Hi Steve. A wonderful find for you, I dream of coming across something like this.
As you probably know it's a 1942 Mauser, (the grips have the sales pitch name 'black widow'). The whole package looks very nice.
The experts will come along and fill in the details I'm sure.
I believe a majority of collectors will consider Mr Martins enthusiastic marking of his property a detriment to value though.
Looking forward to reading the follow up on your new purchase.
Stu
