I have an old 98 Mauser in 30-06 with a full mannlicher stock, silent slide safety, double set triggers, shadow line cheekpiece, tasteful engraving on the trigger gaurd and top of the reciever, claro walnut stock with fine line checkering in excellent condition (has been drilled and tapped) this is a gorgeous gun and very well balanced with a weight of just over 7 lbs. The maker has signed the inside of the butt plate.
Has anyone seen another one of these? Does anyone know if this could be an original Mauser 77 mannlicher as listed in the 29th Edition of the Blue Book at the top of page 1182 or is it more likely to have been custom built? I have had it to Dick Williams gun shop and they weren't sure, neither was Williams Gunsight in Davison Mi. Either way, I thought you folks might enjoy seeing it.
