Re: Stainless mauser actions

I am pleased, and relieved, you are happy with the Zastava action you obtained.

I am having a left hand rifle built around a chrome-Moly Charles Daly / Zastava action. Like you, I had read many negative comments on the net about these actions. Your action looks much better than I had expected from the comments.

I remember the old Mark X / Interarms of Manchester, UK Yugoslavian (as it was then) Mauser actions. These came as the Whitworth and Windsor medium rifles: .270, .308 and .30-06 etc rifles.

One had a clasic stock shape, the other was a Monte Carlo configuration. I seem to remember the Whitworth had the classic stock. There was also an Express / magnum rifle chambered for .375H&H and .458Win.

These rifles were at the time, 1980s - 1990s, well received in the UK. I remember them as being better than the old Parker Hale ? Santa Barbera? Mausers.

I hope to have my rifle this Summer. It is nice to be able to find, and afford!, a left hand true controlled round feed Mauser.
