According to ithacaartist "Barrels are measured overall, from muzzle to the face of the bolt. Yours is the standard 4"/ 100 mm length--there's just more of it screwed into the receiver/barrel extension that is not visible."
Again I remeasured repeatedly the length of the barrel and still the exact length is 3.12" or 80mm. I respectfully disagree with the above quoted observation because of the stopper of the barrel and also the witness mark is almost aligned. Did they allow this minimal deviation from the standard length? Or since this is a replacement could this be a rejected part they decided to use? Could it be why there is no number in the barrel? After all it is said that Mauser made use of all available parts.
