Return to M1891, I bet the crest was grounded off? Handshaking sign was part of the crest. See this instance, the 1st picture shows the crest.

Yes, both my rifles have crest ground off. My books say this was done by Argentine Military. Surplus rifles were sold to neighboring countries. Argentina did not want one neighbor to think they were arming another, so identifying crests were ground off. This is unlikely, as the receivers still say "Mauser Modelo Argentino 1891'...
But GB ad is correct - Rifles with crest intact are rare.
