooter.

MFW I have no clue about these guns but /k/ made me want one.

>Does the same routine of checking for matching serials, stock condition, bore condition, rust, etc apply?
Yes. Check out the Military Mausers forum on Gunboards for a couple stickied threads showing numerous Mauser models and their markings.
>What chambering is best?
8x57 is most widely available.
>I am thinking either a Yugo M48 or a Turkish Mauser as they're in my price range.
Either are good. Turks are usually quite cheap because they were so well-used for so long, though they can still be quite good shooters. Yugoslavian rifles were often refurbished multiple times during their service life, and were well-maintained in storage after the Yugos adopted 7.62x39mm.
>Possibly Spanish (they look different, are they good/bad?)
Not really bad, but Spain had 7x57mm and 8x57mm rifles at various times. The Spanish M93-based models are older, and saw a lot of use, especially during the Spanish Civil War. They switched to 8x57 in 1943, so their M98-based Mausers in 8x57 are usually in good condition because they didn't see much combat, and are cheap because of same.

Hey, thanks for the detailed answer! I think I'll check out a Turkish Mauser on sale near me (going for $275). If it's in poor condition I might just go for a Yugo for a little more. Thanks again!

Here's a couple pages detailing various Ottoman Empire/Turkish Republic Mauser models; the vast majority you'll encounter will be re-built to the 1930s standard chambered in 8x57mm.

What model and caliber, and is it still in military trim?

How much does a decent m1903a3 Springfield cost? Preferably one with a higher serial number, for quality.

>>31585361
A3s are all high numbers. You need to do more research before you buy something like this.

>>31584990
Nope its legit.

>>31585021
Its the 8mm, didn't get a good look at the numbers, guessing sometime in the 1930's.

>>31585567
Alright thanks, do you know the average price that someone might sell one for?

>>31585743
<Its the 8mm
Brazilian Mausers were all 7x57mm; the only countries in Latin America that used any 8x57mm Mausers were Ecuador and Nicaragua.

And a few other marks near the mum that I have no idea about

>>31586712
That serial number places it around late 1942/early 1943. Hoten Arsenal (Mukden is the Chinese name) was still making Type 38s very late into the war.

The stock has been sanded and refinished, unfortunately.

>>31586719
Those are just various inspection stamps.

>>31586816
I thought the stock may have been restained sometime between capture and when I inherited it, bore is bright and everything else is smooth and tight. I was always told my great-grandfather captured it during his tour in the Pacific.

Should I sell my type 53 meme nugget and get a m48a yugo mauser?

Bought the 53 in 2014 for $99, but missed out on the cheap ammo, never shot it. Any idea how much I could get for it?

Online I could probably get a m48a for $300 after fees and such. Ammo seems like a problem though, seems like steel cased 8mm is pretty off and on production wise. This stuff says it's works for post ww2 bore demensions, but I heard it doesn't work m48's (post war but captured tooling iirc).

Would it be worth it to try and find some reloading equipment so I could get into 8mm mauser?

>>31590244
forgot the link to the ammo

http://www.sportsmansguide.com/product/index/mauser-8x57mm-js-323-bore-non-wwii-dimensions-fmj-170-grain-20-rounds?a=1741208

also I could live with a single stage press, I don't plan on opening an ammo factory so I could live with being slower at reloading.

>>31590258
Yeah a single stage press is good enough for a bolt action.

>>31590258
Whoa I had no idea 8mm mauser were that expensive over the pond. I can get brass cased 196 grain for the same price

Does anyone have opinions on J&G Sales 1916 Spanish Mausers? They look pretty rough, and have had their markings removed. Would it be worth getting?
http://www.jgsales.com/spanish-1916-mauser-bolt-action-short-rifle,-7x57,-good-condition,-used.-p-80642.html
Also they have ones in 7.62x51, is it safe to use modern ammo in them? I thought I read a while ago that the Spanish FR8 had trouble with new 7.62x51 ammo.

>>31590713
What's wrong with Romanian 8mm?

>>31593767
Not very accurate, and can cause sticky bolt.
