Thanks specks.<br />I have not had time to go and get it.<br />I have my guns stored in safe keeping for a while now.

Re: SBN Your Mauser

Perhaps we see different features, S&R. <br /><br />I see a standard Mauser M98, Military Type with a rounded end on the pistol grip (no cap), which should identify it as a pre-WWI manufacture. It was offered in 7X57, 8X57 and 9X57mm Mauser calibers.<br /><br />Pre-WWI manufacture can be verified if the name on it is "Waffenfabrik Mauser A.G.". After WWI the name was changed to "Mauser-Werke A.G.".<br /><br />Now I am interested in what SBN really has. <br /><br />If my identification is correct, the Gun Trader Guide of 2000 listed it's value, in excellent condition, as $525. It may have appreciated since then.<br /><br />Now, SBN, you gotta go look at it.

Well what I can see and tell, my flip up sites have not got that curve look to them.<br />They lay flat against the gun.<br /><br />Mine does have the dust cover over the bolt.<br />Has a funny looking thing on the butt that looks like some kind of little door.<br /><br />I don't know, but have put it back away.<br />Don't want no guns in the house that I don't need or use.<br /><br />One pistol and thats it.<br />The rest are in a safe.<br />Thanks specks.

Another observation I made today.<br />It has some kind of little markings right on top in front of bolt.<br />Can't make it out enough to see what it is.<br /><br />It looks like someting in a circle.<br /><br />Also noticed there are no nymbers on this gun, anywhere.<br /><br />Guess maybe they have wore off over time.
