Huvius, Chinese products on the whole a are crap mainly because of the use of poor materials and heat treatment. With modern CNC machines anyone can produce components that are well machined but it is what you can't see that makes the difference and that is material composition, heat treatment and surface coatings, something that the Chinese have far from mastered. The only time that Chinese made products are any good is if the product control and manufacturing methods etc. are controlled by Western companies.

As to the modern Mauser actions, those made by companies such as Prechtl, Mayfair, GMA etc., the quality of which is second to none. They are made to tolerances and with materials and heat treatment methods that companies of a hundred years ago could only have dreamt of. While they don't have any history or they may not be as nostalgic, they are better made in every respect.

Waidmannsheil.
