I’m diving into the deep specifics of Mauser development. Or I’m trying to.
Where exactly did Mauser stretch the bolt between their various models?
I’ve got a 93, 95, and 98 bolt available to me, and I don’t believe the 94 and 96 have any significant changes. I am fairly certain the length of the Yugoslav M24 series is the same as the length of the 93-96. Obviously the bolt is different, but I believe the length is the same. Likewise, I believe a K98AZ is the same length as the large ring K98.
In any case, if anyone has a Yugoslav M24 series bolt he could photograph alongside a 93-96 bolt I would appreciate it. If this is impossible, a photo of an M24 bolt alongside a large ring K98 bolt would also be appreciated.
My hypothesis is that the Yugoslavs shortened the action in the same place(s) that the 93 was lengthened to start with. Anyone care to assuage my curiosity? Thanks!
