Thread: Oberndorf Mauser

@norsk geez thats a nice one. Greener safety and all.
Would love one like that. Much jealous.

This threads a bit old , but here's another oldy but a goody to get the juices flowing for those us us that like them , 3006 made in 1923 with factory fitted scope

Hi I'm a new member,great mauser! Here's a pick of mine a 250 savage mauser b k action with ajack scope and mounts circa 1930

Here's 2 more oberndorf rifles,a engraved mauser 66 in 3006 and a 66 safari in 375hh

Oops, I see I never posted pics of my ones . . .





Top to bottom:

1924 ish Model C "intermediate" action, rebarrelled a long time ago to 303, currently looking for a bolt for it
1920s Model B Kurz , completely rebuilt from a "no bolt" wreck by Dave Ward and rebarrelled in 6.5x47
1919 Model B Kurz, totally original in 8x51

If anybody knows of an "intermediate"bolt or a sporterized rifle (1903 Turk, 1935 Argentinian, 1909 Peruvian) with one I'd love to hear about it, the Model C rebuilt with a new 7x57 barrel in the proper profile would be very special and uncommon.

Now that's a decent size barrel, no need to worry about long range shooting.micky duck should have one of these.

Nah it’s just the angle that photo has been taken , that Kurz rifles are surprisingly small and light , here’s one’s next to a 9.3 x 62 , it makes the K look small

Yep I think it's my phone pic,the k is about the same size as the engraved 66 in 3006,both feel very solid!,it's also more trimmer then my 7x57 brno 21.

Thats 5 kurz mausers in one thread. Wonder how many are in NZ.

I know of at least one other, a Model B 250-3000, as new* with factory fitted scope - last seen about 10 years ago. Several people have tried to buy it over the years, no sucess.

* the owners son decided the stock was too glossy so sanded it down including the checkering, and rubbed it with virgin (not boiled) linseed, thereby converting what was probably a US$5K rifle to a fraction of that. Oh well SIGH

How many Kurz in NZ ? ….I have personally seen 9 , a few of those have gone to Aussie or SA now though , 2 of those were Type A ‘s , one of them was stunning with a scope and probably the nicest one I have seen , @Tentman I have not heard or seen the mint one you mentioned , bloody shame but it could be re-checkered and finished I guess and still be a bloody nice rifle .

Yeah she’s got a few holes but still looks bloody good , that side safety is very nice and not very common , love the patina on it

Cheers. That side safety is just part of the Parker Hale trigger, definitely not original

Like it.
An old rifle should look like its had a bit of use.
