Hi all,
First, THANK YOU ALL for all the help/info. on the double trigger, re-chambered 45-70 I inquired about last week.
As promised, below is a LINK to my sporterized, 7x57 Mauser. I purchased this at a gun show on Long Island, NY around 1997-1998 (can't find the receipt atm). My dad and I came across it on a table, and initially thought it was a rimfire or small cartridge centerfire (22 Hornet? 243?, etc. We were impressed with the stock work, and light weight/balance of the rifle. I really like small firearms and Savage 99s (99G in 250-3000Sav. and a 99F in .300Sav.) are my favorites. The best is, this Mauser was $300 OTD, The ONLY thing I added was the slim sling. It shoots well, is a pleasure to carry in the woods, and if I have ONE complaint about the rifle, it would be the (obviously military) safety. It's not exactly quick, OR quiet. Not really in search of info., like my last posting, but, if anyone can tell me more than I know about the rifle, I'd be happy. Thanks, and have a great weekend! -TomT
