Default Mauser malady...........

Thanks guys....She has matching serial numbers on the grips(pristine),mag follower,firing pin retaining plate, underside of sight,frame....that I've been able to see so far. Stock is also numbered with minty screws and blued metal innards.

It appears that someone recently field stripped and oiled her, but put something in the wrong spot. Maybe you can't insert the rocker coupling incorrectly in a normal Broomie, but this IS a Conehammer! I have her sitting in a hand made mahogany case that includes the stock, DM marked clip and ammo. I just need the PUTZSTOCK cleaning rod, and I'm all set!

Beautiful finish on the old girl. I plan to keep it that way during and AFTER the "operation".

Cheers,

Bill
