mauser question WWII or purchased from company after the war?
Mauser makes great firearms no doubt about it. They have continued their legacy still making fine hunting rifles. Many years ago my grandfather purchased one very cheap because he was in need of a hunting rifle. The bluing and outer part of the barrel were a little rough but safe, and the barrel is mint, as it still is today. It has a different stock than ones from WWII tapering and only going halfway down the barrel and only covering the bottom half. It has a sight with a deer on it which isn’t from the war. How can I tell if it is a rifle that was a war rifle and made into a hunting weapon like they did with many 303′s and Springfields after the war, or purchased directly from the company post war intended for hunting instead of war?
Look for Nazi markings. If it has them, then check the bolt handle. Does it stick straight out, or is it bent down? A straight one is an older Gewehr 98 model, while a bent down bolt is most likely a karabiner 98. My grandfather gave me a Kar98k, and it had a similar stock…no upper half and handgaurd cut shorter. He sporterized it by cutting the stock, but it was otherwise original.
Some GIs returning from WWII brought back Mausers and cut the stock short and unscrewed the stock from the action so they would fit in duffel bags. This is called a duffel bag cut. If it has a deer any where on it its not from the war rifle. -There are several mauser variants with half-cut stocks from the factory but are fairly rare.
Check the top of the receiver for markings such as duo, dot, byz, etc. This was the manufacture factory. The two numbers below it signifying the year assembled.
If it has no marks like this, then its either a mauser of another origin, eg. Swedish, Turkish, Persian, Argentinian, etc. Or probably a reproduction sporter model mauser.
If its an 8mm caliber, be careful on the ammo you buy. Older mausers like the gewehr 98 used a cal. .318 bore, while newer models use a .323 bore. However, both may be just simply referred to as 7.92x57mm or 8mm mauser. Sometimes they have designations such as ‘IS’ or ‘JS’. IS referring to cal. .318 while the latter is .323.
