Oberndorf Intermediate Action Barrel Shank
|
Hello Guys
I have what I believe is a Mauser Model B sporter, built I think on what is termed the "intermediate" action. Stamped WAFFENFABRIK MAUSER OBERNDORF A/N 1910
According to some references these were a small (.980) shank barrel. It there any way to determine this for sure without pulling the existing barrel ?
Thanks

I'm no expert but if I understand correctly, because the barrel torques onto the C / H ring inside the front receiver ring, the barrel at the receiver is / should be the same dia. as the threads. FWIW --- John303.

If the caliber is 7x57 and the bolt shorter than the standard length and the action overall length has the same length than the standard mauser ( large ring , longer front receiver ring) it is absolutely for sure that the barrel has the small threads.

Thanks justcurious. Yes, this describes my rifle exactly.
If I wanted to keep an eye out for a replacement stock on egun, how would this action be described in German ?

here in Germany there is the designation the same as for You " Intermediate System " . You should ad
" wie Perumauser ".
But I think you are wasting your time. HaveŽnt seen any in the last 6 years on egun.
The only commercial riflestocks for this action were made together with the Original Oberndorf prewar Sporters.
And they are rare. A leftover stock even more so.
What you can find are the Military rifle stocks for the Perumauser(very often).
Postwar rifles(stocks) for that action are always a custom proposition.
Good luck !
