Re: Mauser Afrika models

Notice that in the image from above post that the rifle closest to the chap in his Sola Topi appears to be one of the long Afrika Mausers. Notice the 3/4 length stock and length overall compared to the other rifle visible in the image.
I'd guess that that rifle is an 1888 Mauser looking at the bottom metal and the 10.75x68 is the one against the elephant's head. Not a great picture for a positive ID though.
Of course, if I really use my imagination, the rifle on the right looks like an under lever falling block of some sort!
