Thread: Oberndorf Mauser

To liven this thread back up , here are 4 different bolts short ,intermediate and 2 x standard length , one with standard handle and one with flat , the only one missing is a magnum which I do not have , nice reference photo that some may find interesting.

Will be selling my Oberndorf Kurz in .250 Savage shortly when I can get some photos done.

Yes replied sorry been busy

Pretty sure that's where Graeme Champion gets his from.

I think in some of those countries your only allowed a few rifles. Bit hard for collectors.

Yeah that makes sense

I have posted this before but it kind of fits into this thread:

Pre war small ring Mauser, originally a Military Carbine made by Erfurt. Converted into a Sporter by Wolf in Austria in the 1930s.

Then rebarreled probably in Norway with a Kongsberg barrel and Reknagle swing off mounts and open sights with night beed fitted as well as a model 70 safety added.

Plenty of engraving, mint bore, came with a Swaro vari power with 30mm tube.

Paid less for the whole lot than what a bare Tikka T3 sets you back over here.

Its my main hunting Rifle, i look after it but it still comes on week long backpack hunts. I just oil it every night

A true work of art.

really nice @norsk , especially being a small ring as well , bottom metal and trigger guard look very much like a Brno 21 with the Mauser lever latch added , thanks for the pics

Those swing off mounts are worth a bomb!
Wanted them on my rifle but the price was eye watering!

I use the swing off mounts more than I thought I would.If I am travelling some distance I remove the scope,or walking in for a long way the scope rides wrapped in some clothing in the top of my pack.I feel Rifles carry much better "bare".The open sights are surprisingly good,almost like a Ghost ring with the foresight floating.
