Re: The Mauser M03

Quite a few of them have been imported into SA. They have almost zero resale value here, especially in the larger calibres.

Here's a hint: take one in .404, load the mag to capacity, and cycle it REALLY fast and vigorous. It won't be long and you will have the bolt in one hand and the rifle in the other. It's easy to fix as well. Just put the bolt back and it works again. I know of two of them who have these symptoms.

The M66 had the same problem, I'm told.

Anything Mauser produced after 1939, well, you are on your own as far as I'm concerned.
