I purchased this Mauser at an auction after a brief inspection. The tag says German model 98 Sporterized.
Sort of an impulse thing but I liked how it felt and it looked like it had been well cared for.
So now I go digging around on the internet and I am at a loss to figure out what it is and what it is chambered in.
What I can find on it:
On the left side of the receiver: Model 98 & 35261
Top of receiver: 44 & byf in lower case letters
On barrel close to receiver: 440906
Bottom of the floor plate: 6024
What do you think I have here?
