One thing that I don't like postwar Mauser -- although being original, they look like refurbished if judged by pre-1945 "check list"..... the chamber crest is blurred (if there is an Eagle), the muzzle band edge is not sharp, the crown is blued, the frame ear looks horrible, the grip panels looks re-checked, etc, etc. Old rules/standards do not apply to post-war.

I heard they were cast, not milled (?)
