Thanks all for the comments and replies. This is an amazing forum, I enjoy stealing ideas from others projects and original guns!

I spent an hour or so draw filing and shaping the ejector of my Mauser tonight. I am planning on experimenting with rust bluing on the smaller parts. I will need a larger tank for boiling the barrel and action, anyone have experience with this?

BTW, I named that file "Flat Bastard" in honor of the Austin Powers character!
