Re: Banner Mauser 7x57 from India

"Made in Germany" without German proofmarks, only Belgian ones? Small ring WW1 Kar 98a action, military shape, with post-1922 "Mauser Werke AG" and Mauser Banner? (Mauser, Oberndorf , did not make small ring 98 actions after 1900, except the short "K" ones. Kar98 A actions were most often made by Erfurt arsenal, closed down 1922.) Non-matching (extractor, ejector housing), non-Mauser serial Numbers in the wrong places? "Cal.7mm" on top of barrel instead on left side? Very slim stock without checkered pistol grip, but with a big trough behind tang, unlike any Mauser B or C stock I have seen? IMHO VERY DUBIOUS!!!
