Model 98 Mauser Serial Numbers Manufacture Date

Excellent info, itcboy. I added it to my Mauser data file. I've always been irritated by those who lump the Gewehr 88 Commission Rifle in with Mausers, when in fact Paul Mauser had no hand in it.

All Model 1893's and Model 1916's have a rib on the left side of the receiver wall, and the bolt face is squared off at the bottom. All were originally chambered in 7mm Mauser. Serial numbers usually consist of a single letter, or '2' and a single letter, followed by anywhere from one to four numbers (usually four). Examples: E6578, 2N3375, etc. The Mauser rifle began firing 'Spitzer' or pointed projectiles with the Mauser 98 model. The word 'Mauser' can refer either to the German weapons manufacturer, the Mauser-Werke Oberndorf Waffensysteme GmbH, or to the series of bolt-action rifles the Mauser-Werke manufacturered for the German armed forces.

I once bought a Steyr M95M at a pawnshop, where it was being tauted as a 'Mauser rifle' by virtue of it's being chambered for the 7.92X57 cartridge. I recently bought a Chinese T53 Carbine from another shop who were labeling it a 'Japanese rifle' due to it's chinese characters on the barrel. Sometimes this works in our favor, allowing us to get a good deal from someone who doesn't know the guns. Even so, I usually try to educate the seller on what it really is.

Most don't really care. Dale: Seems you get a lot of well meaning gun enthusiast that help to contribute to the spread of misinformation. Your quote also got me to thinking how religion & guns are connected. It baffles me when on the gun auction sites where the sellers have 'God Bless American', or 'God bless our Troops' in their ads. How patriot is it when an American embraces an invented Middle Eastern death God of the Desert? He's NOT even our God.

Can't we be more patriotic & embrace one of a hundred of our own North American Gods? Or better yet, let's all work together to put all three of the Desert revelation religions (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) on the book shelves with Greek Mythology books? Windows 7 64 bit keygen.

This way humanity can continue to move forward instead of holding on to the past & ancient superstitious texts? Better to connect Guns with SCIENCE. There is a lot of confusion when it comes to older military rifles.

For example often you will see mention of the Mosin Nagant in discussions about Mausers when the MN is not one. The facts you mentioned, and others that pick up reading, are the things that amaze me about the older military guns. But, what intrigues me the most is the histories behind some of these grand old guns. __________________ 'It confuses me how some people can vigorously go against the 2nd.

Cheapblaster, Century has never been known for historical accuracy. From what I have read over the years, the 'Bosnian Mauser' is the M-48BO model, which some incorrectly consider the 'BO' designation as meaning 'Bosnian'. So again, misinformation becomes internet legend. I would not feel bad in modifying ANY M-48 variant - other owners may feel differently. But, my own M-48A is still in issue condition. If you can find it, try some of the 70's production Yugo 8mm ammo - that is very good ammo!
