Gentlemen, I just purchased two 8mm Mauser and a Lee Enfield .303 british at a going out of business aution here in western NY.
The first is an 8mm Mauser Model M48A, #24031 all numbers match except the bolt, it had been fitted with an Iron Elite scope mount and a bent handle bolt. The stock is in nice shape, it looks original. I added the Bushnell 3-9 scope. It shoots great using PPU 8mm shells. I paid $155 for it. I think its a Yugo made in 1944 but I'm not sure.
The 2nd is also an 8mm Mauser Model 1924, #251827 all numbers match. I also have shot this weapon with no problems. I paid $380 for this one. I added the bayonet that i bought on Ebay, it is a Czech CSZ M #22410.
The third is a Lee Enfield SMLE No1. Mk3. #65238, all numbers match. It is stamped GRI 1949. The stock has brand marks on it with the letters DTE in circle. I shot some Wolf 303 British thru it, shoots nice. I paid $180 for this one.
If anyone can add any details about these, please post. Thanks.
