This is my first post...I love this site, very helpful.
I recently inherited what looks like a Mauser from my grand father. I am not new to rifles as I am an avid hunter but I am not very knowledgeable with this peticular rifle. I have been trying to do some research and I cant find any info on it on the web so I am trying here. I will then be taking it to my gunsmith for further info.
On the left side of the receiver there is some numbers and letters...
NAC RID N.J.
Underneather one line down is 9052 to the right of that just a smidge is 98.TH.
On the top of the reciever there is a symbol that looks to have an A T F. But they are imposed on top of one another.
under the symbol is 1954
On the handle to release the bolt is 5623 with a B on top of it.
If you pull the bolt back there is a star stamped on the base and the numbers. As well as a 48 stamped into the tray that supports the extra shells.
Any help would be great I am excited to learn anything about this piece as it was my grand fathers who was in WWII.
On a side note he had a few other Mausers and a butt load of 7.92 army issue with silver bullets and 8mm remmington. and neither of the two rounds fit in this peticular rifle... so I have no idea what to try and see what fits now..
Thanks again for any help...
